The Great Gatsby Inspiration for Wedding Photography | Aperture Photography Saugerties Wedding Photographer

Aperture Photography Wedding Photographer

1920 was a great time for fashion.  My Grandmother was a flapper.  I saw all the photographs of the style of the 1920.  I just watched the trailer for the movie Great Gatsby and I know there will be many 1920's style weddings.  It should be fun and bring back a lot of memories of my grandmother. Aperture Photography is a Albany NY, Hudson Valley Wedding Photographer.

The light in the Catskills has attracted artists since the 1830's.  The Light is simply amazing.  This shot was taken at Hunter Mountain and the Reception was at The Copper Tree Inn.  Windham Mountain which is a few miles to the north has very similar light.  You simply cannot beat it.  The bride is from France and she just radiates grace and beauty.  Aperture Photography photographs wedding throughout the Catskills, Upstate, NY and the Northeast part of the USA and beyond.

Classic Bridal Portrait

Aperture Photography has invested in some of the lasted equipment that will enable us to provide you with photographs that were imposable just last year.  The Canon, Nikon, Sony camera and lens war has taken technology to a level thought impossible.  If the photographer is not talented and knows what he or she is doing the equipment will not help at all, but a seasoned pro with 10-20 years of shooting weddings can use this equipment to creative highs.  I guess what I am saying it goes back to talent and experience.  The bride and groom will really benefit.  I have spend so much time in classes with masters and practicing my craft I cannot wait to create beautiful weddings for my bride and groom and families.  Aperture Photography is a Albany, Hudson Valley Saugerties Kingston  and Westchester based photographer.  Visit us at http//aperturephoto.com

Why I Carry Three Cameras | Aperture Photography Albany NY Wedding Photographer

Aperture Photography Hudson Valley Wedding Photographer-34

Wedding Photographer Aperture Photography Hunter Mountain

For many parts of each wedding I shoot I have 3 cameras with 3 very different lenses.  Any photographer who really know his art know it is the lenses that are the artists paint brushes.  It is hard to do put I need the right lens to get the right shot.  Most people use general purpose lenses.  The results will be ok, but never spectacular.  My style is artistic, and leans toward the fine art side.  I have been doing this so long I just know what lens I need to get the look and feel I need.  Changing lenses is not fast enough and brakes my train of thought.  I like to have all fast lenses on the camera so I have the flexibility to through the background out of focus.  I need one long lenses that can reach out and capture candid moments.  I also need an exotic lens that shots at f 1.2 to give a ethereal look when I feel it is right.  Sure I have great assistants, put I still need to be lightning quick.  Aperture Photography prides its self in wedding photography that is art not just photography.
