These two are a crack-up! We had a quick engagement session on the Las Vegas Strip, just 1 hour but we ended up with over 100 unique photos. Melissa had made some custom Pirate hats, and hers had a veil on it, so I had to do my signature veil-shot!
For new readers, make sure you click on each photo for a cool pop-up larger version!
This is what I had to “put up” with (and I say that in jest and with love for Josh and Melissa)… they crack each other up!
And here’s the back of the cool Pirate hats Melissa made, aren’t they cool?!?
I think Josh tends to say things a bit under his breath that gets Melissa smiling – and that’s AWESOME! One of the keys to a great relationship is to be able to get each other to laugh!
Turn-around is fair play, right?
They had fun looking at all the sites!
And here they are in a very warmly-processed photo, suited to Josh and Melissa’s personalities.
Josh and Melissa are so cool that they even came and joined D. Jay’s Entertainment at our karaoke event at Sierra Gold (Warm Springs and Stephanie). They are a blast, and I can’t wait to shoot their wedding at Springs Preserve!

FUN FUN FUN… these two and their families are AWESOME! Tamika hired me to do a couple hours of photography at their very laid-back reception at Cheeseburger Restaurant (in the Miracle Mile shops at Planet Hollywood). In just a couple hours I was able to provide this couple 330+ unique photos! ALL of the photos were “candid” so don’t expect to see any portraits or many posed shots here in my blog post.
For this blog, you’ll see the FUN that happens at weddings in Las Vegas, especially when they have a great DJ and great guests!
CHEERS!
We had a surprise visit from Elvis…. the King himself! I shot a picture of him with almost every guest there – they will be great keepsakes for all! Here’s one of the bridesmaids who REALLY liked Elvis! Kind of reminds me of a Prom picture – could you imagine bringing Elvis to your prom?
This is one of my favorite photos from the entire night… no it’s not the “best” photo but the expressions are priceless… Marius looks like he is “up to no good” and Tamika’s telling him “I wouldn’t do that if I were you”.
About halfway through the party I noticed grandma talking to Tamika. It was clear she was giving some heartfelt advice from years of knowledge and wisdom. She had the greatest hat on, and the pride she had in her beautiful fingernails was apparent. I was able to frame up this picture without them even realizing I was taking it. To me, this photo speaks volumes:
As the bride and groom left the reception, I snuck up behind them for a “goodbye” shot. I took the liberty of using some “selective color” to set the mood and if you look close you’ll see another edit I did… a custom sign!
And finally, we did have a chance to get some photos at The Vegas Sign. By this time, one of my assistant photographers had finished another event and joined us. He actually took this photo, which came out GREAT, and I did a little bit of post-processing to it:
We all had an amazing time at this event, thanks guys for letting us all share in your celebration!

Since not all photography is “Las Vegas Photography”, I frequent a lot of message boards for photographers from all over the world where we share our photos and critique each other’s work. Every once in a while I’ll show a photo that my client ABSOLUTELY LOVES, but the pro photogs will absolutely HATE. Usually that’s for very technical reasons…. exposure, flash use, shadows, etc.
Of course, like all Photographers, I strive to take a perfect “technical” picture every time. But sometimes, that just doesn’t happen. What I DO almost always get is the EMOTION… the “moment”. You won’t find me missing a shot because I’m adjusting my flash or the lighting isn’t just right! Photoshop does some amazing things!
Anyway, I was thinking about my personal theory on Photography, as it relates to my work here, for weddings, family, sports, and some portrait photography. I decided that I would write my 5 “goals”, in order, and publicize those goals to my clients and potential clients.
Here goes:
- Capture the “moment” and the “emotion”. This includes helping the client(s) get into a good mindset so I can get good photos (ie. having fun when appropriate!).
- Make sure my client will like (or love) the shot. Consult to find out the client’s styles and wants, but push creative/artistic boundaries. Don’t forget about the “must have” poses/photos.
- Composition/Exposure/Lighting. Understand that good composition (or cropping) and processing can make a mediocre photo/moment into an “OH WOW” photo. While on-location, take a good “technical” shot, but don’t shortchange the client by giving them an unfinished photo! Post Processing can make the difference!
- Run a smooth and organized photoshoot. Especially with group pictures or with the formal photography before/after a wedding ceremony – the family and guests appreciate a photographer who can (nicely) “take charge” and get the pictures done quickly and professionally.
- Quality above quantity. HOWEVER, especially with event photography, most clients do want “candid” or “snapshot” type photos of their friends and family. Not every photo needs to be magazine-quality, but make them magazine-quality when it’s appropriate.
Thank you for reading this longer-than-normal blog post. I hope it gives you a bit more insight into my style!
Comments welcome, of course!!
