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?
