Hudson Valley Wedding Photographer

Aperture photography has shot well over a thousand weddings in the Hudson Valley.  The purpose of what we do is to make our brides and groom love there photography and all the memories they will bring.  A wedding is such a special and unique event. The bride and groom should have a wow factor along with documentary coverage in there photographs.  The wedding day is not any other day and the photographs should be the very best.  All the bases must be covered.  The ceremony, candids, preparation, family portraits and the reception and cultural traditions.  My favorite shots are the couple together and bridal photos.  I am a fashion and studio photographer so it comes so natural to me.

Almost every bride has looked at Bride Magazine and thought about all the details and beauty that they want in there wedding.  It is a large emotional investment.  As the wedding photographer you need to do all you can to make the dreams and wishes come true.  Sure, you need to balance the need to get the shots with making sure the couple enjoy the wedding.  With all the years of experience and care it is no problem.

The Hudson Valley is so diverse with everything from rural barns to posh mansions and that is the fun of it.

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. .
