  • Before Wedding Photo Shoot in Wengen

    A late afternoon pre wedding photo shoot with a lovely couple from Singapore. I must admit to being concerned about the weather. Samuel had to delay the photo shoot a few hours.

  • Weather Apps for Interlaken

    I have found it very difficult to predict the weather in the Interlaken and Jungfrau regions using weather apps. The lakes and mountains create local weather conditions. The forecast on the 30th September was rain. There are dark clouds over Interlaken but no rain. In Brienz, the weather is okay. (See picture.) What you cannot…
