This adventure hiking family photography session in Wengen at Lauterbrunnen was such a lovely morning! Together we hiked up to this breath taking place and enjoyed 3 hrs with talking and taking beautiful photos. I totally fell in love with this family and we had so much good and deep conversations about life and faith. Which makes such a morning even more precious to me. (: Their little girl was the sweetest too with her red hair like her mummy! They wanted to capture some family memories as they stayed here because of a cycling race where Danny attended, which I think is so coool btw! So we hiked up to this spot to avoid the crowds which are down at Lauterbrunnen Village and have a stunning view over the valley. Although their little girl needed a lot of snack breaks in between to stay happy it was so much fun to explore the site together and take family photos. I personally love to capture families in every stage of life, especially with the first child. It’s such a special and precious time to remember. Thanks for having me it was wonderful!
FAQ’s Lauterbrunnen Family Photography Session
Which time of day is best for a family photoshoot in Lauterbrunnen?
Answer: Lauterbrunnen’s beauty is most pronounced in the early morning hours. This time offers the best lighting conditions and a calm atmosphere before the tourist crowds arrive. Keep in mind that due to the tall cliffs on both sides of the valley, the sun appears a bit later in the day.
Which season highlights Lauterbrunnen’s unique beauty the most?
Answer: Each season has its own charm, but summer showcases the valley with lush green meadows, cascading waterfalls, and majestic mountains. Winter, with its snowy landscape, also offers incredible beauty, though some waterfalls may be less imposing due to reduced water flow and potential closures.
Are there specific photo spots in Lauterbrunnen that are highly recommended?
Answer: In addition to the famous waterfalls, there is a scenic viewpoint in the village offering a captivating view of the valley and the distinctive church of Lauterbrunnen. This “postcard view” is best enjoyed during off-peak hours to avoid crowds. I also love to go to Wengen or to Mürren with the train to have a stunner look down at the Valley. Plus there are less people. (: If you would like to do that I recommend to book an 3 hr adventure photo session so we can do a little hike.

Answer: Lauterbrunnen enforces strict regulations about staying on marked paths. Despite these rules, you can still capture beautiful photos. I can guide you to the most scenic locations while respecting these guidelines.

Answer: The most notable waterfalls include Staubbach Falls, Trümmelbach Falls, and Mürrenbach Falls. Incorporating these into your family photoshoot can add a special highlight to your experience.
