This winter Breckenridge Engagement session took place on a bright sunny day nestled in the beautiful Colorado mountains. Although, a lot of popular spots in Colorado are closed for the winter season. There are still many gorgeous options to choose from that are easily accessible! This location is one of my favorite hidden gems. Believe it or not, that’s actually a lake they are walking on! A lot of couples will request to take photos in the mountains and near a lake. But if the location is above 10,000 ft chances are the lake will be iced over until early June! So the best time to take engagement pictures near a lake will be mid summer and early fall in Colorado.

I had a blast playing in the snow with these two lovebirds! Here are some quick tips if you are wanting to do a magical engagement session during winter:

• Bring layers! It’s time to snuggle up and get cozy.
• Moisturize your hands before the session. For all those ring close ups!
• Bring tissues! Cold air will tend to make your nose run a little
• I’ll bring some hand warmers that you can put in your pockets and shoes
• Have fun! Play in the snow!
