5:00 pm Sunset Silhouette Session at the Entrance Gate
For our final shoot of the day, we will transition to the front entrance gate for sunset and backlight photography.
This session will focus on creating silhouettes and backlit images using the setting sun as a dramatic backdrop. The changing light at this time of day offers beautiful opportunities for strong shapes, warm tones, and storytelling moments.
Lisa will provide brief instruction and guidance before we begin. Staff will be available throughout the session to assist with camera settings, review images, and help with any needs.
To ensure everyone has a great experience, shooting positions will be managed so participants have priority access and clear views of the scene.
This is a relaxed and creative way to close out the day while taking advantage of the best evening light.

 Example Images – Sunset & Backlight
The images below show the types of silhouettes and backlit portraits that work well during sunset. These examples highlight how strong shapes, clean outlines, and warm evening light can create simple but powerful western images. Notice how positioning your subject against the sky, exposing for the highlights, and using dust or atmosphere can add mood and depth while keeping the focus on storytelling and form.
