Engagement photos in two of Tahoe’s most iconic spots
There’s something about a Lake Tahoe engagement session that just feels different. Maybe it’s the mix of mountains and water, or the way every corner of the lake has its own personality. For Amy and Nicco, Tahoe wasn’t just a pretty location—it was the place they’ll be coming back to for their wedding next year! So it only made sense to capture pre-wedding photos here, celebrating this exciting new chapter.
Emerald Bay
ICONIC VIEWS, TIMELESS FEEL
We started at Emerald Bay—one of Tahoe’s most sought after locations. It has that “wow” factor landscape with gorgeous overlooks of both the mountains and lake. It’s a go-to if you want something classically Tahoe, that completely lives up to the hype.
Sugar Pine Point
FOREST PATHS & GREENERY
From there, we headed to Sugar Pine Point State Park—more laid-back but just as stunning. Towering pines, wooden piers, and a quiet shoreline create effortless variety in one location. It’s the perfect balance to Emerald Bay, giving you a full range of classic Tahoe scenery in a single session.
A & N’s Timeless Lake Tahoe Engagement Photos
What stood out most about Amy and Nicco’s shoot was their energy—playful, present, and fully in the moment. Their more classic, timeless looks fit the setting perfectly, but the ultimate highlight came at the end when they jumped into the lake! Those are the kinds of photos that stay with you because they hold both the memory and the emotion.
