Shelby told me about the location that she wanted to use for her engagement session, saying that it was private property with the most amazing view. As I pulled up the long driveway, I immediately fell in love with the location. Words can’t describe how beautiful it is. Good thing photos can 😉

Franklin Terrace Wedding – Andrea and Brett
I met up with Andrea and Brett at the beautiful Yaddo Gardens for their engagement session, and we had a wonderful time together. The connection between the two of them was evident. I knew we were going to have a great time on their wedding day. I went to high school with many of their guests, so it was pretty neat to see so many familiar faces.
When I arrived at the Franklin Terrace, Andrea was there getting ready with her ladies. She was so calm, and such a sweetheart; helping her bridesmaids with their hair, and offering me a coffee. You could tell how happy she was to be marrying Brett that day. Her dress was amazing, her shoes were killer, her flowers were beautiful, and her hair and make up came out amazing.

Indian Ladder Farms Engagement – Shannon and Ian
Shannon and Ian wanted their engagement session to take place in the fall, and we were trying to think of the best location to use. They asked if we could go to Indian Ladder Farms in Altamont, and I was more than happy to use such a beautiful location! When you live in upstate New York, going to an apple orchard in the fall is usually a tradition. If you are looking for a nice orchard to go to, check this place out!
These two were super awesome to work with, and the chemistry between them was so fun to capture! Let’s start off with one of my favorites from the session:

Saratoga Engagement Session- Crystal and Kevin
I met up with Crystal over the Summer, when she booked her wedding with me. We went over details, talked about her and Kevin, and the children they share. It was at this time that I learned that they have a daughter that is the same age as my daughter, has the same first name, same middle name, and is also the middle child. Talk about coincidence!
The three of us met up on a late Summer evening for their engagement session out at the Saratoga Battlefield. It was a perfect night, not too chilly, and not too warm either. It happened to be a full moon, and it was beautiful the way it sparkled in the sky.
We definitely had some fun… I don’t know how to do things any other way 🙂

Schenectady NY Engagement Session | Nicole and Tom
This lovely couple were in a wedding that I photographed last year at the Franklin Plaza, found here: Courtney and John’s Wedding so I was super excited when they asked me to photograph their wedding at the Glen Sanders Mansion!
We met up for their engagement session at a small park in Niskayuna, NY that the two of them go to every now and then for a stroll. They arrived looking quite dapper, so I jumped at the chance to get some dramatic shots. Just look at them! Can I add that I love that Tom’s shirt and tie match my branding colors 🙂

Yaddo Gardens Engagement | Andrea and Brett
This beautiful couple met with me at Yaddo Gardens in Saratoga NY for their engagement session. It was a warm Summer evening, and we were blessed with some gorgeous golden lighting. They both showed up looking great, and we jumped right into it with some shots by the water. I just love how the sunlight wrapped around them in these shots!

Saratoga Battlefield Engagement – Dianna and Keith
When I first met up with Dianna at Panera Bread in Albany, I just loved her energy. I don’t think she stopped smiling the entire time we chatted about her wedding day. Even though I hadn’t met him yet, it was clear that she was certainly head over heels for Keith. As we were wrapping up our meeting, Dianna let me know that not only was she very impressed with my work, but she was also impressed with me…kinda the best compliment you can give a photographer during a wedding consultation. I knew the two of us were going to get along fantastically!
We met up on a warm evening in June at the Saratoga Battlefield in Saratoga Springs, NY. The wind was a bit pesky, but we just worked with it; making sure Dianna’s hair was facing the right direction, and out of Keith’s eyes. I swear these two were like professional models in disguise or something, because they were amazing to photograph. As soon as I posed them, they would just fall into a natural laugh, or look at each other in the cutest way. Seriously adorable!

2013 Year Review | Albany NY Wedding Photographer
As 2013 comes to an end, I still can’t believe all of the amazing things that happened, the incredible people I had the honor of working with, and the touching moments I had the privilege of capturing. I have been there as so many of you marry your best friends, I have planned out exciting gender reveal sessions, I have photographed newborn babies and children to help their parents capture a moment in time that passes all too quickly, I have captured families in all of their silliness and beauty…..I still can’t believe that I get to do what I love!

Jenn and Bill’s Engagement Session at Thacher Park
I met up with Jenn and Bill at Thacher Park near Albany, NYÂ this fall. The leaves were at their peek, and bright in color. We wandered around the beautiful park (thacher park is beyond gorgeous!), getting some great shots along the way. It was a chilly day, and the two of them kept warm with their flannel blanket.

Engagement Session at Thacher Park
This beautiful couple contacted me last year to photograph their wedding this July. I knew after meeting with them that we would work very well together. That was confirmed for me when we met up to do their engagement session. We headed over to the beautiful Thacher Park. It was a warm summer evening, and the sun was getting ready to set. We started out in an open field, and then headed down the Indian Ladder Trail to get some awesome shots under the waterfall. These two did an awesome job, and were so photogenic! The love between the two of them was so easy photograph. (more…)
