I feel like an idiot...I asked about duplicating golden hour colors in studio.
Turns out that candlelight comes pretty close.

I made my cherubs/gnomes move into the attic...I wish.

Very nice! I don't remember anyone suggesting candlelight. It's not just the color of the light that works but also the hard shadows that your candlelight created that is similar to sunlight. I'm going to keep that in mind.

Thanks Mike...now it's time to experiment with candle size and some type of reflector.

& we look forward to the next in the series!
Now I can see a use here for my fog machine, adding a little puff around the base, maybe even to give a teeny bit of background separation.
My DIY chiller box for it, works a treat at keeping the fog low and not across the 'face' of my subjects, ( in your case upstairs in the house)

Nicely done.

That's excellent. Setting up a studio to while away the winter hours is starting to look attractive.

now it's time to experiment with candle size

And number of candles

Don't forget the fire extinguisher!
