Red and Black Pirate Themed Wedding in Albany NY
Potsdam Based Photographer: Natalie’s Studio| Wedding Photography

What a fantastic wedding day for Amanda and Andrew. This wedding is near and dear to my heart. Since Amanda is my best friends’ younger sister, she is like a little sister to me. And being that she married her high school sweetheart, Andrew, I grew up with nearly everyone in the wedding party. And those who I didn’t grow up with, I have had the pleasure of getting to know through Amanda and Richelle over the last several years.

It is always a fun challenge photographing people you are close to. In some ways it is harder because you are even more nervous. But in other ways I feel like you can connect with them on a deeper level and bring out a depth of emotion in them that is harder to do with clients you do not have history with. (Another great reason to get to know your photographer.)

Amanda and Andrew did a great job planning a classy pirate themed wedding. The pirate elements were brought out in all the little details. They had beautiful elements like skull and cross bone ties for the guys and pirate ship broaches for the girls hair. The red roses and black calla lilies were a perfect choice for Amanda’s pirate inspired bouquet. They also had a custom pirate flag created for some of the photos.

The reception at Birch Hill Catering in Castleton on Hudson was a perfect location. The white fabric draped ceiling was reminiscent of the sails of a pirate ship. And with an authentic ship wheel to accent the head table and red up-lighting, you were transported on a pirate adventure. The tables were decorated with jewels and gold from a pirates treasure and beautiful black candelabras.

There is so much I could say about this wedding!! But I am sure you want to get to the amazing photos. Which there are so many wonderful ones it is even overwhelming to me! All in all, it was a fantastic day and everyone had a wonderful time.

I hope you all enjoy all of the wedding photography. If you need anything at all don’t hesitate to contact me. Remember 50 comments on the blog and they win a free framed 8x10, 100 comments and they win a free 11x14 framed print.
