Interlaken After Wedding Photography

Interlaken After Wedding Photography

This After Wedding Photoshoot in Interlaken with those two lovebirds was so calm and fun. Although it was a cloudy and really cold day in autumn we explored all the little corners of the old town of Interlaken and the beautiful and crazy blue river which flows through Interlaken together. Their vision was to take stunning after wedding photos in a typical and famous mountain town in Switzerland. And what would be better than Interlaken for this?! (: We had so much fun together taking digital and film photos of this “after-wedding-photography-date”. And they enjoyed to wear the wedding dress and wedding suit again for a day. Because of the cold weather we took breaks to warm up and also made a stop at a sweet little tea shop on our way down to the river. I let them move or cuddle a lot to stay warm and make the time enjoyable. Thank you so much for your trust it was such a lovely time. Loved to show you around and take those photos and get to know you. (:

To my future couples who would like to do a photoshoot in Interlaken: I recommend to choose a Location which is not in the center of Interlaken because it’s THE hotspot and so crazy crowded. The old town or down at the river or lake are usually less crowded and so beautiful. It really helps for the experience to avoid the crowds and feeling more freely to get the photos taken. Would love to assist you there. Inquire here.

FAQ: After Wedding Photoshoot in Interlaken

1. How does the weather and season affect pre- or after wedding photos in Interlaken?

The weather and season play a huge role in setting the mood for your photos. During our recent session, the crisp autumn air and soft, diffused light created a dreamy and calm atmosphere. The vibrant blue river stood out beautifully against the warm, muted tones of autumn.

If you’re planning your own shoot, remember that mountain weather can be unpredictable. Always bring warm layers and comfortable shoes. If rain or wind surprises us, we’ll adjust to sheltered locations or use it as an opportunity for dramatic, creative shots. Trust me—raindrops can add a magical touch to your photos!

2. What should we wear for an after wedding photoshoot in Interlaken?

For this session, the couple re-wore their wedding attire: a timeless dress and a nice suit. To stay warm, they layered cozy jackets between shots and we took breaks at a charming tea shop to warm up.

For your shoot, I recommend:

  • Thermal layers: Keep warm without compromising your look.
  • Comfortable footwear: Especially for walking on cobblestones or riverside paths.
  • Accessories: Neutral-colored shawls, scarves, or even blankets for a cozy and stylish touch.

I also provide a “What to Wear Guide” with tailored advice to help you feel confident and look amazing.

3. Why should we do an after wedding photoshoot in Interlaken?

An after wedding photoshoot is perfect for couples who want a relaxed, stress-free experience while capturing beautiful, creative photos. It’s especially ideal if your wedding day was packed, and you didn’t have the time to explore scenic locations like Interlaken.

For this couple, Interlaken was the dream destination. They loved the charm of the old town and the serene, turquoise river. It gave them a chance to fully enjoy the experience, free of wedding-day timelines.

Other benefits of an after wedding session include:

  • Exploring breathtaking locations not included in your wedding day.
  • Choosing the best time of day for lighting and weather.
  • Getting to wear your wedding attire again—it’s always a win!

4. What makes Interlaken a great location for an after wedding shoot?

Interlaken offers an iconic Swiss mountain-town vibe with a perfect mix of charm and natural beauty. For this shoot, we wandered through the picturesque old town and made our way down to the stunning riverbanks.

For future couples, I suggest avoiding the busy tourist hubs in the center. Instead, opt for the quieter areas like the old town, the river, or nearby lakes. These locations not only provide beautiful backdrops but also allow you to feel more relaxed and natural during the shoot.

5. How do we plan for an after wedding shoot in Interlaken?

Timing and flexibility are key! Plan enough time for traveling between locations and take the lighting into account. I usually recommend shooting early in the morning or late in the afternoon to capture the most flattering natural light.

We’ll also build in breaks to stay warm, enjoy the surroundings, and make the experience enjoyable and stress-free. Ready to plan your own unforgettable after wedding photos in Interlaken? Reach out to me through the contact form—I’d love to help you make it happen!
