Get 'Out of the Box'!

Angel and Veronica engagements Red rock casino Vegas styleOver the years I have gotten questions from couples looking for ideas for trash the dress and engagements sessions. Todays newly engaged want to do something different and personal but sometimes don't know where to start. To get those creative juices flowing try first thinking about who you are as a couple. What do you love to do together? What sparks your flame? Then pick a theme for your session that reflects your relationship.
Your pictures should reflect you as a couple and the things you like to do. By picking a theme you're images will make a complete story and the images will have even more special meaning. 
Think out side the box. Go for something more than a pretty backdrop. Rent a cool car or ride antique bicycles. Recreate your first date or go play your favorite sport. Try a period theme like the 1950's if you're into retro. Take your Harley cruiser out for a spin together. Do something interesting and fun, you'll have a much better time and will love your images even more.

Southern Nevada Area

Brilliant Imagery 1950's Twin Lens Camera 
As we are a boutique photography company based in Southern Nevada, many couples ask where the best places in the Las Vegas area are for Trash the Dress or engagement session. So listed below are some of my favorite southern Nevada places. 

-.Downtown Las Vegas is a fun place to shoot either during the day or at night. Lots of lights and it still has a bit of that old Vegas feel.

-Uptown strip has the larger, nicer hotels. Most of these hotels have tons of gorgeous architecture, fountains and bridges. The down side to this area is that is is usually packed full of people. And the Vegas Welcome sign is always a popular choice, of course.

-The Neon Boneyard is totally awesome! It has all the old neon signs from the hotels and businesses. The downside is that to schedule a session there comes with a price tag.

-The areas outside of Las Vegas offer lots of interesting places as well. The desert is really beautiful almost anytime of the year. (Mid summer is often too hot to be out there though). Try the dry lake beds just south or north of Las Vegas. Or the Joshua tree forests on the way to Mt. Charleston.

-Valley of Fire or Red Rock Canyon both have beautiful red colored rock formations. Both places are less then an hour from downtown Vegas.

-Nelson, Nevada is just an hour out of the city. It's unique appeal come from all the strange collected 'junk' in this small ghost town. If you're looking for old gas pumps, crashed planes and rustic barns this is the place!

Whatever or wherever you choose, make it you're own!
