Barn Weddings are all the rage | Aperture Photography Hudson Valley Wedding Photographer

Barn Weddings are all the rage fo good reason.  They are beautiful and relaxed.  The natural texture and link to the past just make everyone feel great !

As a photographer I love the texture and light.  The natural light and warmth that only a barn can give you.  Over the last few year the barns have evolved to bring in much more comfort without taking away from the feel. 

Take a look at the galleries on our site and you will see what I mean.  In the meantime hear just a few examples of the fun you can have on the grounds with the animals that live at the barn.

It's been a cold Winter | Wedding Photography in Albany, NY by Aperture Photography

It's been a cold winter in the Hudson Valley and Albany area.  I am glad I have the best equipment there is.  It is made to work in almost any conditions.  I photograph so many weddings in the Albany, NY and Hudson Valley I know to have the best cameras and lenses so I can give my all the customers the best. I have been photographing wedding in -10 below this winter and over 100 degrees with high humidity and I don't miss a think.  I do carry a lot of backup equipment, but I have mot had to use it much at all.

Anyway Spring is coming and here is a happy warm wedding photograph for you.

New York City Summer Engagement Session | Aperture Photography, New York Photographer

I miss the summer so here is a photo to warm you up some. Aperture Photography spends many a fast pace day capturing the  New York's most scenic areas. Here at Aperture Photography we believe that the more energy you put into something, the better it will turn out. We strive for excellence and in keeping with our practice, we captured some incredible moments at the Brooklyn Bridge, Grand Central Station, Filth Avenue and Five point graffiti art. We at Aperture Photography were able to capture the complete style and creativity of the  graffiti art and we promise that any project we undertake will come out with the same perfection.  The couple were so perfect. 

 

They are  an example of the young New York.  There energy and style were amazing !

The importance of Engagement Photography | Aperture Photography Hudson Valley Photographer

Having your engagement photo shoot is such an important part of the wedding process. If course the great photographs are wonderful.  They serve as save the date photographs.  The wedding photographs are the main theme, but the other 364 days the bride and groom were in normal clothing so it is a bit more real.

But, the main reason it is important is you get a great deal of comfort with the wedding photographer in a more relaxed state and get used to each other.  It builds a bond and trust that take so much pressure of the wedding day.

I feel strongly that the one enduring item besides your love will be the wedding photography  And the couple spends quite a bit of time on the wedding day with the photographer.  Weddings engagement works and really has so many benefits before, during and after your wedding.  Book your engagement today your wedding will be much more relaxed and the photographs will have a bit more relaxed look.

 

Upstate NY and Northeast Barn Weddings | Aperture Photography

Barn Weddings are all the rage.  Aperture Photography photographed at least 15 this year.  They can be amazing.  Beautiful farms with rustic old barns look amazing.  This Year I photographed Barn weddings in the state’s New York, Vermont, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and Connecticut and New Jersey.  What I have notices most this year is that the Barns have so much more comfort and luxury.  Just a few years ago the barns we beautiful and quite original, but in a way roughing it.  That’s fine for some couples, but the modern changing rooms, rest rooms and in many barns A/C have made it so comfortable and enjoyable.  It was a hot summer and fall and the little comforts are welcome.

The barn venues are everywhere now. From remote locations in Vermont and the Saratoga area to the hidden away private yet lovely barns in downstate New York and the Albany areas.

I love the texture and beautiful farm lands and of course the mountains we are so lucky to have here.  I feel I can make a beautiful collection of artful memories that rival any place in the world.  From vast landscapes to quite ponds the limit is only the imagination. Here is just a tiny fraction of the 20 to 30 thousand photographs I shot this year.

Here are some photographs from the amazing :

What makes it so fun is the different looks and creative differences from the Mountain weddings in Killington Mountain Resort, Hunter New York and the Adirondacks of the north of New York State to the beaches on Atlantic Ocean and Lake George.  It just a creative shot in the arm.
