Roundhouse Wedding : Jess & Josh : Beacon, NY

Jess & Josh held their Spring wedding at The Roundhouse in Beacon, NY.

I am lucky to shoot at The Roundhouse quite a bit and it was great to kick off this season of visits with this spirited couple. This was one of those weddings that feel like is photographing itself. So many raw and real expressions and a well crafted vibe. This venue is great just on its own without little dressing up, but Jess & Josh’s disco ball theme really upped the ante. I had a spree of 3 or 4 weddings in a row where they all had disco balls and it added so much! I hope to see more in the future.

These days I’ve found myself really gravitating towards the hotel building on the property at the top of the hill. I love the brick details and contemporary landscaping which. The warmth plus the cool greens really pop and I feel like many modern couples look and feel at home there.

Jess & Josh lucked out with both the ceremony and cocktail hour being held outside. I love how easy it is to get big group shots with family and friends on the expansive patio or down by the waterfall. It’s the ideal setting for cocktails.

Moving inside for the reception, the lights came on and we were in amazement at the zillions of bright disco spots swirling about the room. As we light various elements with flash the disco balls pick up that light and send it out like a sparkler. It’s pretty amazing to see flying across the viewfinder.
