What a perfect, perfect day! Kathryn & Bobby's gorgeous Longfellows wedding took place this past July in Saratoga Springs, and I couldn't be more happy with the way everything turned out for these beautiful humans!
Kathryn and Bobby are the sweetest couple. Their love for each other fills every room they occupy... and every photo they grace with their beautiful faces! Their friends and family, especially Kathryn's mom and sister, are the NICEST EVER. From the second I showed up on site everyone was SO kind to me and my team, and I seriously had such a wonderful time documenting this perfect day.
I love the way these two look at each other, the way they make each other laugh, and the way you can tell they really, really listen to each other. I spend a lot of time staring at beautiful people, and these two had a very extra special something about them that made my team positively giddy to be around.
We started our day with getting ready photos - beautiful details & handwritten love notes that made us all cry a little. Then, right to the church in Mechanicville for the most beautiful ceremony with sunlight streaming through the stained glass & love in the air. Fun fact - we made two timelines for this day. Not a thing we often do, but we like to be organized when the weather looks scary. One timeline was a rain contingency backup plan, and one was the sunshine plan. The rain plan was to do formal photos on the church altar, the sunshine plan was a few quick couples shots in the church and ALL the outdoor images at Longfellows. So... after the ceremony, we were like "HEY. WE BEAT THE RAIN! Let's go straight to Longfellows!" ... and the second we hit the road the sky opened up and it just started POURING. But we had already committed to the location change, so I just had to pray a LOT on the way there that it would stop soon (or become a drizzle that my clear umbrellas could easily take care of).
No sooner had we arrived & accepted our rainy fate than the skies cleared back up and allowed for beautiful, bright, sunny green photos of my beautiful couple and all of their most treasured loved ones. When the formals were done, Kathryn and Bobby spent the rest of their night dancing and singing at one of the most active receptions I've had the pleasure of shooting - this packed dance floor and fun crowd even had Dyan and I grooving while we documented the action!
Kathryn & Bobby, it was such a pleasure to get to know the two of you, and an absolute joy to document this special day for you. I hope you love every single one of your photos (I sure do!). Thank you for everything, I wish you a lifetime of happiness!

Let's hear their review:
Rating: 5 out of 5 stars Stunning photos! We hired Hannah as our engagement and wedding photographer and we are so incredibly happy we did! Hannah was with us through every step and was always available for any questions we had leading up to our big day. On our actual wedding day, it was scheduled to rain and Hannah created two day-of timelines- one for rain and one for no-rain which made the whole day much less stressful. Not only did she work so seamlessly with her second shooter, but even with our DJ and videographer. She was incredibly organized and efficient with our large group family shots and took the most stunning couples portraits and wedding photos that we will cherish forever. She even invited us over to her photo studio for an in-person photo reveal party which was so fun and special. Prior to our engagement photos, we had never gotten professional photos done but Hannah made the photo-taking fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend Hannah for engagement and wedding photos- she will not disappoint and will go above and beyond to make your photos beautiful!
