here is the usual way:

page = Session.query(Page).filter(Page.url == url,  
Page.body==body).first()
if not page:
        page = Page(url = url, body=body)
        session.save(page)

If you know the primary key identifiers of the object, you may also  
use merge():

page = Page(<primary key identifiers>)
persisted_page = Session.merge(page)

the latter will do the same thing automatically as the former  (SQLA  
does not use IntegrityErrors to query the database).
