This After Wedding Photography Session with the most stunning view at the Lake Lucerne was truly special! It’s one of the best accessible places I know which is easy reachable by car with a lot of space to take photos like you see down below. We got so lucky at this evening because we almost canceled this Wedding Photography Session due to bad weather. As I was driving to the Bürgenstock at Villa Honegg it was heavy raining and a storm was in full bloom. But the lovely couple was keen to take their 5 yrs anniversary after wedding photos at this day and embraced the weather no matter how it will turn out. Love this mindset so much. (: As we arrived the storm was over and no people around and just the most soft summer evening light! I was freaking out of joy and creativity haha, it was just perfect! We had the best time together being creative and documenting their evening celebrating their marriage. It was also so bittersweet to photograph them again because it was one of the first weddings I could capture back in the days. Thanks for your trust S&B! They did bring a towel to sit on and some drinks to cheer on and enjoy the view at Lake Lucerne. I also loved to take some cinematic, blurry and editorial photos of them which is always sooo fun. As it was getting dark and the light was slowly fading we also took some photos with lanterns I brought to the photoshoot. Always so magical to do this. As we walked back to our cars and it turned all dark I had the spontaneous idea to take some photos of them in front of their car with their car lights on. Another thing i just love to do and it just turns out to unique and romantic everytime! (:

FAQ: After Wedding Photography at Lake Lucerne

1. How does the weather and season affect after wedding photos at Lake Lucerne?

Summer is a magical time for an after wedding shoot at Lake Lucerne. The warm, golden sunlight creates a romantic glow, while the vibrant greenery and crystal-clear lake provide stunning backdrops.

The summer weather is usually predictable, but it’s still important to plan for potential heat or sudden showers. I always recommend bringing a light jacket or shawl and sunscreen to stay comfortable. Morning or late-afternoon sessions are best to avoid the harsh midday sun and to capture the most flattering light.

2. What should we wear for an after wedding photoshoot at Lake Lucerne?

This session is the perfect opportunity to re-wear your wedding attire while embracing the summer vibes. For extra comfort, consider breathable fabrics and a few simple additions:

For the bride: A flowy wedding dress looks beautiful in the breeze. Add a lightweight shawl or sun hat for an elegant touch.
For the groom: A suit or blazer in lighter tones like beige or grey pairs perfectly with the summer scenery.
Shoes: Bring comfortable footwear for walking on rocky or grassy paths, along with dress shoes for the photos.

Charming towns nearby: Ideal for adding a rustic or elegant vibe to your shoot.

These spots tend to be quieter, allowing you to feel more at ease and truly enjoy the moment.
