Enjoying the moment | Aperture Photography Albany NY Wedding Photographer

Bride and Groom Relaxed while taking Wedding Photos

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.

Weddings at the Glen Sanders Mansion | Schenectady, NY

Aperture Photography http://aperturephoto.com had the honor of photographing another wedding at The Glen Sanders Mansion in Schenectady, NY just a few miles from Albany, NY.  The Glen Sanders is a historic gem.  But unlike many historic venues it is perfect for a wedding in 2014.  The  staff is incredible.  The lake in the back of the property is a photographic delight. Aperture Photography has photographed 7 weddings at the Glen Sanders in the last 2 years.  What I find amazing is it looks great in every season.  If you would like Aperture Photography to photograph you Glen Sanders Manson Aperture Photography will be willing to discount our price.

Wedding Story Telling | Aperture Photography Albany, Upstate, Poughkeepsie Wedding Photographer

The Start of a wonderful Adventure

Stating  with the obvious Aperture Photography photographs weddings we are photographers after all.  But our wedding photography is all about telling the story of the wedding and loved ones.  I am a lover of fine movies.  I feel that you can tell a story of the couple and loved ones that will grow in value every day.  I look at my wedding album and  pictures and see all the faces of the people I love.  I see my beautiful wife who gets more beautiful everyday and understand what this busy hectic life is all about. Some of the people at the wedding have passed. I am so happy to see them and I think for hours about the love, the times together and our history.  Please visit us at  http://www.aperturephoto.com

I see the beauty of my bride and cannot believe how lucky I am to have " married up ".  I think of the three children  we have and the joy they give me.  Living history, beauty and joy.  Not just a collection of wedding story, but a story of a collection of family, friends and love.

This brings me to the importance of having a wedding photographer like Aperture Photography document your life.

We are a business, but more importantly we have a passion to give our brides and grooms and families with a beginning, a story a history.  I really mean it when I say " It is more important than the money to me "

Kingston NY Wedding Photographer | At the Train

Aperture Photography Weddings at Kingston, NY

If you look around  the wonderful Hudson Valley there are endless backdrops for great wedding photography. All you have to do is keep you creative eyes open.  This Train photograph idea happened on the way to the New York State Thruway.  I drove from Saugerties to Kingston and as I got off the interstate I  saw the wonderful restored train car.  It's brilliant red color in the autumn sun made this location a must.  The bride and groom were so nice that they indulged my idea and we had fun.  They are such a creative couple.  Creativity to me is just seeing and being open to opportunities that are everywhere.   Couples think the have to go to famous out of the way places for there photographs.  That is fine, but great photographs are everywhere !  Contact Aperture Photography and let us create our unique wedding collection.  Visit http://aperturephoto.com
