I really wanted to update with this blog post yesterday, but you know LOVE was in the air and I was busy inhaling it

(IF you know what I mean

). Those two are sooooo beautiful and affectionate together: Texan and Oregonian they instantly clicked the moment they met! He’s a cowboy and she is a country girl. I couldn’t have thought of a better spot for their e-session than the one and only Red Rock Canyon. Hope you enjoy!

And with a one day delay:

LOVE to ALL!

Olga

These guys may be the most amazingly creative and sweet couple right of the bat! They traveled all the way from New York for their 10.10.10 wedding here and were married at Four Seasons! They decided to spend their after wedding Tuesday with me and Shawn by trashing Mink’s dress all over the best locations in Vegas

. Trash the Dress sessions are the perfect way to fix all the mood and busy-ness of your wedding day and bring a more relaxed atmosphere to the shoot in your wedding attire while also choosing cool places to be photographed at! We started at Four Seasons, and then hit all the cools pots that Vegas has to offer! And boy did we HAVE FUN with them! Liam was one of those grooms that  had a head full of ideas, and it was our task to narrow them down to the ones we will shoot…

Since Liam spent a LOT of time here being a kid on trips with his family, we started from the location that he remembers most: Downtown Las Vegas, that’s where it all started after all

…

Mink loves knitting…

And Liam picked up this weapon in honor of his childhood purchases for the “buy anything you want” $20 his parents would give him when in Vegas…

Haha… This location is one of my faves! Mink was very hungry after the session, and said her favorite place is In-n-out Burger, we didn’t hesitate to shoot out there! And look how happy she is

That look on her face is priceless

!

Thanks SO MUCH guys! Me and Shawn had SO MUCH FUN! I really hope this dance picks up your mood for the rest of the weekend

LOVE to ALL!

Olga

Oooooh, I have so many emotions about those two!

* Nostalgia about the European flavor they brought all the way from UK

* Friendship that filled the air by their funky and loving group of friends Sam and Neil shipped from home

* Fun that was brought by one of the funniest brides I have ever met

* Owe by Sam’s bending skills

* Beauty of the bride and the dress (did you see that dress yet?)

* LOVE that was everywhere this group went

* Tears when saying goodbye…

And the dress, one more time

Seriously guys! Happy Life together and I hope I will get a chance to come and see your babies soon

LOVE to ALL,

Olga

So Taylor and Brian brought some love to Vegas all the way from Chicago. Beautiful couple with an amazing and touching story was everything I wanted to photograph! Starting from their personalities (that I started to get to know from Taylor’s cute fashion blog and her Twitter way before their date), to their outfits to the limits they were willing to be pushing with us. We had to work with an amazing couple at an amazing location: Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. And by we I mean me and the guest photographer who is an amazing friend of our family from Hawaii: Shawn Fields with Black Tie Cinema. Shawn came up with some a-m-azing shots through the shoot!

I must say I am all about the fusion in my style, and post processing, and I often like to mix it up a bit… So when Shawn told me he wanted to help me out for this wedding, I was so on board! This way not only it’s fun for me, it is also a great way for the couple to get a mix of creativity in their wedding photos… So let’s see how all that jazz turned out

!

ALSO, I have a big favor to ask all of you: Mr Brian (aka “the groom”) was super shy about taking his pictures, and mentioned something about never having them taken again

, so I wanted to give him a great cheer and for everyone to let him know how great he was as a model! Please leave some love for him in the comments box!!!

She is awesome. He is super cool. They are FUN. Their wedding was THE BEST EVER! (aka “THE SHIT” by Jared)

Wow, I don’t even know where to start. First off, when I heard Lauren and Jared were engaged, I was super excited for them. I met L&J at Jill and Alan’s super fun Vegas wedding last year and got to know a bit of their fun personality then. So when I got an email form Lauren, I was so on board!!

They got married at Long Beach, CA at the Grand Event Center. First off, hats off to Lauren for planning the wedding so thoroughly… I think it was the only wedding, where the reception tables were all set up by 9am while the ceremony time was 6pm! I still remember one wedding I shot where the bride had to install the runner while in her wedding dress… So anyways, besides all the details and attention that was invested in preparation, the 250 guest event was full of FUN, LOVE, BOOZE (;)), amazing ENERGY and character coming from L&J and their closest friends

.

So on to the photos… We started the journey at the Syndicate Barber Shop in Long Beach, where all the boys got their groom on

. Awesome place with the character: 50’s era barber shop with retro gadgets, tattoo art, men’s magazines, booze and smoke is the ultimate place for the boys and photographers like me

. It just had a character, that a lot of places are missing nowadays… Loved it!

Isn’t this place awesome? BTW that was Jared getting the ultimate make-over!

And then there was the wedding day! Meet Lauren and her Louboutins

(mniam!)

Ode to the Hasta la Muerte:

I was contacted to shoot Yukie and Shawn’s wedding by my previous client, who is also Yukie’s aunt

. This beautiful wedding took place at Los Prados golf club in Las Vegas. I loved the intimate feel of the ceremony site that Los Prados provides. We had the weather throwing feet for us though

. Rain-sunshine caprese delayed the ceremony but it was well worth waiting

…

Congrats Yukie and Shawn for making your unity official, I couldn’t but notice the LOOK, the LOVE you were sharing between each other! It was all over the air! LOVE, I mean

Vanessa and Shawn celebrated their 4th Wedding Anniversary with the trip to Vegas! And they wanted to do the couple session here as another way to capture their love, and their trip

… Since their job is rather conservative, I thought the best place for their session was something cool, like Nelson Ghost Town… Needless to say they were up for it and I think we came up with some cool shots out there!

LOVE to ALL,

Olga
