So as I am editing wedding photos today I ran across my folder of images from Las Vegas. I can’t believe I haven’t posted them so I figured I better do it real quick. Every year all us crazy photographers head off to sin city to learn some new tricks, check out new gear, compare all the new products from vendors at the annual WPPI convention.  We get to play lots, meet new people and usually grab in a few shoots.  This year I did an awesome shoot put on by the amazing Victor Sizemore. The desert + beautiful bride + amazing styling = one happy Jen.

Here are the awesome vendors that made this shoot possible:

My lovely friend Kristen and I all bundled up. She is one of my partners in crime every year. Can you tell it was sooooo cold and windy?  It was!! Our poor models were such troopers.

Jenny: Love all of them! Wowza!

Heather Purdin: friend...beautiful. What a sweet kiss shot. They look so in love, as always very lovely work.

busy busy busy in the midst of wedding season, but I HAD TO share a quick screenshot of two of the sweetest people. i had the privilege of capturing these two get married last weekend out in the gorge on a perfect summer day. i promise that there will be a full blog post dedicated to these two but I had to share this real quick.  i love them.

Ginette Sundin: love this screen shot! What a beautiful bride! I can't wait to see how you captured them!

i love love and i can’t say that enough. what i love more than love is seeing two people honestly, truly, wholeheartedly in love with each other. it makes us laugh the whole shoot (which we did) and it makes me smile the whole time editing the photos. the bad part is that it also makes it crazy hard to narrow down my favorites.  yeah it was a little out of control even to pick for the blog. i think you’ll see why.  i am so excited to shoot their wedding in a few months!!!
