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.

Aperture Photography Upstate, NY 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.

Black and White is just perfect for certain situations.  It is timeless and classic.  This church is located in Albany, NY and was at dusk during a driving rainstorm. It was so dark that it was hard to see.  Black and White was the perfect solution to bring out the best in this beautiful church.

Aperture Photography Photo Booth Service | Servicing Westchester, Saugerties, Kingston, Albany, Poughkeepsie and the Catskills

Photo Booths are just fun.  The guests enjoy themselves so much. This was from a wedding at The Full Moon Resort.  When there are low energy times in the wedding the guests run to the photobooth and have a great time.  I have never seen it fail.  Photo Booths are a home run at any wedding.  At Aperture Photography we keep the price down.  We want to make the wedding a blast.  You also get all those fun shots to keep forever.  Call Aperture Photography, Upstate and Hudson Valley Wedding Photographer and we will work with you to get great coverage at an affordable price.

Swarmed by Paparazzi on their wedding day! | Wedding Photographers Aperture Photography Kingston, Saugerties, Poughkeepsie

Albany, Pougkeepsie Wedding Photographer Aperture Photographers

Great Wedding Photographers  must have a balanced approach. The bride and groom cannot be  swarmed by paparazzi  wedding photographers on their wedding day! A balance must be struck by getting all the photographs to document the wedding perfectly and making sure the wedding is about them. So  you must be a into  photojournalism a bit of   traditional photography for family group shots and editorial photographer for great fashion and wow shots.  Balance is the key. Aperture Photography photographs weddings throughout the Hudson Valley, including Saratoga Springs, Albany, Saugerties, Kingston, Poughkeepsie, Catskills, Westchester and NYC.

Saugerties, Kingston Wedding Photographer on Film | Aperture Photography

The 4:5 format of Medium format film is a format many pros have never shot in.

Aperture Photography  was  booked for a wedding today that will be all film !  The bride and groom are in the entertainment world and love the look and texture of Medium Format film.  I have been shooting film for 20 years.  In the last 7 or so years almost all digital.  They both are wonderful, but so different.  I will be using  Kodak Portra Film.  I love the skin tones and pastel  look.  The 4:5 format is very different from the digitals 3:2.  My camera of choice will be a Contax 645.  The thin depth of field and blurred  background  in the right light and printed on the right paper looks a bit like a painting.  Because of the expense of film and film processing is quite high it forces you to be very precise.  Since I shot professionally on film for so long it will not be difficult for me, but it sure is exciting.  We are planning 3 locations.  The streets of Saugerties, The Saugerties lighthouse and the Kaaterskill Falls in Catskill. Aperture Photography  photographs weddings in the Hudson Valley, Albany, Poughkeepsie and New York City.  Stop by our web site and take a look.  http://aperturephoto.com
