Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Photography
What are the best times for outdoor wedding photos in Las Vegas?
The “golden hour” (just before sunset) provides the most flattering natural light. For summer weddings, early morning sessions are recommended to avoid heat. Winter sessions can be scheduled throughout the day due to milder temperatures.
Can we take photos at multiple Strip locations?
Yes! Our photographers know the best spots and timing for Strip photography. We can create custom routes based on your preferred locations, typically covering 3-4 major landmarks within a 2-hour session.
How long should we schedule for photos?
We recommend at least 1-2 hours for wedding party and couple photos, plus additional time for specific locations or themed shots. A typical timeline: 30 minutes for family photos, 45 minutes for wedding party, and 45 minutes for couple portraits.
Are permits needed for Strip photography?
Some locations require permits, which our planning team can arrange. All permits are included in our photo packages. Popular spots like the Welcome Sign and Fremont Street are public spaces requiring no special permission.
What should we bring to our photo session?
Comfortable shoes for walking, touch-up makeup, and any props or special items for themed shots. Don’t forget water for outdoor sessions, and consider bringing a portable fan during summer months.
Can we include outfit changes?
Yes! Many couples include both traditional and themed outfits. Just let us know in advance to plan adequate time. We recommend allowing 15-20 minutes per outfit change.
What happens if it rains on our photo day?
Las Vegas averages only 27 rainy days per year, but we always have backup indoor locations ready. The Venetian, Caesars Palace, and other resorts offer beautiful indoor photo opportunities.
Do you provide transportation between photo locations?
Yes, transportation is included in our multi-location photo packages. Our air-conditioned vehicles ensure comfort between spots, especially during summer months.
Can we do both daytime and nighttime photos?
Absolutely! Many couples choose split sessions to capture both natural daylight photos and the iconic Vegas neon at night. We can arrange your timeline to accommodate both.
What are the most popular Strip photo locations?
The Welcome to Las Vegas Sign, Bellagio Fountains, Paris Hotel Eiffel Tower, and Fremont Street are top choices. Each location offers unique backdrops and lighting opportunities.
How do you handle large wedding parties?
We’re experienced with groups of all sizes. For large parties (10+ people), we recommend additional time and may assign multiple photographers to ensure comprehensive coverage.
Can we recreate specific photos we’ve seen online?
Yes! Share your inspiration photos with us before the session. Our photographers can recreate specific shots while adding their own creative touches to make them unique to you.
What about seasonal photo opportunities?
Las Vegas offers unique seasonal backgrounds, from spring flowers at the Bellagio Conservatory to winter holiday decorations throughout the Strip. We can recommend the best locations based on your wedding date.
Do you provide photo editing services?
Yes, all photos undergo professional editing for color, lighting, and basic retouching. Additional retouching services are available upon request.
How soon after the session will we receive our photos?
Digital proofs are typically available within 48-72 hours. Final edited photos are delivered within 2-3 weeks, with rush services available for an additional fee.
