Scott & Taylor’s Sunrise Engagement Session at Moraine Lake

Scott & Taylor’s

Sunrise engagement Session at Moraine Lake

Red Bloom Photography

Over ten years in business and this Moraine Lake session was my very very first! I had been

there quite a few times for personal trips and one time for my very own session but never

to photograph one of my own couples there.

I will be honest and say it is because I usually try to avoid these crazy busy locations with

my couples. And Moraine Lake is the epitome of a busy location. Line up down the road before

the sun even rises, the road to the lake closes before the sun rises and people everywhere…but

those view and that water. In my opinion one of the most beautiful places in the world!

My friend Jalisse and I jumped in the car at 3:00am to head to Moraine Lake for a day of shooting.

She had two of her own couples lined up for back to back sessions and I had two couples as well

scheduled for sessions.  We arrived before the sun was up and we were greeted with a fresh dusting

of snow. I had never seen Moraine Lake with snow as it is closed October – May. And I can see why

cause the snow made the rock pile very slippery. I had to walk with so much caution. Not really cause I was

scared of a little slip but more that I was scared of slipping with my gear and damaging it and it ruining

the session! The snow made it extra magical.  We started shooting the moment the light came up. We

hiked up the rock pile and found our own little spot. You kinda have to do this at Moraine Lake as you

are sharing this view with hundreds and hundreds of other tourists. But when you do find that spot

 you feel like you are the only people there and the photos look this way too. In fact it is quite common

for couples who getting married or elope at Moraine Lake to be in utter shock over how busy it is as the

photos online look so quiet and peaceful!

Scott & Taylor’s romantic sunrise session was the perfect mix of sweet quiet romantic moments and a bit

of playful candid moments! We adventured up and down and round the rocks and then changed on the

rock pile….actually my friend Jalisse had to tell someone to give them their privacy as he was staring at

them changing ha ha. I just love this session so much! I hope it doesn’t take me another ten years to head

back to Moraine Lake for another adventure engagement session.

Some words from Scott & Taylor

How & when did you two meet? What was your first date?
We met on Tinder… We were both working downtown at the time and both swiped right!
Our fist date was a long one. It was a Wednesday after work, and we met at My Favourite
Ice Cream Shoppe (i LOVE Ice Cream). We then went on a motorcycle ride around the city,
stopping at the Grey Eagle car meet, and ended up at Bottlescrew Bills. We stayed there till last call,
about 1:30am and we both had to work the next day! We just couldn’t stop talking, and it was probably
the longest date I’ve ever had haha.
What is your favorite trip or experience you two have done together?
What made it so special?
We have to say our second annual wine trip to Penticton. Firstly, because that’s
when we got engaged! But it was also just so relaxing, and filled with wine! Penticton is
one of our favourite places, and we really hope that one day we’ll move there. We love it so much
that we make an annual trip every year now. Its so relaxing, we don’t have to be anywhere, and we spend the whole
time together drinking wine, eating pizza and hitting up the local breweires.
Current Binge Watch on your TV?
Well, with being quarantined, it changes daily haha! But anything Sci-Fi or Fantasy.
Now for fun a little game like the shoe game at weddings.
Who is the better cook?
His answer: Hahaha Me
(he actually laughed when I asked this)
Her answer: Definitely Scott
Who is the better dancer?
His answer: Taylor, by far
Her answer: Hands down, me. Scott dances like an awkward white guy 😛
Who made the first move?
His answer: Uh, Technically I messaged Taylor first.
Her answer: Scott messaged first. But I had to prod him a little for that first kiss haha
Who said I love you first?
His answer: I did, and I caught her off guard
Her answer: Scott. It happened pretty fast, and I didn’t want to scare him off haha
Who is more likely to get a speeding ticket?
His answer: Taylor has gotten more speeding tickets since we started dating. So her.
Her answer: Scott speeds way more, but he never gets caught! probably me haha.
Who is more of goof?
His answer: Depends on the day.
Her answer: We can both be goofy, but probably Scott
Who is first to get up in the morning?
His answer: Weekdays, Taylor. Weekends, Me.
Her answer:Me!

Can’t get enough of Moraine Lake?
