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

Back in early January, I submitted 2 photos to a photo contest at Sahara Camera Center here in Las Vegas. The theme was “Tis The Season”. It took a while, but I found out a couple days ago that my photo was chosen as the winner! I won a nice (small) camera bag, which will come in handy for those Engagement Sessions where I don’t need to take ALL of my various equipment.
See, not ALL my work is Wedding Photography, although being a Wedding Photographer is my passion!
Here’s the photo that won the contest. It’s my nephew, and was not posed at all (well, the photo in the thought bubble was posed, but not the reaction to the present) - Click photo for larger version!

January 20th, 2009Engagements, Family
Jeremy and I spent an hour with Will, Cherry, and their two wonderful children (remember, we don’t post names of kids on our blog) yesterday. They are an awesome family! Their son is just 5 years old and is quite the camera-ham! Their daughter is absolutely beautiful and took a while to warm up, but we got some very good ones of her too!
Will and Cherry are getting married next month and we’re really hoping to earn their wedding-day business… as part of the Bridal Spectacular, we offered them a FREE 1-hour engagement session so we could get to know them better. It seems that we all get along very well so we’ll see!
This blog will be a mix of Engagement photos and Family Portrait/Family Photography. As with a lot of our private sessions, Jeremy and I work together; he is usually the one clicking the shutter and I use my “eye” to find great locations and poses… We had a blast working together for this short (1-hour) shoot:
This photo was only the 4th “click” of the day - and it was hard to choose between the first 4…

Now, mom and dad… the processing on this one is called “Summer Haze”, and we did our own tweaking to it.

Off to the playground…

Of course Will and Cherry hopped on, too!

Walking to the next location, Jeremy caught the kids playing around a yellow pole. Amazing how a great “eye” can see an interesting shot, huh?

This park (almost) has it all… waterfall, fun playground, a cool brick wall, bridges, etc. These 3 shots (obviously) are from the brick wall area…

Off to the bridge, and the little guy was clowning around - this one is actually not posed at all… just his reaction after the camera was pointed at him.

Lots of color at the park but we have to get a few black-and-whites in… here’s one of them.

Now it’s time for the love-it-or-hate-it photo. The famous (infamous?) “bobble head” shot. Like it or not, it’s FUN and loose.

Then we made our way back to the waterfall area for some sunset-type, posed family shots. We looked up and saw an amazing sunset - and got this photo:

Thanks to all 4 of you for an enjoyable hour! Can’t wait until this Sunday where you’ll see all 175 or so “keepers”!

Admittedly I don’t do a lot of family portraits or family photography in Las Vegas, but family photos are very similar to wedding photography and engagement sessions. I really enjoy working with kids (as my regular readers know from all the “cute little girl” photos I’ve been posting from my weddings)!
As a sidenote, for any of my family portraits I do not use my subject’s names when I post them in my blog; I do have permission to post the kids photos but we want to be as careful as possible not to have privacy issues. So, I apologize for using “the son” and “the daughter” type language instead of the first names!
Anyway, last week I worked with a great family - the son is friends with our son and they played on the same baseball team. We went out near Red Rock and had a good time with mom, the 2 kids, and 2 dogs!
For anyone NOT from Las Vegas, to answer the question… YES we have trees that change colors and lose their leaves in the fall!
Just the kids together:
The son with his dog…
A very warm, summery process was used on this photo… isn’t she adorable?!!?
Had some fun with what I call the “bobble head” photo. Wide angle lens about 6″ from the subject’s face results in this very interesting perspective… and I must say - this young lady had REFUSED at first to show her teeth when she smiled - she opened right up and was comfortable with us within just a few shots! And, near the end of the session, I was honored when she asked me to call her by her “short” name instead of her “formal” name… especially after her mom explained that only her friends and family are allowed to do that!
We stayed until nearly dark. This photo required a flash AND a reflector to help make the subjects “pop” while still maintaining the AMAZING color of the sky and the clouds.
Jeremy and I really enjoyed this session, thanks guys!

December 3rd, 2008Family
Way back in August we left Las Vegas and went back “home” to Michigan for a vacation. While we were there, we did portrait sessions with our sons, our nieces and nephews. You know how they always say, “Doctor, Heal Thyself”… well surprisingly I don’t have a lot of photos of our sons! And, when I do take them, I rarely do any post-processing. So, this year I decided to finally do full processing on some photos and give them as gifts to our family.
This series was taken (obviously) on the banks of a river in Michigan… although for this first pic you can’t really see the river!
Out over the river, some selective-coloring done to this one…
Sun was harsh that day and I didn’t bring my entire set-up from Las Vegas so I had to make due… but here’s another of our little one…
Our older one just had braces put on about 2 months prior to this shoot, and of course was a little self-conscious about them, so no luck getting him to smile…
A few days later we went to Jeremy’s parent’s house (an old farm) and got a ton of photos in-and-around their old barn. This was one of my faves…
And this one, too…
Here’s our sons with two of Jeremy’s nieces…
Oh, look for a very special announcement tomorrow!
