Iris & Mike’s Swiss Pre-Wedding Adventure

Meet Iris and Mike—two lovebirds who decided that a regular pre-wedding photoshoot was just too basic. Instead, they opted for an epic Swiss adventure, featuring lakeside romance, historic charm, and some seriously photogenic swans (who, let’s be honest, tried to steal the show).

Where We Went & Why It Was Awesome

Stop 1: Lake Geneva – A Romantic Start

The session kicked off by the lake, where Iris and Mike perfected their “effortlessly in love” look while I snapped away. The gentle waves, golden autumn leaves, and the occasional curious swan made for a dreamy start.

Stop 2: Vintage Carousel – Because Love is a Ride

Next up, a nostalgic stop at a vintage merry-go-round. Between laughter, twirls, and some questionable attempts at balancing on the carousel horses, we captured playful, cinematic moments that felt straight out of an old romance film.

Stop 3: St. Pierre Cathedral – Views & Vows

Every great love story needs a dramatic setting, and this was it. Inside St. Pierre Cathedral in Geneva, soft light filtered through the stained glass, setting the perfect stage for some timeless, intimate portraits. Then, we climbed up the tower (yes, actual cardio was involved), but the sweeping view over the city was 100% worth it.

Stop 4: Back to the Lake – Now with Extra Swans

Returning to the lake, we found ourselves surrounded by dozens of swans, all clearly ready for their close-up. Some swam gracefully, others photobombed. Either way, Iris and Mike’s photos turned out effortlessly romantic—just them, the water, and their unexpected feathery fan club.

Stop 5: Lavaux Vineyards – Golden Hour Perfection

And finally, we reached Lavaux Vineyards, where nature decided to show off. The sun dipped low, casting golden light over the vines and the lake beyond. The atmosphere? Pure magic. This is the kind of backdrop that makes you want to frame every single shot. And we did.
