Matt and Jordan wanted a location that combined natural beauty and quiet romance, and Lake Minnewaska was the perfect fit. We started their session along the cliffs overlooking the lake, where the reflections of the trees and the vibrant fall colors created a serene and romantic setting. The couple’s genuine connection shone through in every frame, from warm embraces to moments of laughter.
