Why choose engagement photography in Valle de Uco?
An engagement session in the Valle de Uco can climb above the vines to the Manzano Histórico, a reserve of streams, poplars and open hillside at 1,700 m, with the cordillera close enough to fill the frame. Thirty minutes is a short walk along the water and up to the viewpoint, timed for morning light before families arrive at the campgrounds. Couples often pair it with a winery lunch on the way back down to the valley floor.
Worth knowing about Valle de Uco
Mendoza's Resolución 343 on protected areas requires every photographic, film or graphic document produced inside one to state that the provincial system is administered by the Dirección de Recursos Naturales Renovables under Ley 6045. Engagement photos from the Manzano Histórico that are published commercially carry that credit line.

FAQ — Engagement photography in Valle de Uco
Where can we do engagement photos in the Valle de Uco?
In a winery's vineyard, by arrangement with the estate, or above the valley at the Manzano Histórico reserve near Tunuyán, at 1,700 m with streams, poplars and the Andes behind. A 30-minute Valle de Uco engagement session covers one of the two, and a second place is quoted as a longer session.
Do we need a permit for engagement photos at the Manzano Histórico?
Commercial photography in the Manzano Histórico follows Mendoza's Resolución 343, applied for at least 30 business days ahead. For a short private Valle de Uco engagement session, we confirm the current position with the provincial protected-areas office before the date and follow the rangers' instructions on the day.
