It's been a cold Winter | Wedding Photography in Albany, NY by Aperture Photography

It's been a cold winter in the Hudson Valley and Albany area.  I am glad I have the best equipment there is.  It is made to work in almost any conditions.  I photograph so many weddings in the Albany, NY and Hudson Valley I know to have the best cameras and lenses so I can give my all the customers the best. I have been photographing wedding in -10 below this winter and over 100 degrees with high humidity and I don't miss a think.  I do carry a lot of backup equipment, but I have mot had to use it much at all.

Anyway Spring is coming and here is a happy warm wedding photograph for you.

Wedding Photography Hudson Valley

One of the most beautiful places for a ceremony is the Stone Church in  Cragsmoor in the Hudson Valley.  This weekend was just perfect the sky's were clear and from the back of the church the view of the Hudson Valley was amazing.  You could see for 40 miles.  This gave me the opportunity to create photographs that I live for.  The reception was held a the Winding Hills Country Club Montgomery, NY. .

Wedding Details and ideas

The day was perfect, with warm sunshine low humidity. Low humidity is so welcome in an Albany area wedding. And most important some of the nicest caring people.

The details were perfect. The musicians were so talented and the flowers so beautiful. So must care and love were put into every detail to make this wedding so beautiful and relaxed. All the hard work pulling a wedding together means little without a wonderful couple and their loved ones.

Let me tell you it just does not get better than this. Sometimes everything just feels right. Here are just a few photos of over a thousand.

Being invited wedding it is such a huge honor. To be present experiencing two people who are deeply in love with each other make a bond that will last the rest of their lives. They are inviting you to witness their most special day. In this day in age with modern technology and people trying to take pictures , videos with their phones, I pads etc. and devices of all kind.  It seems hard to  really focus on just enjoy the moment and feel the emotion that is going happening right now.  The moment.  With on line galleries and social media let the photographer handle the photography. People should just focus on being really present and watching the most special bond be created between two people occur, not worrying about getting the perfect shot, that’s what the photographer is there for. The beauty of the wedding is being there, being in that moment and having tears of joy or a smile on your face knowing that their life is now an inseparable bond.  A wedding is a day for enjoying laughs and smiling and positive emotions not stressing about getting that perfect shot with your phones or cameras, leave that up to the photographer, just enjoy yourself and that special occasion.

Wedding Photographer Picture of wedding singer

Aperture photography has been photographing weddings near and in the Albany area for more than 20 years. Although much has changed in 20 years the beautiful architecture and landmarks remain timeless.  As a wedding photographer in Albany NY, I have such a selection of beautiful backdrops to choose from.  The bride and groom are assured of beautiful wedding memories.  There are many historical landmarks in Albany.  For example the New York State Capital, The Egg, the Empire State Plaza, the Palace Theatre and many parks and historic buildings that just aren’t found elsewhere.

With these backdrops of marble, stone, and beautiful parkland, your wedding pictures will be fantastic.  Due to the fact that the locations are very close, you can get the beautiful historic marble and stone buildings and in a short drive be at a scenic park with all its beautiful lush landscape.

Aperture photography especially loves the New York State Capital and the Empire State Plaza.  These areas are amongst the most beautiful in NY State.  A Few minutes from these historic buildings is Washington Park which will give you a different look to  your wedding photographs and add different visual interest to your beautiful wedding album.

Weddings are for the Grooms Too | Wedding Photographer in Albany

Portrait of Groom in Albany

I have been photographing weddings for over 20 years.  I am so lucky to have female assistants who know and remind me that the Groom is very important and needs great shot just like the bride.  Although I know how important it is, it is nice to have a assistant with strong views and a different set of eyes.

Over the last 10 years grooms have much more fashion sense.  I have studies the magazines and watched the Men's Warehouse commercials and see the change.  When I got married it was get a black tux and show up.  Those days are long gone.  A good wedding photographer must have a sense of the times.  Aperture Photography has just that.  With a lot of help from my assistants.

Don't worry brides you are always the focus.  But, just a little spotlight is the Grooms.

Aperture Photography photographs weddings all over the country including where this photograph was taken.  Albany, NY.

A Father and Daughter | Albany NY Wedding | 11 North Pearl

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.
