Jesse & Katy - Las Vegas Engagement Session Photography
38

February 17th, 2009TiffanyGEngagements

Get a load of this amazing couple! I did a short (1-hour) engagement session photography with Jesse and Katy on Sunday. We did a “simple” shoot at another local park and in ONE hour, we got 111 unique photos! I am so lucky to be doing the wedding-day photography in May for this great couple, who are as nice as they are good looking!

Katy loves the “over-the-top” type processing - SO, for you brides looking at my samples, if you don’t like the processing then please don’t worry - I don’t have to process yours like this. But, I do pride myself in finding out what styles my brides like, and then customizing all the special processing to those preferences. And, as always, my brides get ALL versions of the photos so they can pick-and-choose!

These first 3 photos are very similar, but I wanted to show various processing that we do. I didn’t want to show the exact same photo but I wanted it to be a good comparison…

This one, I LOVE… it’s a split-tone, with some custom adjustments and a texture overlay. There’s just so much FUN in this photo!

Kind of similar to the first photo, but I think it captures a lot more of the “love” emotion…

Same processing on the following 2 photos… these two could be considered “over the top” so again, don’t worry if you don’t like the processing, all my brides get both versions of the photos!

Katy loves the “selective color” process (where the photo is mostly black-and-white, but certain elements are left in color). You’ve all seen it - it’s typically the flowers or something like that… we didn’t have flowers so we tried this:

I got about 6 versions of this now-standard shot… and every one of them had some amount of “attitude” coming from the background. And by “attitude”, I mean it in a good way. This one is more of a “I’m waiting!” type look, and Jesse looked great in the foreground, too!

You could probably tell from the previous photos that Katy has some beautiful eyes… I did this close-up crop more for Jesse - he needs to print this as a wallet size and keep it with him at all times!

Thanks guys, you are GREAT! My brain is already in high gear thinking about creative shots for your wedding day!

I adore the photos! You really captured what a great couple Jesse and Katy make — of course — I’m prejudiced because I’m Katy’s Mom. I’m so happy you are doing the wedding pics, Tiffany, and I look forward to meeting you. Katy says you and your husband are great to work with and will help make the “big day” even more special. Thanks.
Katy February 19th, 2009 at 11:38 am

Tiffany did an amazing job with these photos! She made us so comfortable, and that is not always an easy thing to do, especially when it was as cold as it was that day! I had a blast shooting with her and would recommend her to anyone!! Thanks Tiffany and Jeremy! You made us look beautiful!

These pictures are beautiful! You can really see the love and emotion come through in the shots- and how much fun they had doing it. I’m sure the wedding photos will be even more gorgeous!
Robbi February 19th, 2009 at 11:45 am

I love this photos!!! Tiffany you did an excellent job of capturing some “special” moments between Jesse and Katy. You can really see how much they love each other and how much fun they have together. I can’t wait to see what you come up with for the wedding pictures.
Anita February 19th, 2009 at 12:26 pm

Katy and Jessa are a gorgeous couple, so taking some pretty pictures of them would be pretty easy to do…but capturing the love and fun they have together - that’s a totally different thing. You’ve done it beautifully Tiffany!!
Vickie February 19th, 2009 at 12:35 pm

These photos are great, Tiffany! What a beautiful couple! I love the different concepts, like having one in the foreground and one in the background,the focusing in on the wedding ring, and the black & white w/ a splash of color effects. Best of all though, is the love and fun that is shared between Katy and Jesse - and that cannot be staged!
Brandi February 19th, 2009 at 12:55 pm

I love these pictures. I can’t wait to see the wedding pictures Katy!
Brittany February 19th, 2009 at 1:05 pm

What can you say about two gorgeous people who are in love? The photos so capture that love in their eyes, in the way they look at each other, hold each other and are together. I know the wedding photographs are going to be awesome!
Jana February 19th, 2009 at 2:25 pm

Alaina February 19th, 2009 at 2:31 pm

These are adorable! Thank you for sharing. I love the ones she picked out on the blog. My faves were in the beginning the one you both laughing/ smiling and looking away and in the very end right before the kissing pics. But, really, you cannot go wrong. These pics are great of both of you. Colleen saw me looking at them, so I shared. She says, “Katy is BEAUTIFUL!” I have to agree! Miss you!
Cheryl, George, Brian & TJ Kountourogiannis (Jesse's cousins) February 19th, 2009 at 3:17 pm

Welcome to the family Katy! These pictures are amazing ~ they show how happy you are.

Can’t wait to see the wedding pictures.

Congratulations!

Love & Best Wishes

Absolutely beautiful photos of this stunning couple - you have captured all of their love and happiness in these pics, which is not easy to do. I loved all of it!
Nina February 19th, 2009 at 5:00 pm

Wow! These pictures are amazing. They are SO in love and it shows in every picture. I really like the first picture on the blog - shows their true joy in each other - and I love that you did a cropped picture of the gorgeous Katy for Jesse to carry in his wallet. Can’t wait to see the wedding pictures.
Joani February 19th, 2009 at 5:03 pm

Katy and Jesse are such a great couple and the pictures show just how in love they are and how excited they are to begin this new chapter in their lives. I agree with Katy, I like the black and white photos with the “pop” of color. I would recommend you to anyone looking for a photographer and I’m even more excited now to see the wedding photos.
Aunt Diana February 19th, 2009 at 5:12 pm
