Snowy Engagement Photos in the Flagstaff Forest

Winter Engagement in the Flagstaff Forest

The weekend we took these engagement photos, Flagstaff had received TWO FEET of snow. It was quite a lot at once for our little mountain town, but boy did it make for some playful and gorgeous engagement photos in the forest. Felipe and Victoria had come to Flagstaff for a Thanksgiving getaway and decided it was a perfect opportunity to capture some winter wonderland magic in the snow covered pine trees.

Bundled up in layers and wearing their snow boots, Victoria and her fiancé Felipe did not shy away from dancing around in the snow together. We walked around the neighborhood their airbnb was located in and found some perfect wintery spots to capture the magic they were looking for. We even took some gorgeous shots in the snow covered streets.

We found a gorgeous spot in the pine tree forest with views of the tree line. Here, I had them pose between the trees and even shook some of the snow covered branches, and threw some snow in the air for added magic. We were able to capture dreamy photos, intimate portraits, playful moments and all of the love between these two.

Snowy Chicago Winter Engagement Session in the City

Engagement photos at the Old Water Tower in Chicago during Winter snow

What better way to cozy up with your partner than to have a couples photo session in the snow! This Texan couple visited Chicago during a winter storm that blanketed the city in snow. The cold didn’t scare them off and they spent the day before their couples session exploring Chicago and ring shopping at Tiffany’s. Their whole session was later used as their engagement photos.

We woke up bright and early to capture these intimate photos in the depths of Chicago. Rhiannon and Nick knew they wanted a classy and bright session in the city but none of us were originally expecting to take these couples photos turned engagement photos, in the snow. Their groove did not get thrown off one bit and we captured many classy yet intimate moments in front of the Old Water Tower. Rhiannon was more than happy to shed her comfy coat for dramatic effect and it definitely paid off.

We cozied up in the lobby of the nearby hotel and snapped a few more intimate shots there before stepping out to brave the cold weather for some final photos. The winter décor in the Talbott made for some beautiful snow themed shots that fit in perfectly with the theme of the day.

Portraits in the city can capture the feeling of being alone in the world with your partner when they are done right, and the snow in the city certainly only increases the depth of that feeling. If you are looking for a unique way to capture you style and your love story, consider a session in the snow. Earth Below Photo is always up for the adventure!

Earth Below Photo’s Top Reasons to have an Engagement Session in the Snow

Reason Number One: Uniquely Yours

Reason number one to have an outdoor engagement session in the snow is to stand out! Not many couples are willing to brave the cold winter weather for their engagement photos and would rather wait for a more comfortable season to come around. Your engagement photos will be something a little different, and if that’s your style we encourage you to go for it! Earth Below Photo is happy to meet you wherever it is that you like to adventure.

Reason Number Two: Outfit Choices

Reason number two to have your engagement photos taken in the snow is for the outfit choices. Fashion forward couples will get to accessorize beyond their wild dreams when it comes to layering up for pictures in the cold winter snow. You can choose to dress up your look with big fluffy coats, classy hats, stylish scarves and more. The way you choose to dress for your session should always be comfortable and uniquely you.

Reason Number Three: It’s like Mother Nature decorated just for you

It’s like Mother Nature decorated just for you. No need to bring decorations or even that pretty, but environmentally harmful, confetti! Mother Nature herself brought out the best she has to offer in terms of scenery. If you are lucky enough to have a session during an active snow flurry, we can capture a glittery confetti spray of ice and snow in your pics. Or if you ask nicely, we can shake a branch or two ;)
