2010 Las Vegas Wedding Photography photo montages. 2010 has come to a close! Here are 2 video montages of my favorite wedding photos from my Las Vegas weddings in 2010. I really enjoyed working with my brides and grooms this year.
These wedding photography videos are long but each has over 100 photos, and a very good representation of my current wedding photography work here in Las Vegas.

Joey and Alicia are getting married at Silverstone Golf Club (we actually recommended them to check it out and they LOVE it) so we figured an Engagement Session there would be in order. Jeremy and I did this shoot, collaborating on the poses and Jeremy did most of the shooting while I was the “lighting technician” (read: lugging the big off-camera strobe around the golf course).
Usually the groom is “along for the ride” but Joey was really into this. I think part of it was his excitement of getting nice photos of his beautiful fiancee, but he was genuinely excited to be involved. That is GREAT and really shows his love and committment to Alicia.
Of course it could also just be “the way it is” with Joey, Alicia and their family… because when they came to proof their photos, they had an entourage of people including moms and aunts and grandmas! That was nerve-wracking but really fun to see the various reactions when we showed a photo.
So anyway, poor Joey and Alicia, it was very bright and we not only brought our big flash but also a reflector to help with fill light. They probably felt like they were part of a movie production or something…
Silverstone has this sschuuhweet arch at the front entrance. Very dramatic! They call it “Mediterranean Style”, so we did this Michelangelo-ish pose under the arch (shout out to P.G. for that term!). And FYI, the sky is un-touched other than saturation and contrast (the clouds really are in that cross-hatch pattern!)

With the cool clouds that day, we wanted to use them as a backdrop as much as possible. We just love the sky, the wall, and the fun “come hither big boy” type pose that Alicia had.
This was a practice shot (working on settings) and it just happened to be a great expression and perfect “glow” lighting…
This one was processed very “warm” to bring out the red highlights in Alicia’s hair to match Joe’s red hair…
Here’s one of Alicia’s “glamour shots”. The neat thing about Silverstone is there’s lots of interesting locations in a small area…this area has some slightly industrial-looking concrete stairs.
Here’s another “awwwww…..”
Time to goof off a little – we had plenty of the “posed” stuff…
Here’s a bit of an optical illusion – you’d think they were in some sort of meadow or field, wouldn’t you? Well they weren’t… and how we did that will remain our little secret
(but there’s no photoshop involved)
They couldn’t hide from our big telephoto lens!
Our style is usually “soft/glowy and clear/clean” but we pushed our boundaries a little bit… the shot really needed a “spy” look, some distortion, blur, and “noise” added
Last one of the blog, by now it was almost dark and there were lots more clouds. Oh, and now we figured out why Joey liked this photo shoot so much! He got to kiss his beautiful fiancee A LOT! (watch your hands, young man!)
We were so happy that Joey and Alicia and their “entourage” liked our work. We knew that different processing styles are liked/disliked by different people – and of course mom and grandma didn’t like some of the shots that Alicia and Joey liked (and vice-versa) – but that’s why we always do varied processing on our photos AND give the “original” version on the disc, too!

