Las Vegas Photographer for Weddings and Event Photography TiffanyG
Wedding Photography in Las Vegas - Weddings, Bridal Photos, Engagements, Families, Kids, Portraits, and Events.

October 19th, 2008WeddingsPhotography at JW Marriott Las Vegas is always SO much fun! It is a Las Vegas Photographer’s dream! The grounds are absolutely amazing, with waterfalls, beautiful green areas, bridges over little streams, etc. I work a lot at “The JW” (as we call it in our office), and the DJ’s at D. Jay’s Entertainment are out there often as well.
I noticed that I don’t have a lot of “getting ready” photos on my blog, and many of my brides ask me to cover this portion of their day. Well, we had an awesome room (with amazing light coming in through the patio door), and of course an absolutely beautiful bride, so I thought I’d share some “getting ready” photos!
The natural light from the patio door was perfect for a nice portrait.
The entire wedding had so much color, being outside and with the beautiful blue accents on the dress, but I really felt I needed to provide Cristina with a couple “timeless” photos, and the best way to do that is with black and white. This photo is “overexposed” on purpose to accent her figure and take the attention away from the trees, etc. that were outside the window. It also helps give the photo my trademark “glow” look…
A nice split-tone really accentuated Cristina’s complexion and helped the overall “feel” of this one:
I didn’t really intend on posting any ceremony shots, but I changed my mind
The rings, using my long telephoto lens from about 30 feet away.
We got so many nice after-ceremony shots around the grounds of The JW, this is one of my favorites:
For long-time readers of my blog, you’ve seen this shot before, it’s one I attempt when the veil allows for it, and my brides/grooms always love it!
The big round window in the reception room inspired me to do a silhouette photo, if you squint your eyes just right you can see a heart? See it?!?
Ok, well that’s about 4 more photos than I usually post, I got a little carried away! As always, I thank Cristina and Jason for allowing me to be a part of their wedding day. It was an honor and a privilege!

October 18th, 2008Engagements, Flash Montages
Well, I’ve finally gotten into the 2000’s and am able to create Flash presentations of my Las Vegas Wedding Photography!
I did a few of them for my previous clients at no charge as samples, and this will be a very inexpensive option for my brides and grooms in the future!
Here’s one I did for Christina and Jeremiah
And another one I did for Aaron and Sarah

October 18th, 2008Sports
I hope you don’t mind the quick departure from Las Vegas Wedding Photography; please indulge me for a moment.
Remember a month or so ago I mentioned that we like to get out and “Challenge” ourselves with shoots of things other than people? Well, last weekend we took our Subaru out to Red Rock (inspired after shooting Christina and Jeremy’s Mustang).
Jeremy has been shooting automotive and motorsports on-and-off for 20 years so he took the lead in this shoot. Sorry for the watermarks, we typically don’t watermark our images but unfortunately the automotive-photo industry is a lot different than the wedding industry…
Our 14-year-old son clicked the shutter on this one, after we set all the settings for him. I think he’s a pro photographer in the making!
So, how can I relate this to Las Vegas Wedding Photography? Well, how about this… if you are a “car person” and want portraits with your car, or just portraits of your car, then give me a call!

Jeremy and I recently were asked to be involved in an organization called “Autism Speaks“. It’s a national not-for-profit organization, and (from their website), here’s their cause:
“We are dedicated to funding global biomedical research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and cure for autism; to raising public awareness about autism and its effects on individuals, families, and society; and to bringing hope to all who deal with the hardships of this disorder. We are committed to raising the funds necessary to support these goals.“
When Jenifer from the Texas Station chapel and banquet/reception/meetings department asked us to volunteer our time to Photograph and DJ for this amazing event, we immediately jumped at the chance! I normally don’t brag about the volunteer work that we do for not-for-profit organizations but I wanted to post this to help promote the Walk and also to support Autism Speaks.
A few days before the event, KVBC (the Local NBC affiliate) came to our office, along with Megan and her mom. We met Megan at the kick-off dinner and she aspires to be a radio DJ… so we invited her to be our “guest DJ” during the Walk. Here she is, being interviewed in our office, standing next to one of our smaller DJ setups.

And here’s Megan and her mom during another part of the interview:

Jeremy is going to kill me for posting this one, but here he is being interviewed. According to him, “thank goodness they only used my voice” during the actual news piece that aired the day before the walk!

Here’s a few shots from the Walk itself, my instructions were to get pictures of “people smiling, having fun”.

I also needed to get a shot of Geoffrey from Toys-R-Us, since they are the National Sponsor… here’s him with the local reps!

They had a bounce house, and I was able to sneak this one of this beautiful little girl with AMAZING blue eyes! Look close, see proud daddy in the back?!?
Autism Speaks Las Vegas Walk Now For Autism
Megan trained with Jeremy for a few hours and was very excited to play for the crowd. This shot was taken just before the walk. What you don’t see is the 1000+ people sitting in the stands at Sam Boyd Stadium… Megan got very interactive, and got the crowd to do the YMCA dance! She was AMAZING! Jeremy commented that even after 18 years of DJing, he still gets nervous in front of really large crowds - Megan took it all in stride!

A posed shot we took for Megan, in her D. Jay’s Entertainment shirt that we gave her as a gift.

It was an absolute honor to be involved with this event and with Autism Speaks. We hope they will allow us to be involved again next year!

October 3rd, 2008Engagements
It had been a while since we’ve been to Red Rock for an Engagement Session, so we were very excited when Christina and Jeremiah decided to go out there. And we weren’t disappointed! Nothing beats an attractive, fun couple in a beautiful location!
As we do in many of our Engagement Sessions, I do most of the posing and composing of the shots, but Jeremy (my Jeremy) actually shoots. So, consider this a collaborative effort!
For my regular readers, you’ll know that I get “bored” at posting the same types of photos with the same processing and web-frames, so I changed it up a bit for this blog post…
We met at the Spring Mountain Ranch State Park where we were promptly (and rudely) kicked out (who would think you need a $50 permit to shoot photos in a STATE PARK?!?) Well we got a few quick ones in, here’s one…
Once we got out of there and to Red Rock Canyon, of course we had to get the standard heads-together shot:
We were really torn about the processing on several of the shots - Christina and Jeremy are laid-back, jeans-and-black-shirt type people which would lend to “vintage” type processing… but Red Rock has such beautiful colors we hated to wash them out. This one worked, though:
This one was taken with my big long zoom lens from a distance away, so they could be a little more relaxed than with a camera in their faces! This one is also processed “vintage” but not quite as strongly as the one above:
ZOOOOMMM!
Jeremiah (Christina’s Jeremiah) had a sweet Mustang so we included it in several photos, this was one of their faves:
It was getting pretty dark down in this valley so we had to do quite a bit of post-processing to get the sky back to a nice blue, we thought this was a very fun shot, I wouldn’t really call it “artistic” by any means, but it shows Christina and Jeremiah’s personalities.
We took just short of 200 photos in this 2.5 hour session, in at least 20 different locations and with dozens of poses. We hope Christina and Jeremiah enjoyed the shoot (and the photos) as much as we did!
