Liza & Rachel – too cute!!
Congratulations Tiffany & Donnie!
Tiffany & Donnie held their beautiful wedding & reception at Valle Vista! They had a “Lucky in Love” themed wedding and it was so neat…the favors, programs, cake table, card box – everything was perfectly planned to convey their theme. 🙂 The sunset was gorgeous that evening and we were able to get some amazing gazebo/water shots with them.
Tiffany was a model bride to say the least…as I was shooting, I noticed how she would change her look and poses like a pro and I was floored. Apparently, her grandfather is a photographer and used to have her model for him when she was younger, I can see why! 🙂 She is so beautiful and they were a great couple to work with.
Last day of Vegas…

After his presentation, I finished the last room of the tradeshow and found these awesome linen covered flushmount style albums that I'd like to start carrying this year. Their sample book has the couple's names spelled out in the beads on the outer cover and then the inside is like the usual hard board flushmount style albums but this one was designed with their engagement pictures inside! What a fabulous idea!! The couple could display the book in their home, bring it with them to their pre-wedding festivities, use it to display on the gift table at the reception, use it as a guest book, the possibilities were endless.

Then I went to Joe Buissink's class that afternoon and he was simply amazing…he shoots celebrity and high-end weddings on a regular basis (like Jessica Simpson's wedding) and he's the most humble photographer you'll ever meet, I loved it. In between classes, I took time to walk the tradeshow floor some more where our wedding photographer, Gary Fong (pictured above) was doing a live demo of his new Whaletail flash diffuser accessory. Gary is such an amazing photographer and businessman, he probably has one of the largest followings of anyone out there. 🙂 Needless to say, I bought the Whaletail at his debut and I'm most excited about the colored gels it comes with…I think it will take our modeling shoots to a whole new level.
Here are some fun shots from images that Joe showed everyone at his seminar, he photographed this dog in various costumes for fun and his images are now being turned into a huge product line, like greeting cards, calendars, etc. that will be released in the U.S. later this year!
