We were contacted by Suzy and Terence a few months ago because they wanted to recreate some wedding portraits that were missed by another photographer on their actual wedding day. Suzy wanted some images captured of the two of them getting ready as well as some portraits. We headed to the spa at Ravella where Suzy got her hair and makeup done and then headed to one of their rooms so they could get in their wedding attire. I have to say Ravella made for a beautiful area to get ready. After they were all beautified we headed to some different locations around Lake Las Vegas for their portraits. We had really beautiful evening lighting and ended the night with a colorful Vegas sunset.

Tess and Nathan were married last month at the Misora at the Platinum hotel in Las Vegas NV. If you have never been there or heard of it check it out, it is a really unique alternative option to the traditional wedding location. It was so beautiful overlooking the Las Vegas Strip but had a really cool, hip vibe being up on the rooftop. It was a perfect fit for Tess and Nathan!
During the hustle and bustle of everyone getting their hair and makeup done I stepped into where Tess’ dress was and found Nathan’s daughter admiring her dress and holding it up next to Tess’ wedding gown. She was so cute!
Tess’ shoes were AMAZING! I have to admit I have a thing for shoes, lol, but c’mon what girl doesn’t. Tess took the time to bling her shoes out and they looked stunning!!!
Nathan is such a romantic as their officiant began their ring exchange he was handed the rings. When Tess saw the rings she was rather confused and stated that it was not her ring, everyone around began to giggle, Tess still confused and convinced this was not her ring stated a few more times, this was not her ring. Nathan with a huge smile on his face said no this IS your ring, then you see the happy shock on Tess’ face because the diamond was so big! It was seriously one of those moments that still makes me tear up.
Their first dance was such a romantic setting outside overlooking Vegas. The lights were beautiful and twinkling all around them.
They also shared a special Father Daughter dance between Tess and her Father and Nathan and his daughter, it was again such a sweet moment.
Congratulation Tess and Nathan! We have loved being able to photograph the two of you and share in so many special moments!
If you would like to see more of Tess and Nathan, check out their awesome vintage themed engagement session here!

Angel and Courtney were married last week at the Mandalay Bay and while staying here in Las Vegas for their honeymoon wanted to do a Trash The Dress photo Session with me. So we packed up the gear and headed out to the Dry Lake Bed for what turned out to be an AMAZING shoot and sunset! Courtney’s eyes are so amazing, don’t you think? Here are a few of my absolute favorite photos!

I met Frank and May at the Beautiful Bride Expo in Las Vegas this past January. When they emailed to book their engagement photography session I was thrilled and knew we would be in for a fun session. These guys made being a photographer too easy, they were so natural in front of the camera and together. Frank is a true romantic in every way and it just pours out of him when he is with May. I love to hear proposal stories so I had to find out how this romantic proposed to his lovely fiance’ and I was not disappointed 
He whisked her away to Catalina Island where they had a magical day together and then he asked May how her day was so far and she said perfect, then he said well lets make it even better and asked for her hand in marriage! So sweet!
For their session we headed to the Neon Boneyard Museum which is always a treat! Love, love, love this place! It is so cool to see all the vintage signs and history of Vegas.
Afterwards we finished up their engagement session down around Fremont Street.
This story behind this shot. We stepped into the dark alleyway to do a few photos when Frank and May saw the 111, this seems to be a theme with them! They said everywhere they go they always end up with the number 1 or 11 or 111 etc, how funny! I swear I don’t remember ever seeing this address next to this spot and I take photos here often. Sometimes I think things are just meant to be and on this day I believe Frank and May were meant to be photographed by me at these locations.
Your probably thinking, why on earth would you pose them at a bus stop poster right? Well this is actually a safe driving advertisement that I did the photography for I was so excited to see it that they asked for a photo with it Remember look both ways before crossing the street and stop for pedestrians in crosswalks!

Yesterday I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to photograph the beautiful Shali Torres of Hair and Makeup by Shali . You guys may recognize Shali as she is a past bride of ours. She was married last September at Griffin Mansions in Las Vegas and she chose our cinematographers to capture her amazing wedding! I was also able to create a Trash The Dress film starring her and her husband that we shot out at Red Springs.
A group of Las Vegas photographers wanted to put together a fun themed session and we were in need of models and Shali was so much fun to work with before that I knew she would be a perfect fit for our styled photo session. Originally the session was going to be held out at a dry lake bed near Las Vegas however a storm put a damper on our plans so we had to move it to D-Tyler’s studio. It still turned out awesome though just to prove we can make the most out of any location. We shot a few inside of the studio however I was in love with the lighting outside so that is where the majority of the photos were taken. We were able to take advantage of some amazing light just outside of the studio in an alleyway which worked perfect for the motorcycle shots.
Shali is a makeup artist and hairstylist here in Las Vegas so when it came to her session she knew exactly how she wanted to glamify herself { I like to make words up =) }. I think she did an amazing job. It is so important to have a great makeup artist for your photo shoot and wedding day. I have a few that I highly recommend, checkout my recommended vendors to see my favorites!
We were also in for a treat when one of the photographers arranged for a motorcycle for the session! Sweet! It is always fun to do something a little different and outside of the box so a motorcycle and alleyway were a perfect fit.
Have you considered doing your own bridal session? We offer photography and cinema bridal sessions. The photos are often displayed at your wedding reception. It is such a fun way to show off your photos! For our cinema package we create a one of a kind film that highlights you and all your beauty. This is a great treat to show your guests at your wedding reception as well. The other bonus to this is that it is a test run for your hair, makeup and accessories. Most brides go in for a trial run on your hair and makeup so why not get photographed at the same time!
We did head inside for a few shots in the studio. I love that Shali had her red heels and we had use of the red chair. I think it looks modern meets vintage wedding pinup. She looks so elegant, don’t you think?
