Foothills Parkway Photos At Golden Hour
As a Gatlinburg photographer, I am known for my Foothills Parkway photos. The magic that happens on the Foothills in the Smoky Mountains is why so many couples decide to elope to Gatlinburg. And I am always honored to capture that magic combined with your love story! If you have never seen Foothills Parkways Photos at Golden Hour, then you are in luck! Because today I am sharing a stunning gallery from this fall along with all the reasons I love the Foothills for elopements!
Adventure & Romance
When you choose to have a Gatlinburg elopement, you will surely have an adventurous day! Whether you take trails to hidden waterfalls for epic wedding photos. Or you decide to explore downtown and the many luxury spas and resorts. There is an adventure waiting in the Smokies! And the Foothills Parkway perfectly embodies that adventure!
The Foothills offers jaw-dropping backdrops that are easy to access without compromising an adventurous view. This is perfect for any couple that is looking for a sense of wanderlust to come through their images, even if they aren’t looking for a rugged hike. Whether you're Gatlinburg elopement, the Foothills provide the perfect mix of dramatic landscapes and intimate moments. With rolling hills, vibrant seasonal colors, and picturesque sunsets, this location ensures your photos will be nothing short of breathtaking while still being accessible for couples seeking a seamless yet unforgettable experience.
The Smokies
Something that I adore about the Smoky Mountains is the fog. How it creeps up through the trees and rolls over the hills and mountains is beyond dreamy! Then add the romance of golden hour, or even after-sunset hues, and the backdrop of your wedding photos becomes dynamic.
I try to make sure we hit a few spots in the Foothills of the Smokies in our session together. Of course, the iconic view of the valley is just beyond the stone wall of the Foothills. This is a classic shot that displays the grandeur of the mountains and feels like it goes on forever! The depth in this spot alone is worth the travel to Gatlinburg! In addition, I try to get different angles of the road, place you in the trees, and there is a small hike to an outstanding overlook! No matter the spot, it is likely that we will get a bit of fog rolling through the background to give that Smoky Mountain feel!
Candid Moments
One of the best things about the Foothills Parkway at golden hour are the candid moments I get to capture of your elopement. The way your groom grabs for your hand as you walk up a trail, how the two of you laugh at inside jokes together, and quietly embrace as you watch the sunset. My style of photography allows for both posed portraits and candid photography. And with the warm glow of the sun right before it sets, I get to capture these little candid moments in an ethereal way.
If you are looking for adventure, romance, candid moments and an amazing elopement experience, then this is the place for your big day! Let’s connect and start planning your Gatlinburg elopement!
