Yes, even in winter the sunsets show up — and so does the magic


This golden hour family session at Raglan was captured right in the middle of winter, but you’d never guess it from the light. With soft skies, warm tones, and bare feet in the sand, it felt like the best kind of in-between season.


Here’s a look at some of my favourite images from a session that proves winter sunsets are always worth it.
