View plansHow To Control Mood And Atmosphere With The Golden Hour Effect?
During the golden hour, the sun's light has to travel through more of the Earth's atmosphere, which scatters the blue and green wavelengths. This results in a warm, golden light that's softer and more flattering. This gentle light can make your subjects appear more attractive and help reduce harsh shadows and highlights.
Why Choose A Golden Hour Filter For Your Photos?
The low angle of the sun during the golden hour creates long shadows that can add depth and dimension to your photos.
This can help accentuate textures, shapes, and contours, making your subjects appear more three-dimensional and interesting. Achieve it all with the right golden hour photo settings.

Frequently Asked Questions
How to edit golden hour photos?
You can specifically plan to shoot photos in the golden hour, but if you missed that time frame, you can use any golden hour filter app to add the stunning effect in post-processing. Use Luminar Neo to do so in just one quick slide.

Can I manually adjust the intensity of the golden hour effect using the filter?

How to edit sunlight out of photos?
Editing sunlight out of photos can be challenging because sunlight often creates strong highlights and shadows that can be difficult to remove while maintaining a natural look. You can adjust exposure and highlights, use graduated filters or radial filters, adjust shadows and blacks, or use Layer blending modes, depending on the photo.
