Wedding Photography, Saratoga-NY at Mansion Inn-Erin-Jim

February 21, 2015 • Leave a Comment

Erin & Jim were married at the beautiful Mansion Inn in Saratoga, NY. The wedding event not only joined a husband and wife but two families--two of Erin's Children and two of Jim's. The Mansion Inn is just a gorgeous setting for wedding photography and an event to remember. It was great working with the Mansion Inn and DJ Chris Wright while Erin, Jim and their family and friends celebrated late into the night!

Right before Jim got a first look at his beautiful bride, Erin stopped for a moment with her children in the limo.

Jim opens the limo door to see his bride for the first time that day all primped and ready for the walk down the aisle.

A quick pose on the stairs inside the Mansion Inn. The wedding party!

And a moment with Dad right before the ceremony.

Just one of many family portraits taken that day!

The piano room served as a beautiful backdrop for a wedding portrait of the soon-to-be newlyweds.

Erin & Jim were married outside in a large tent, next to the Mansion, and their reception was held in the barn!

We're married! What a happy day!

The entire cast of the wedding!

This was definitely a family affair! The children certainly added to the life of the party and were on the dance floor all night long!

Mom and daughter.

Another family group...and a photo-bomber!

Thank you, Erin & Jim, for your trust in us to produce your wedding day photography. It was great working with you both and your families.

Wedding Photography, Albany, NY-Amanda & Andy at Michael's Banquet House

January 13, 2015 • 1685 Comments

Amanda & Andrew were married at the Immaculate Conception Church in Hoosick Falls, NY in a touching ceremony by Bishop Emeritus Howard Hubbard and Father Thomas Zelker in November. Then they traveled by Albany Trolley to celebrate at Michael's Banquet House, in Latham.

When we first met them to talk about their wedding photography, they decided on Engagement photos, and they had a location. So we met them during the fall of 2013 at the Southern Vermont College in Bennington, Vt. What a great choice, with beautiful grounds and that fall day.

Engagement Photography-Amanda-Andy

Fast forward a year, and it's Wedding Day. Amanda's Mom and sister-in-law-to-be help the bride get ready to meet Andy.

Andrew and his groomsmen pause for a minute before jumping aboard the Trolley to head to Hoosick Falls.

Wedding days are always emotional, and this Dad's first look was no exception. Emotional for both Ben and Amanda.

Andrew and his best man and brother, Jeff check scores on the way to the ceremony...or maybe preparing to change Andy's Relationship Status on Facebook?

Andy and his Mom, LeeAnn on the trolley

The emotion aside, for a moment as Amanda adjusts Dad's flower.

Andy's family and friends on the Trolley.

Amanda, a teacher in Hoosick Falls, invited her students to witness their wedding ceremony and got together for a photo.

Here's that emotion coming back again. :) Family is everything to them, and they chose to have a family group hug on the way up the aisle. Amanda, Mom, Dad, and brother Brent.

Huggggs! Not many dry eyes here.

And then, we continue up the aisle to meet Andrew.

Father Tom, who obviously knows them well, delivered a very nice homily, very personal, and sometimes very funny.

And they're husband and wife! Congratulations!

A little birds-eye view of the ceremony.

A quick kiss on the way out!

Here's another group of Amanda's students, former students and children who's she's cared for over the years.

And they arrive at Michael's Banquet House with Rick, Brandy and the talented team taking care of everyone so well. Plus, FLY 92 Radio Morning Rush Co-Host Brian Cody as the Master of Ceremonies, kept everyone laughing, entertained and kept the evening on track!

And Brian introduced the bride and groom for the first time!

Amanda picked out a couple of touching songs for their Father-Daughter dance, which they sang while they danced.

Andrew got to take a turn or two with his Mom.

Amanda's family having a little fun posing for a quick 'family photo'

Nobody can pass up the Macarena!

....and the YMCA!

Thank you, Amanda and Andy, for choosing Susan Knott Photography for your Engagement Portraits, and of course, your Wedding Photos. We had a blast working with you and your families and friends.

We put together a short wedding photography slideshow from some of our weddings over the past few years. If you're planning to get married in the near future, email me or give me a call (518-369-6057). We'd be happy to discuss your wedding portraits and engagement photos!

While I am the primary photographer, my husband Jon is a second shooter at all weddings, so you get two vantage points all day long. We'd love to meet with you to hear about your day, get to know you and for you to get to know us!

We can also share a few suggested wedding packages for ideas, and then customize a package to your needs.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Senior Portrait Photography-Emma Willard School, Troy, NY

December 20, 2014 • Leave a Comment

The Emma Willard yearbook allows the ladies to team up for senior portraits in their yearbook, so that they can share a page or two. This group of senior wanted to have do their senior portrait session together. So they picked a Sunday morning when they could all be together for a bit and we went to work. Erin, Cara, Elaine and Kate had a great time, and so did we! It was a very cold December morning, but they brought warmth to the session! We started in Frear Park and then moved on to Emma Willard.

Emma Willard Senior Portraits In their yearbook they post photos of the four of them, then pairing up, and their senior portrait solo. Here, Kate and Elaine pair up!

Emma Willard Senior Portraits Then back outside with Erin and Cara! What a beautiful campus!

Emma Willard Senior Portraits And it was time for the solo senior portrait...with Erin.
