Weddings Full Moon Resort and Catskills

Aperture Photography Full Moon Wedding Photographer

Aperture Photography spends a lot of time photographing weddings in the Catskills.  Hunter Mountain and Windham Mountains in particular.  Along with the Mohonk Mountain House in the New Paltz, New York.  I photograph weddings in some of the most beautiful places in the world. They all are great.  But there is also an absolute gem up Route 28 not far from Kingston and Woodstock, NY.  The Full Moon Resort.

 A wonderful place to be married or recharge your batteries is The Full Moon Resort.  It is a peaceful unspoiled getaway up Route 28 in Big Indian, NY.

 I just read an article in Ulster Magazine May/June 2012 and there is a lot happening at the Full Moon.  Along with weddings events they have some of the biggest names in music history mingling and teaching fans and many other artists. Wow it is just perfectly different place for weddings, events or the happenings that occur daily.

 The Full Moon has a different feel than any place I have ever been too.  Although some of the other great Catskill resorts are incredible.  I get the feeling the Full Moon Resort will be a very important place to be.

 I hope to be there soon, either photographing a wedding or event or just visiting a very unique and beautiful place.

 For those who don’t know about The Full Moon Resort check it out!

The Beauty of Wedding Photography on Film | Kingston, Saugerties, Woodstock, Albany, Saratoga and Pougkeepsie Wedding Photographer Aperture Photography

I recently added a Contax 645 medium format film camera to my family of Canon digitals and I am in love. I have shot with film for the first 10 + years and love the look. The film that Kodak and Fuji has now is so wonderful.  The skin tones are simply wonderful.  People look flawless.  Some films are designed to do just that. Other scenes have a dream like quality. I love with the process of shooting film. It makes you slow down and really think about each frame you shoot. And something about that feels so artful. I missed shooting film and the soft pastel colors and wonderful skin tones it brings. It bring a that joy and excitement back.   I’m also learning to be patient. Digital is all about instant gratification. I can view it immediately; download my cards as soon as I get home, upload files asap. Film is a bit of a waiting game and I’m trying to be a bit more zen about the process. Because in reality, a week and a half after I’d sent my film to the lab I don’t even remember what’s on it. Getting those images back will be like a little surprise.  The beauty is priceless.

There is a big demand for film Wedding Photography in the NYC, Kingston Woodstock, and Saugerties, NY area.  It seems that anyone who is in the arts loves the skin tones and subtle details.

I have a big advantage in that I know how to shoot film and live in an area with many people who are actors and artists.  They insist that a lot of their work is done on film.  Although it cost a bit more it is worth it.
