Heather and Darrin – Wedding Photography at Las Vegas Texas Station Hotel/Casino
As I mentioned a while back, my company is the in-house wedding photography company for Texas Station’s chapel here in Las Vegas. I shoot there whenever I can, but I usually am working with my clients that have all-day packages and one of my assistants shoots these events.
Texas Station clients typically are 15 to 20 minutes of photos of the bride and groom prior to the ceremony, an 8 to 10-minute ceremony and 20 minutes for formals. Even so, I believe we offer MUCH more than the typical “chapel” wedding photographer. We don’t limit poses or number of photos taken. We don’t hard-sell an $800 disc-of-images or 8×10 prints for $100. We don’t do cookie-cutter pictures with every bride (of course we do the standards but we also try to do more creative stuff). We even get photos of the signing of the marriage license. And, we do our trademark “special processing” to them, too!
Anyway, I did end up working with Heather and Darren, and I am so glad I did! They are such a cute couple, and SO FUN! This blog is a bit atypical – you’re going to see some “blooper” type photos, but really what you’ll see are Heather and Darren being relaxed.
Before I show the fun stuff, I did want to post two pre-ceremony photos… they have a cool mirror where we always get some nice creative photos:

The little flowergirl was VERY shy of the camera, but I got this precious photo:

The ringbearer, on the other hand, was NOT shy… what a ham!

These next three photos prove that minor “mistakes” can happen at a wedding ceremony but if you just go with the flow, everything will be fine! Remember, the most important part of your wedding day is saying two words: “I Do.” Anything after that is icing on the cake!
It happens: Flowergirl won’t walk down the aisle! So, pick her up, and drop the flowers yourself!

Heather was tearing up a bit, so she grabbed the first thing she could – her brother’s handkerchief! Don’t worry, it’s a rental!

They did a unity candle, and after they lit the center candle the officiant said, “The outer candles stay lit…” just as they both BLEW THEM OUT! This got a HUGE laugh from everyone, and Heather and Darrin took it in stride – relighting their candles.

Here’s two photos from the “formals”. Ok, so the first one isn’t typical.. but the 2nd one is!

Heather asked if I could stay for a few hours at the reception so we worked everything out and I stuck around. Got another 450+ shots at the reception, and here’s three that really reflect the fun of the evening:

Some nice photos here. Weddings offer a wide range of opportunities to capture the memorable moments that obtain when people come together to celebrate. Love the garter shot.
