Ngoc and Sean broke the usual traditions with their Sam Houston Park pre-wedding photoshoot. With their family putting together a very small intimate backyard wedding later that week, they still wanted some traditional looking bride and groom photos before the wedding day. So all dressed up like they were going to the chapel, we met up at Sam Houston Park in Downtown Houston in the late afternoon for their beautiful photo session. The session took place last July, swatting swarms of mosquitoes and sweating, but you can't tell that and in the end the photos turned out great! We walked down to the Sabine Bridge over Buffalo Bayou just in time to catch some awesome neon pink clouds floating over the downtown skyline and catch the sunset.
So how do you get married in Las Vegas? Destination elopement weddings are SO much fun. Over the 10 years I lived in Las Vegas, I photographed many weddings where it was just myself, the couple and the officiant. Read my how-to guide below on how to elope and have me come travel to photograph it of course! I offer complete packages and can help you plan it all.
I love how every destination elopement to Las Vegas is different from the next. Ameera and Michael decided to run off to Vegas to elope and have a shoot in their amazing attire the next day around the Strip for a few hours. They want to have a very large wedding and saving up for it in a couple of years, but decided they couldn't wait to officially tie the knot and have some time together. Ameeras blush bridal gown was amazing and made of Faille fabric. I truly had never seen anything like it before.
I can't believe after living in Las Vegas for 10+ years now, I had never made it to the Grand Canyon. This Grand Canyon wedding was an adventure with the bride, groom, and their three young boys in tow. We started off at the M Resort before being shuttled down to Boulder City to catch our helicopter to the Grand Canyon ridge where the company has everything set up and waiting to perform the ceremony overlooking the Colorado River at sunset. It was awesome seeing the Canyon for the first time from this amazing point of view. We headed back into town after landing with a quick photo tour around the Las Vegas Strip and downtown.
I love small weddings… like a lot… and I think Las Vegas is the perfect place for them. Taj and Rémy planned a small wedding here in the United States at the famous Neon Boneyard in downtown Las Vegas and
