The latest trend is blue hour portraiture — everyone desires it for weddings, headshots, etc. We’re so happy that this trend has made a return. The Blue Hour takes the idea of backlighting a portrait and throws it away in favor of placing a subject within the mood. In the Phoblographer’s 16 years of testing cameras, lenses and lights, we’ve made several portraits during the blue hour. And so I’m dipping into our archives to pull images and tutorials that we’ve done in the past.
