Every year thousands of wedding photographers and portrait photographers converge on Las Vegas for the annual WPPI conference and trade show. With the exception of the stale cigarette smoke that lingers for days after you return and the intense burning in my eyes from being hot boxed inside of the casino as I walked to the conference area, I love attending this conference. I am so fortunate to be a part of the photographic community and to be surrounded by amazingly talented people from all around the world. As a community we share ideas, learn from and mentor one another, and help each other out when needed. I have to say that today’s photographic community is vastly different from when I started Innovative Photography 8 years ago and for that I am thankful!
This was the second year I was involved in producing a shoot for other photographers that were visiting the conference. We learned a lot from our shoot last year and applied that knowledge to this years shoot. I am happy to announce that this year our shoot raised nearly $4,000 for charity. I would like to thank my friend Laura Marchbanks who was the head producer of this year’s shoot. I would also like to thank all of the photographers and couples who participated as well as my new friends Sarah and Thomas at the Las Vegas Country Club for hosting this shoot and donating their time and resources! If you are getting married in Vegas you should plan it at the country club.
Venue: Las Vegas Country Club

Here are some wedding images that I captured. This is Chantal in her very BEAUTIFUL Vera Wang gown.
I LOVE this next image! Chantal and Jared were great, it was cold and rainy and they didn’t complain once. These two are definitely in LOVE!
