Welcome to downtown Las Vegas! Home of sparkly jumpsuits, all-white suits, and pre-wedding photoshoots. Downtown Las Vegas has it all! Thomas and Amanda walked down Fremont Street from their posh downtown Las Vegas accommodations, drinks in hand and ready to shoot. These two traveled here from Canada and tied the knot at A Little White Wedding Chapel. We met up about 90 minutes before their ceremony and squeezed in a quick and fun session to celebrate their elopement. Pre- or post-wedding sessions are gaining in popularity in Las Vegas, as quickie chapel weddings often include a few images an ..read more

The Backstory // A Las Vegas Elopement Have you ever wanted to secretly run away and get married? Chances are the answer to that question just might be yes, especially if you’re reading this post. And are you guys in for a real treat today. Whatever you do – don’t miss the video of this Las Vegas elopement below… Just over two years ago, Samantha and Ben contacted me and wanted to know if I’d be willing to shoot a wedding, but not share any of the images…just yet. They were eloping, but their friends and family didn’t know. Now, this request is NOT uncommon – at all! Lots of clients have asked ..read more

Ah yes, the age old question of every bride – maybe ever?! How many hours of wedding coverage do I need? Vegas weddings are very different than the weddings I grew up around as a kid. Southern weddings were long and humid, and involved lots (and lots) of hours of photography coverage. Oftentimes, “bridals” (portraits of the bride alone) were taken weeks before the wedding. This is because the wedding day would be too busy and chaotic to have time for portraits of her alone. I can’t imagine what that would be like for one of my wedding clients. What are Las Vegas weddings like? Las Vegas wed ..read more

These two beautiful humans still make me smile when I look back on their Vegas elopement gallery. It’s only been almost a year since their wedding, so I figured now is a great time to post about it! ? Enjoy!! They tied the knot at A Little White Chapel and then we (quickly) shot all over town. After their ceremony, we traveled to the Smith Center, Downtown and then to the Neon Museum. They rented a car which made transportation super easy between locations. *I would be happy to make transportation recommendations based on our timeline and locations if you’d like! If you’d like information re ..read more

‘Tis the season to let you in on what actually happens behind the scenes around here. So – let’s talk seasons! ? Fall wedding season in Las Vegas this year was the craziest I have ever seen – and I’ve been a Las Vegas wedding photographer full-time since 2011. October nearly killed me (I’m only half joking) and November was about the same if I’m honest. Now that it’s December, the dust has settled a bit and I can FINALLY focus on 2019 and checking a few tasks off the giant to-do list that has been on my desk staring at me since early 2017. 2017, y’all. Update my website. Shoot videos for my w ..read more

I recently posted on Facebook that I would be accepting family commissions moving forward into 2019. Some of my photographer friends asked me (genuinely) if I had lost my mind. And the answer is no – I have not lost my mind. But I have decided that this is something I truly enjoy, and I want to make it accessible for more people. I feel like in the world of Instagram styling and Pinterest perfection, some of my clients feel like if they can’t have a flawless family portrait, that maybe they shouldn’t do them at all. And that makes me really sad. I don’t specialize in the traditional Las Vegas ..read more

I asked for silly faces, and this is what I got! ? Jonathan and Diana didn’t want their photos to be “too serious” and they delivered! We all know that I LOVE a good Neon Museum wedding. This is what can be accomplished there in just an hour, if you can believe it. Ceremony, photo shoot, lots of shenanigans. Wash, rinse, repeat. This place is magical. ✨✨✨ * rounding the corner to see her groom for the first time * * the kiss after the kiss ..read more

Dan and Harriet got married here in Las Vegas last year, and I had the honor of being their witness and photographer for the afternoon! Harriet runs a wedding blog in the UK and she asked me if she could post a recap of their wedding day on her site and what their experience was like – and of course, I said, “Yes, please!” I feel that it’s so important to hear from previous clients firsthand and get a sense for what their day was like and how things unfolded. For many (many!) of our Las Vegas elopements, I may be the only witness or guest at your ceremony (and I might even sign your marriage ..read more