Jeremy and I knew within 10 seconds of Dean and Jennifer walking into our office that they would become clients – and be almost like family… Dean saw our Subaru STI (photos of the car at Red Rock Canyon can be seen by clicking on that link) parked outside of the office and commented on how he is also a “car guy”. And, after an hour or so (the first 30 minutes spent talking about cars!) we were booked for DJ and Photography!
Anyway, to the event! I spent the pre-ceremony time with Jennifer in their top-floor suite overlooking the mountains and golf course. By the way, the Suncoast Hotel and Casino is a great place to have a wedding and reception! Here’s a couple from there:
At the same time, Jeremy was “2nd shooting” with Dean (Kirk, as his friends call him) in the ceremony room. This is one big benefit of having two photographers, and an even bigger benefit of having one female and one male photographer – the groom and groomsmen tend to be a little more “loose” and relaxed. Here’s a compilation we know Dean will love. Keep in mind, Jeremy DID get “formal” shots, but how priceless are these semi-formal moments for a groom?!? Brides love to see these too, because a lot of photographers neglect photos of the groom…
You’ll want to click on this one, just like you can with any of my blog photos, to see a larger version…
Need more convincing that you should have 2 photographers? These two photos were taken at exactly the same second! Jeremy got Jennifer and her dad, and I got Dean and Jason (the best man).
We were also able to take our new toys (the off-camera flashes that I mentioned a few posts back). Jeremy’s camera was wireless to those flashes and I used on-camera during the ceremony. So, look back up at the groomsmen photos, notice the great depth and clarity that we can get with off-camera flash!
And here’s another that Jeremy got, see the almost 3-D effect that the multiple off-camera flashes create?
After the ceremony, it was decided that we’d head down to the pool area for all the “formals”. We were all-for this idea since we knew then we wouldn’t have to do the boring stand-up-straight-in-front-of-the-altar shots… and we knew that Dean and Jennifer weren’t that type of couple!
The problem was, we didn’t have too much time, and even though it is Las Vegas it was COLD outside… so, with the great help of the groomsmen and a couple others, we were able to take all the equipment to the pool for proper lighting (it was dark!). We had to get a few photos on the curved stairway…
And of course we got all the “formals”, but this blog is already getting too long! Here’s one of our “signature” photos…
At the reception… Dean really hammed it up for the Garter Pull!
The above photo was with the off-camera flashes and I can’t say enough how pleased I am with the improvement in quality simply from those flashes! For the heck-of-it, we took two photos within a few seconds of each other. Same camera model, same lens model, but one is on-camera flash, and the other is off-camera flash…
Now, with the new off-camera flashes… both photos are good, but this one is several levels above!
Two more… first my “signature” party-photo:
And, taken around the same time by Jeremy, the “behind the scenes” version (yes, I am laying on the floor in the center of that mob)!
We ended up with a bit over 1100 “keeper” photos for Dean and Jennifer. And, we ended up with some great memories of a super couple! I love being a Photographer in Las Vegas!

Ok, everyone is doing it so I guess I will too! As a Las Vegas Wedding Photographer I have many great memories from 2008. Here’s my Top 5:
Pre-List: It should go without saying that my brides and grooms have made most of my best memories – without exception I’ve been amazed at how COOL my clients are; I seem to attract very laid-back couples – either that or (as I’ve been told) I tend to MAKE them be laid-back and relaxed. Either way, my 2008 Brides and Grooms were AWESOME to work with!
Now for the list:
- Far and away my best photography-related memory for 2008: Working with Autism Speaks. I did a blog about this HERE. For both myself and for Jeremy, this was an amazingly rewarding organization to be involved with.
- Receiving the “Creme de la Creme” (Best of the Best) award from WeddingMBA, the Wedding Merchant’s Business Academy. It’s great to win awards from our bride’s recommendations (like the 2007 Best of Weddings that we won from TheKnot magazine)… but when we were one of only around 20 companies IN THE ENTIRE USA to win this award, it’s a HUGE accomplishment!
- This one may sound funny, but I enjoyed making several of my brides CRY this year. Don’t worry, it’s in a good way… brides almost always get a bit teary-eyed when they come into the office to review their wedding photography! It usually happens right around the “first kiss” photo.
But it does make me feel good that I was able to Capture the Emotion, and help revive that emotion later on! - This one may be a little self-serving but I always very much enjoy seeing positive reviews for my work, whether it’s here on my blog (and you can see recent comments in the right-side margin OR by clicking at the bottom of a post where it says “xx Comments”. I am also proud of all of the 5-Star ratings and great reviews that D. Jay’s Entertainment (and myself, and my photographers) received on multiple online ratings websites, like WeddingWire, OpenList, and Kudzu. In 2008, we became Las Vegas’s Highest-Rated and most Award-Winning DJ and Photography company!
- New contacts – wedding planners and wedding/reception facilities, and being invited to either be EXCLUSIVE, or on their Preferred Vendor list. We are on over 2 DOZEN Preferred Vendor lists, and are exclusive with many Wedding Planners and wedding/reception faclilities. I’m also very proud of the Endorsements that we’ve received at WeddingWire (click link and scroll down just a little bit to see the endorsements)!
2008 has been an amazing year business-wise, and I know my photography has developed (pun intended) greatly this year – at the beginning of the year I decided that I would start being a “Contemporary” photographer… photojournalistic, cutting-edge, with tasteful processing done to my photos. No more “shoot and print”… I have been working on making each of my photos more than just a photo… possibly touching on ‘art’!
Thank you to all of my brides and grooms for a great 2008! And, I’m looking forward to all my new weddings for 2009!
