When it comes to wedding photography, capturing those timeless moments of love and commitment is an art form in itself. And what better backdrop for such a special occasion than the breathtaking beauty of Lake Tahoe? In this blog post, we’ll take you on a journey through the lens of a Tahoe wedding photographer who knows the magic of sunrise photography all too well.
Early Rise for a Perfect Shot
They say the early bird gets the worm, and in the world of wedding photography, the early risers get the most enchanting shots. Our day began at the crack of dawn – 5 am to be precise. We knew that to seize the magic of Tahoe’s morning light, we had to set our alarms early.
As any seasoned Tahoe wedding photographer will tell you, the region offers a unique canvas with its pristine waters, towering trees, and stunning vistas. But there’s something truly special about the light around sunrise. The soft, golden hues that wash over the landscape make for an ethereal setting that’s second to none.
The Magic of Sunrise Photography
Tahoe’s sunrise is nothing short of epic, and it’s a treasure for photographers seeking the perfect shot. The tranquil stillness of the lake mirrors the sky’s painted canvas, creating a serene and romantic atmosphere. The gentle, warm light at this hour brings out the natural beauty of the couple and their surroundings, allowing us to capture moments of pure emotion and connection.
Love in Every Frame
Speaking of the couple, their love was palpable. They say that love is the greatest subject for any photographer, and this Tahoe wedding was no exception. The couple’s chemistry was electric, and as they stood by the shimmering waters of Lake Tahoe, it was evident that they were deeply in love.
The intimacy of a sunrise session allowed us to capture their love story in its purest form. From stolen glances to tender embraces, every frame was a testament to the love they shared and the commitment they were making on this special day.
Shooting Next to a Waterfall
One of the many natural wonders of Lake Tahoe is its waterfalls, and this couple was adventurous enough to let us shoot right next to one. The cascade provided a picturesque backdrop, adding an extra layer of beauty and drama to the photos. The sound of rushing water, combined with the radiant morning light, created an almost magical ambiance.
As photographers, we relished the opportunity to work with such a stunning and dynamic backdrop. It’s not every day that you get to capture a love story unfolding against the backdrop of nature’s raw power.
In conclusion, being a Tahoe wedding photographer is a privilege, especially when you get to experience the magic of sunrise photography. The early wake-up call is more than worth it when you witness the extraordinary light that bathes Lake Tahoe in the morning. It’s a canvas that transforms every wedding session into a work of art.
This couple’s love story was made even more enchanting by the natural beauty that surrounded them, from the tranquil waters of Lake Tahoe to the roaring waterfall at their side. If there’s one thing we’ve learned from this experience, it’s that the best wedding photography captures not just the love between two people but also the beauty of the world around them.

Emily was super easy to work with and very accommodating. This was our first time in the area and Emily was extremely helpful with assisting us in choosing the perfect location for our shoot. We enjoyed getting to know her as well as telling our personal story. I think she caught the essence of who we are as a couple and definitely memorialized this special trip for us. – Jamie A.
Working with Emily was awesome! It felt so natural and I was at ease taking photos. She knew what she was doing and captured spectacular candid pictures throughout the night as well! She took fantastic pictures despite terrible weather and lighting conditions. 10/10 would recommend hiring her for your wedding! Thank you Emily!! – Kayla F.
Emily did a fantastic job! I somewhat planned my engagement on the Fly with about a week (or less) for her to prepare and she did a phenomenal job working with me and making me feel at ease In a part of the country I’ve never traveled to. She was able to stay in contact with me (secretly) up until about 1 min before I proposed which was a MASSIVE help. Super easy to work with, made it fun, was also very professional and I would recommend her NO DOUBT. Thanks again! You made an insanely stressful “operation” (haha) go incredibly smooth! Her photos were fabulous and turned out great! I honestly didn’t know what to expect! Well done!! – Spencer H.
Emily is an outstanding photographer! My husband and I hired her for our outdoor maternity shoot with our first born. Booking Emily was painless, and she was extremely easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. She suggested multiple beautiful locations to shoot. We met at a gorgeous nearby beach she suggested. To top it off Emily sent us our photos ahead of scheduled time. Overall, Emily is exceptionally professional, pleasant and creative. She is one of the best I’ve ever worked with. Book her for your next photography needs, and you won’t be disappointed!! – Samantha K.
We hired Emily for our engagement photo shoot this past weekend and I honestly cannot recommend her enough! Not only is she super polite, kind, and professional, but she is also extremely talented. She has such an eye for detail and is fantastic at helping pose her clients. We did our photo shoot on my cousin’s property and Emily was so good at picking spots and playing with the light and surroundings. My fiancé and I were both completely out of our element, because we had never done a professional shoot before, but Emily made us feel comfortable, confident, and natural from the start and we completely love every picture we received! On top of all that the turnaround time for pictures was quick and she was very communicative from start to finish! 10/10, highly recommend! – Emily A.
