Book first light or late afternoon
Soft, angled light reduces harsh shadows on Lake Brienz and keeps crowds thin—ask for a sunrise or golden-hour slot if possible.
Wear grippy shoes
Paths around Giessbach and the Iseltwald jetty can be uneven and damp; sturdy footwear prevents slips during quick location moves.
Bring spare memory & batteries
Photographer-provided lighting is strong, but extra camera batteries and SD cards ensure you capture multiple outfit looks without delay.
Respect private property
Some best angles require permission—follow hotel rules and staff directions to avoid access issues and conserve time.
Comfortable walking shoes with grip
Good traction is useful for the short uphill walk to Giessbach and for uneven jetties and paths.
Change of clothes / layers
Multiple outfit options and layers let you adapt to light, wind, and quick temperature shifts by the lake.
Small daypack or garment bag
Keeps outfits, spare batteries, and personal items dry and organized between shoots.
Phone or tablet for quick previews
