A Tale of Two Locations | Las Vegas Elopement Portraits

When we’re choosing a portrait session location, we go beyond what “looks good.” We’re bringing fantasies to life here, people! It is absolutely a big part of the process to consider the aesthetics of a location; who doesn’t scroll Pinterest for hours looking at “Las Vegas desert pictures” or “photoshoot on the Vegas Strip” when you should definitely be sleeping? But trust me, choosing a good location goes way beyond that.

Finding the right location for your Las Vegas elopement portraits comes down to what feels most like you. A session is obviously going to capture what you look like in the moment, but ultimately, we’re trying to capture who you are and how you feel. You’re celebrating a huge milestone in your life! I want these pictures to transport you back to the exact moment and remind you of the happiness you felt in every second.

A location in the great outdoors embodies a sense of freedom and spirit. The feeling of openness and serenity invites you to take a deep breath and smile as you reminisce on the very beginning of your lives as a married couple. We can go on a grand adventure that mirrors what the next stage in your life will feel like!

When we hit the Strip or Fremont Street (or both), we fully embrace the energy of the city, bringing a young urban vibe to your portraits that lights up every image. The neon lights and constant flow of people from everywhere around the world remind you that you’re a part of something greater than yourself.

We are so lucky so have the best of almost every world in the Las Vegas area: city streets, desert beauty, and forest hideaways. And if you can’t choose? Do them all! If you book a good chunk of time with me, we can go to as many locations as we can manage. Send me a message to learn more about how to choose the right location(s) for your portrait session!
