Winter Collingwood Engagement Session

Winter Collingwood Engagement Session

Winter Collingwood Engagement Session

Winter is the busiest booking season for me so if you’re looking for top collingwood photographers to photograph your wedding days, now is the time. It was such an honour capturing Rhiannon and Tyler’s engagement. When Rhiannon reached out about an engagement session in collingwood her only criteria was she wanted it to be snowing!! Snow sessions are always a bit tricky with the weather being pretty unpredictable in Collingwood. It requires everyone to be super flexible and prompt when the right time comes along. Once we saw the flurries we jumped out and started shooting. The session is so special and honest to their relationship. Enjoy!

Guide to Photographing Your Engagement at Sand Dunes National Park

Congratulations on choosing Sand Dunes National Park as the backdrop for your engagement photos! With its stunning landscapes and unique features, it’s sure to be a memorable experience. To help you make the most of your photo shoot, here are some tips and things to remember:

What to Pack:

Appropriate Attire:

    • Comfortable clothing that allows for movement, as you’ll 100% be walking on sand.
    • Consider the weather – layers are essential as temperatures can vary throughout the day.
    • If you’re planning a sunrise or sunset shoot, bring warm clothing as temperatures can drop significantly.

Footwear:

  • Your shoes will fill with sand so barefoot is ok unless your session is peak summer where the sand can get very hot
  • Consider bringing sandals or flip-flops for easier movement during breaks.

    Sun Protection:

    • Sunscreen with a high SPF to protect against the intense sun.

    Water and Snacks:

    • Stay hydrated by bringing plenty of water, especially if you’re visiting during the hotter months.
    • Pack light snacks to keep your energy up during the photo shoot.

    Props:

      • Consider bringing props that reflect your personalities or interests to add a personal touch to your photos.
      • Blankets, polaroids, picnic baskets, or champagne for a romantic picnic setup.

    What to Expect:

    Changing Conditions:

      • Be prepared for changing weather conditions, including wind and potential sandstorms.
      • The sand can get extremely hot during the day, so plan your shoot during the cooler mornings or evenings.

    Crowds:

      • Sand Dunes National Park is a popular destination, especially during weekends and holidays. Be prepared to encounter other visitors, especially around popular landmarks.

    Terrain:

      • Walking on sand dunes can be challenging, so take your time and watch your step to avoid tripping or sinking into the sand.
      • Some areas may require hiking to reach, so wear appropriate footwear and bring plenty of water.

    Permits:

      • Check if any permits or fees are required for professional photography sessions at the park. It’s essential to adhere to park regulations and obtain any necessary permits in advance.

    Time Management:

      • Plan your shoot around the golden hours – sunrise and sunset – for the best lighting conditions and dramatic landscapes.
      • Arrive early to give yourself time to get to the most popular dunes High Dune and Star Dune.

    Tips for Memorable Photos:

    Natural Poses:

      • Get a photographer that knows how to prompt instead of posing. Natural, candid moments often make for the most beautiful photos.
      • Trust your photographer’s guidance but don’t be afraid to suggest poses or locations that feel meaningful to you as a couple.

    Embrace the Landscape:

      • Incorporate the vastness of the sand dunes and the stunning natural features into your photos for a breathtaking backdrop. I always take B-roll of the area and lots of wide shots so you can feel the whole scene.
      • Make sure your photographer is comfortable with different angles and perspectives to capture the unique beauty of the park.

    Express Your Love:

      • Let your love and connection shine through in your photos. Focus on each other and the emotions you share, rather than worrying about posing perfectly.

    Have Fun:

      • Enjoy the experience! Your engagement shoot is a celebration of your love and commitment, so relax, laugh, and cherish the moment together.

    By following these tips and guidelines, you’ll be well-prepared to capture stunning engagement photos with me at Sand Dunes National Park that you’ll cherish for a lifetime. Congratulations again, and I cannot wait to chat with you!

    The Dorchester Hotel Engagement Session

    The Dorchester Hotel Engagement Session

    Get engaged with Marie scholz photography at the cutest hotel in Collingwood, The Dorchester Hotel!

    Madi and Byron came to me through a referral and left it to me to plan their engagement session. I couldn’t resist recommending the Dorchester Hotel in Collingwood, Ontario so that’s what we did. Colingwood is the best spot for engagement sessions because there’s urban vibes, beach vibes and mountain vibes all within a 20 min drive. The Dorchester Hotel is a newly renovated apartment building into a modern and moody boutique luxury hotel spot. It’s a hotel to consider for your wedding, if no tthe whole thing then definitely should be considered for the accommodations alone. Be sure to reach out to me, Marie Scholz to book your engagement session at the Dorchester or ask me for other suggestions.
