Chris Jackson // West Virginia Wedding Photographers

Wintry engagement session at Snowshoe Mountain Resort. Snowshoe wedding and engagement photographer.

Lyndsy and Dan traveled from New Jersey to meet up with some college friends for a weekend of skiing and relaxing at Snowshoe Mountain Resort in Snowshoe, W.V. They contacted me a few months out to see if I could shoot their engagement. And being a snowshoe wedding photographer I said yes! I live less than two hours from the resort and always jump at a chance to get up their with couples. We met up and ventured around the mountain shooting at a few locations I thought would look good with them. They killed it. We eventually made our way down to Shavers Lake for a few scenes down there and of course a snowball fight ensued!

Snowshoe is one of the highest villages in the country and the ski resort has a couple of long runs of over a mile long. It is. Something to consider is that at 4,848 feet in elevation the mountain has a steady, strong wind in the winter time – hair up ladies! I told them I could bring my skis in order to get out on the slopes and get some action, fun shots like that – but they passed.

I know the mountain pretty well and am always open to exploring some of the off-beat places. Want to strap some snowshoes on? Let’s do it. Want to grab a couple beers or a fun session at the waffle cabin? Let’s do it. There is a pretty nice covered bridge just down the mountain that I’ve been dying to use for a backdrop. Maybe even Cass? I am available for weekend shoots too and working with a few days to get the images you want captured. I’m always booking winter engagement sessions at Snowshoe so make sure to ask about my exclusive winter engagement deals at Snowshoe.
