Mountainside winter engagement session at Glen Alps

There’s something magical about the Alaska mountains, especially in winter. The towering peaks, the untouched snow, and the crisp mountain air create the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable engagement session. When Abby and Brayden reached out about capturing their love story in Alaska, I knew Glen Alps would be the ideal location.

A Destination Engagement in Alaska

Abby and Brayden traveled from out of town, eager to experience the beauty of Alaska firsthand. They wanted their engagement session to reflect their adventurous spirit and love for the outdoors, and what better place than the breathtaking landscapes of Glen Alps? Nestled just outside Anchorage, this spot offers sweeping mountain views, endless snowy fields, and a quiet serenity that feels straight out of a winter fairytale.

Snow, Laughter, and Love

When we arrived at the trailhead, the scenery did not disappoint—snow-covered peaks stretched as far as the eye could see, and the soft winter light added a dreamy glow to every shot. Abby and Brayden embraced the chill, bundling up in cozy layers and sharing warm laughter throughout the session.

We started with playful moments—Brayden twirling Abby in the snow, the two of them laughing as they tried to keep their balance. As the session went on, we leaned into the quieter, more intimate moments—soft embraces, gentle forehead kisses, and the way they naturally fit together.
