The photo shoot was initially scheduled for the next day, but with rain forecasted, we managed to move it up by a day. Flexibility is always beneficial. Zermatt is a favored destination, thanks to its stunning combination of mountains and lakes. The downside is the occasional presence of people in the background, requiring significant time…
A photo shoot in the Swiss Alps surrounding Zermatt on a chilly September day. Snow blankets the northern side of the Alps, though not here. The cold weather was not ideal for Nao’s wedding dress. Our photo shoot began at Leisee Lake, at an elevation of 2,232 meters. We concluded at Stellisee Lake, (elevation 2,547…

There are plenty of locations to choose from with the spectacular Matterhorn mountain in the background. I wanted an area where I could have a photo shoot afterwards. A hike down a mountain trail seemed the best idea.…
