So what type of camera would be ideal to use to capture this light?

Gracie,
The beauty of this type of light is that most any camera is perfect to capture it. " Sweet Light" from a low angle improves even photos taken with disposable cameras. Of course the better the optics on the camera the more clarity in your image.
I admit I am a long time Nikon user and think pound for pound and dollar for dollar Nikon produces great images. One of the best small range finder/point and shoot cameras I have tested lately are the Lumix cameras by Panasonic.

Thank you so much for the response, Jerome. I currently use a Canon G9...which I love! I hope to get into more photography so this was helpful information for a novice photographer such as me! :)
