They Had a Blast: Isabelle & Didi (Engagement Session)

When I took the train to the little city of Zofingen to shoot the engagement session of Isabelle & Didi on this wonderful spring day I didn’t expect it to get THAT funny. Sure, we always have a good time shooting engagement sessions, but this couple is so funny that it is just not possible to take a picture of them not laughing out loud. Well, why should a photographer want to take a sad picture anyway? This makes my job so easy. They even tried to pose serious for one picture. Sorry guys, I can’t publish it, it didn’t turn out very well :-) It just doesn’t look natural.

Didi is such a photo geek himself that he is always asking technical questions. And it’s his damn good right to do so as my client! I really appreciate it if someone is interested in what I’m doing. And I was happy that I could answer all his sophisticated questions to his satisfaction :-)

By the way, these first shots are not an ad for a well known swiss chocolate drink. It just belongs to their weekly “tradition” to sit on the stairs of the church – where they will get married later this year – and enjoy this drink and a roll.

Thanks for the funny time, Isabelle & Didi. Can’t wait for your wedding!

Janice & Andreas (Engagement Session)

The weather forecast was to be rainy in this part of Switzerland, but luckily they were wrong this time. So after the meeting to discuss the final details of Janice’s and Andreas’ wedding we still had enough time to hang around the awesome hotel in Bad Ragaz and shoot their engagement session. And hey, believe it or not, the town of Bad Ragaz was originally founded by Andreas’ great-great-grandfather! Isn’t it great to get married in such a historic place? Can’t wait for your wedding, Janice and Andreas!

Janine & Roberto (Engagement Session)

I had to hurry to post these images I shot two days ago because the wedding of Janine & Roberto is already tomorrow! :-) OK, I have to go to bed now to be ready for the wedding of this funny couple. It’s going to be great, I’m sure!

Dominique and Frédéric recently moved from Zurich to my hometown Berne so it was great to shoot their engagement session here and show them some nice spots in the old city of Berne that is part of the UNESCO World Heritage. Enjoy!

The engagement session with Janine and Patrick took place in this awesome english garden in Arlesheim near Basel. The evening light was great and it was fun to hang out a bit and enjoy the great summer evening. I had to hurry up with editing because their wedding is really soon. Thanks, Janine and Patrick, to let me photograph this special day!
