Convict Lake Resort Wedding Photography

Convict Lake Resort in the Sierra Nevada Mountains is the perfect setting for a winter wedding. With its breathtaking views and tranquil atmosphere, it’s the perfect place for a bride and groom to exchange their vows and begin their new life together. From intimate ceremonies to grand receptions, Convict Lake Resort has all of the amenities to make your mountain wedding an unforgettable experience. I absolutely loved working with this couple and love photographing weddings at Convict Lake. I have been lucky to shoot several weddings at Convict Lake and every time I feel so lucky to be a part of the big day. I have gotten to know some of the best locations for photos and love how this wedding venue looks different at every season of the year. Here are some of my favorite images from the day!

There’s something so powerful about a woman in this season—soft and strong all at once. 🌊🤍
There’s something so tender about watching two people become parents for the very first time.
The way they look at their baby with quiet awe. The careful hands. The nervous laughter.
The kind of love that feels brand new but also like it’s been there forever.
These early days go by in a blur of feedings and swaddles, but this—this connection—is worth remembering.
In the calm of the studio, we slow everything down.
We make space for the stillness, the wonder, the quiet magic of your new beginning.

Because no matter how tall they get or how far they roam, they’ll always be her babies… even if they now roll their eyes when it's photo time. 😂.
