An Onteora Mountain House Wedding in the Catskills
Beth Ann and Bobby were married at The Onteora Mountain House in August, surrounded by close friends and family. Their celebration felt warm, relaxed, and deeply connected to the place itself—exactly the kind of wedding that Onteora does best.
We have been photographing weddings at Onteora Mountain House since 2010, and every time we arrive, it truly feels like coming home. The history, the setting, and the people are all part of what makes this venue so special. The staff consistently makes everyone feel welcome, cared for, and comfortable. And making sure the creative team is well fed and hydrated is very much appreciated by us.
One of the reasons we love photographing Onteora weddings is the incredible versatility of the location. In a single place, we can photograph in countless ways, documentary, classic, editorial, or quietly intimate, depending entirely on each couple’s style and energy. The grounds, the light, and the architecture offer infinite possibilities without ever feeling overdone.
Couples who choose The Onteora Mountain House tend to share something in common. They understand the value of history and authenticity. They trust that the beauty of the venue stands on its own and doesn’t need to be overly styled or complicated. Onteora is already richly layered with texture, atmosphere, and story, making it the perfect setting for couples who appreciate timelessness over trends.
Beth Ann and Bobby’s wedding was a perfect reflection of this—effortless, meaningful, and rooted in place. It’s exactly why we continue to feel so connected to photographing weddings at Onteora, and why it remains one of our most beloved venues in the Catskills.
