The Look of Old Films in a Digital Age | Rhinebeck Wedding Photography

Digital photography has changed the way wedding photography is done.  It is argued at nausea among professionals if it has been a good or bad development.  I am not going into rehash that fight.  Aperture Photography photographs wedding all over the Hudson Valley with both. The high cost of film and processing has priced all put the highest budgets for wedding photography out of range.

I have been working on bringing back the look of old film for  Aperture Photography wedding photography.  The look of film is big in towns like Rhinebeck, Woodstock, Kingston  and many of the artistic towns that do the Hudson River Valley.

Aperture Photography has been photographing weddings in the Upstate, NY area for over 20 years.  Here is a taste of old film types in the modern world of digital.

Wedding Photograph of Father and Daughter Dance

Sometimes when I am photographing a wedding I see something so profound and toughing. I know what it like to have a daughter who I love and cherish.  I have to wonder what I would think about on my daughters wedding day.

Aperture Photography has been photographing weddings for always 20 years.  What I love about weddings are moments that have emotion and can relate to all of us.  The look of both the father and daughter tell me just how special the bond is between them.

I just wonder what dad was thinking about.  I know from experience that a daughter is always a little girl to dad.
