Just 7 Photos Of Sam Cruz That Prove The 'Golden Hour' ~*Glow*~ Is Real

If you haven't been taking your pics during golden hour, you're missing out on a lot! "Golden hour" happens between 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., before sunset. (If you want to be more accurate, you can check the exact time in your location using this website.) This window period is considered to be the best time to take photographs. The sunlight during this time creates a warm glow on the photos. 

Another big plus? When you take a selfie or outfit pic during the golden hour, your skin looks glowing. (Fun fact: Thirst trap pics and beach photos are best taken in the afternoon.)

Sam Cruz's photos are perfect examples: Her cute selfies are almost effortless, and her outfit pics look more dimensional. If you need more ideas on how to take advantage of the golden hour, check out her pics below:
