Winter Engagement in Lauterbrunnen

It is always a privilege for me to photograph a life changing event in a couple’s relationship. A winter engagement in the Lauterbrunnen region with a lovely couple from Santa Monica, L.A.

The plan was to have a surprise engagement on the way from visiting the Jungfraujoch. We kept in contact during the day using Whatsapp. Garrett sent me a message when they were leaving the Jungfraujoch.

Visitors to the Jungfraujoch from Interlaken usually take the train to Grindelwald Terminal. Then the Eiger Express cableway to Eigergletcher where they connect with the train to the Jungfraujoch.

They took the train to the Kleine Scheidegg when they left the Jungfraujoch. Changed trains at the Kleine Scheidegg for Lauterbrunnen. The location was on the way!

It’s winter time and the sun is low in the sky. Sunny days create a challenge for a photographer. The sun is shining over the mountains into the camera lens. Also on the faces of the couple creating shadows under their eyes or around their noses.

Winter Engagement in Lauterbrunnen
The bright sunlight was casting shadows. It was shining on Garret’s face but there is little I could do about it. It was a surprise engagement.

The couple also received some pictures with the mountain peaks. I don’t want to show them here because other photographers will start to use the location. It will no longer be a quiet location for an engagement.

The sun was slowly setting over the mountains and it gave me the opportunity to take some sunset pictures. No photo shoot is the same because of the weather conditions, etc.
