Amazing photographer. Sandy not only took amazing pictures but she took the time to get to know my son and his new bride. Researched the area and totally personalized their wedding photos. A joy to work with. Highly recommend.

This is going to be a little wordy, so for those that don't want to read too much: if you have found Lake Placid Photography, your search is over. Pick up the phone and book Sandy. Now. She will check every box for you: professional, prompt (more on this later), TALENTED, beyond nice, absolutely worth every penny. Stop reading and call her. Come back when you've booked her and read the rest.

OK, now for the folks with some time on their hands, have I got a story for you. My wedding was Sunday, January 12, 2020. I am a happily married man, and have the professionally taken pictures to prove it. That, however, was not a foregone conclusion 90 minutes prior to the ceremony.

When we decided to get hitched in Lake Placid in January, we knew that weather could intervene with our best laid plans. Flights could be cancelled, guests could decide not to brave the elements. But, we wanted the winter wonderland of the Adirondacks as a backdrop for our day, and we were damn well going to have it.

So much for that. The day before the ceremony it was almost 60 degrees and pouring rain. Oh well, we're still in this amazing spot with our family and friends, who consequently had no travel issues. Everything was ready to go...until it wasn't.

In the morning hours of this past Sunday, the north country experienced a massive and unexpected ice storm. Still, we were all there, so no big deal, until our photographer called us at 2PM. He would not be able to travel to us. Our wedding was scheduled for 3:30. Ummm....#@!*&!

My beautiful fiancé's face turned a ghostly white. A single tear flowed down her cheek. This was not supposed to happen. She had worked so hard to make this weekend perfect. Folks, it broke my damn heart.

She had to get ready, as this gig was happening with or without a photographer. I ordered a beer from the bar, sat for a minute, and decided that I was going to try to fix this. I asked a friend to google local photogs. The first result he gave me was Lake Placid Photography. Enter Sandy Huber, owner of that business, and now our hearts as well.

First, it should not go without pointing out that she answered the phone at 2:00 on a miserable January Sunday afternoon. I told Sandy about our situation, expecting, really, that she would not be able to help us on such insanely short notice. I was wrong. I was so totally wrong. Ask my wife if I admit to that very often.

By 2:45 Sandy and I had agreed to exceptionally reasonable terms for her time and expertise and she was at our venue taking pictures of the empty space. She beat me there. Folks, she beat me to the venue, and I was staying in the building. She was 45 minutes early.

Now, under these circumstances, one could understand if we were just happy to have anybody with a good camera there to document the big day. What I am here to tell you--if you take nothing else away from this post--is that what we got was an excellent photographer, not to mention human being.

I have more than a little experience with professional photographers, having worked in television and music production in NYC for several years. Those folks have nothing on her. Honestly. Sandy knows what she is doing and it shows.

But wait, there's more! Sandy had fun with us. She was there, in the middle of this event, following the action and capturing everything. Never in anyone's face. Just with us, enjoying the madness that was our wedding.

But what about the results, you ask? Don't take it from me, I am clearly biased. Take it from everyone else with whom I have shared Sandy's shots. I'll quote all of them at once: "holy shit, these are GREAT". The access that she provides to her work by way of an app is really terrific, too.

If you've made it this far, congratulations. I feel like we know each other. To finish, here's a pro tip: don't be like me. Don't hire someone for your Adirondack wedding who's name is not Sandy Huber of Lake Placid Photography. Also, don't wait until 90 minutes before your wedding to book Sandy Huber, as I seriously doubt she will be available. We couldn't have been luckier to have her.

We LOVED Lake placid photography! Sandy and her husband were wonderful to work with. So friendly, easy going and very professional. She understood exactly what we wanted and couldn't have asked for anything more. We decided to have a small ceremony with our close family and she captured how personal and intimate this day was to us and every family member.
