Summer Wedding at the Mansion Saratoga | Marissa and Nathaniel

This year I photographed a very special Summer Wedding at the Mansion Saratoga. This couple was originally scheduled to get married the previous year, but–well, COVID. Since I have been not fabulous about blogging individual weddings lately, I decided to share this one today.

When the Pandemic caused them to postpone their original date, Marissa and Nathaniel went ahead and did a very small backyard event with just their parents and siblings. The also went ahead and planned their “big” wedding for the following year. You can see the post from their Summer Backyard Wedding in Saratoga here.

Please take some time to enjoy the video below:

It really was a lovely event. The weather was perfect, and all the original Wedding Vendors could participate–Yay! This couple had the wedding of their dreams surrounded by family and friends in the most gorgeous outdoor setting. A few of my very favorite moments are belows:

Marissa's Dad waiting for First Look with Marissa in sitting area at Mansion Saratoga by mirror — One of my favorite “Dad ” moments to date.

There were so many special moments at this wedding, but one of my favorite was Marissa’s First Look with her Dad, Brian.

Summer Wedding Saratoga — Marissa is also very close to her mom.

Saratoga NY Mansion Wedding Photo — This was just a cool image to create of the Bride and Groom on different levels of the Mansion

Marissa and Nate dancing in wedding attire in garden of Mansion Saratoga. — How perfect is the back of this dress?

Gorgeous Bridal Bouquet in front of rustic barn in Saratoga NY with Bride and Groom Kissing in background. — A detail of the gorgeous bouquet.

Saratoga Springs Wedding Photos — It is always special capturing the Groom as the Bride is walking toward him down the ceremony aisle.

Summer Saratoga Mansion Tent Wedding Photos — Being introduced into the Wedding Reception. Their expressions are priceless.

Hudson Valley Wedding Photographers — I love a dress that moves well. And this location is just great.

Adirondack Summer Wedding Photos — I totally enjoyed the way Nathaniel interacts with everyone.

Upstate NY Rustic Barn Wedding Photos — I live for moments like this as a Wedding Photographer.

Summer Saratoga Mansion Wedding Photo — When the veil and the light are right.

These were just a few of my personal favorite wedding photos from this event. Be sure to watch the video for more–it really was a great day!

Susan, you’ve got some really unique photos for this wedding at the Mansion Saratoga! The venue is gorgeous and I love both the indoor and outdoor portraits you’ve created for this couple. But that image of them on two different levels of the mansion? Wow!!!
