Austria


Lünersee in Austria

From snowcapped mountains in the Alps to turquoise colored lakes and fairytale villages, Austria has it all. Tucked away in the middle of Europe, this mountainous country has so much to offer. I visit Austria frequently to shoot weddings in the winter, but I had never been there in the summer. The vibe and the experience is completely different. As the snow melts, the mountains become a hiker’s paradise and the lakes can actually be swam in. As I traveled from the far west of Austria all the way to the northeast, I noticed how different the landscapes were. From rocky mountain tops, the landscape changes to green meadows and in the south, near the border of Slovenia, there are countless vineyards on rolling hills that look more like Tuscany than Austria. For city lovers, Austria hosts some great places too, with Salzburg being as picturesque of a city as it gets and Innsbruck literally having the mountains in their backyard. Austria is truly a travel photographers dream!

Below my favorite selection of travel photos during my trip to Austria, enjoy!
