Landscapes
From mountain tops to waterfalls, a layer of snow that comes with the winter season can change a landscape view dramatically, offering a completely different perspective to the same scene you’ve shot over and over.

Animals
Like landscape photos, a winter scene can bring another perspective to how animals behave. The season may highlight certain animals that love to be out in the snow as well as provide a serene background for every shot.

Cityscapes
Despite the amount of chaos a winter storm can bring to a city, snow also provides an opportunity to add a lot of unique cityscape pictures to your portfolio. The cold days that bring fog and gloom around buildings can provide a full day of shooting interesting images.

Portraits
A portrait photographer doesn’t always have to worry about the harsh light of the summertime midday sun when doing outdoor photos. The wintertime also provides magical snow falling scenes that need to be taken advantage of.
