What about a photoshoot in the Jura Mountains in Switzerland?
Hello and welcome to my blog!
I’m Carlota from Carlota Stewart Photography, and I love that you are interested in reading my blog about a photoshoot in the snow in Switzerland
So my family and I decided to go out to walk the dogs and ended doing a lovely photoshoot in the snow in the forests around the Jura Mountains.
Well, as this location is a hidden gem, I will not be disclosing it, but I will tell you that around the Jura Mountains in the districts of Vaud and Neuchâtel there are many similar places to this one and they are all beautiful.
So, we ventured to some woods which are around 40 minutes from Nyon, we wrapped up appropriately for the photoshoot (oh the irony) (photo of me with the white top).
Photographing my own children is not easy. They suffer from a well-known condition called the Photographer's Child Syndrome. Yes, they are fed up with me trying to make memories all the time. Why? Because I’ve seen how quickly they are growing and soon will leave the nest. I want to make sure that I have a lot of photos of them, as I don’t have any of myself at this age. It is perfectly normal that teenagers don’t want to be photographed by their mum, but this needs to be done, and the best solution I could come up with to overcome this aversion is to actually have them playing with the snow. Do you also have a dog? Dogs are part of the family too and also deserve to be photographed!
I know some spectacular locations for photos in the snow around the Jura Mountains.
Photo sessions in the snow are not easy to plan and usually are done at the very last minute depending on the weather, we might just get lucky and get some fresh snow. So, if we know that it’ll be snowing tomorrow, just give me a ring now to plan a photoshoot at the last minute!
And no, I'm not one of those people who will tell you to come and book me now, only to find out that I don't have any availability for the next three years. I'm sure we can always find a date to suit your needs without requiring you to be on a waiting list for several years. I'm either available or not but I wont make you wait forever for a session or pressure into booking one right now.
