Location Inspiration.
Thank you for checking out my locations page. I am a Las Vegas based portrait photographer, below are some of my favorite spots across the valley, however this page is just inspiration. If you have a location in mind that you do not see here I would love to shoot there with you! So please do not hesitate to contact me with questions and special requests.
In Studio
Fine Art Studio Photography is my Happy Place. Stunning and timeless. My studio style is designed to highlight my subject and inspire emotion through connection.
The Orchard
Gilcrease Orchard quickly rose to the top of my favorites list, with rows of fruit trees, pumpkin patch in the fall and rows of sunflowers in the summer!
The Mountains
The mountains are a great place to escape the heat in the summer and find snow in the winter. With sunsets nearly 2 hours earlier than in town and breathtaking views, this is one of my favorite portrait locations.
The Desert
With gorgeous deep earth tones, unique to the west surroundings and rich pastel mountain backdrop, what is not to love.
Calico Basin
Calico Basin is easy access outside the red rock loop, with a bridge and beautiful desert backdrop. With muted yellows and browns in the fall and winter and greens in the summer time.
Red Rock
A little outside the red rock loop and a 10 minute walk this beautiful, less traveled and unique location is a great place to shoot.
The Rose Garden
A quaint small rose garden located on the southwest side of the Las Vegas Valley.
Floyd Lamb State Park
The park is a great fall location with easy access and beautiful autumn leaves.
Downtown Arts District
Lots of different Graffiti Walls in the Arts District Downtown. This is a fun area to just walk around and shoot at whichever walls call your name!
The Dry Lake Beds
Just a little bit outside of town, but really a fun and free session! These are gorgeous, clean, clutter free images. Keep in mind that these open locations can have a little bit more breeze then in town.
Norman Rockwell
This is a little boutique style shopping center located in the NW side of town. It has really cute streets, a little park with gorgeous flowers in the late spring early summer, lots of different colors and textures on the buildings. This is a fun place to shoot with lots of variety and styles. Great way to get a chic city look without all the people!
A Park I Know
This little spot I found that has a quaint alley way of park that has beautiful fall trees nestled in the middle of SW Vegas.
The Lake
If you are looking to add some water into your shoot and have a easy, breezy, fun feel to your portraits the lake could be the perfect option for you. It is inside Lake Mead with a $25 fee for entrance.
Nelson's Landing
If you haven't been there before it is a really cool place to check out. Lots of nostalgia, cool barns and old buildings, a few crashed planes, some old cars and an old bus. We use to travel and photograph ghost towns before we had kids, this is one of our favorites. This is about a 45 minute drive outside of town with the sun setting about 1 hour earlier here as it is tucked in between a mountain range.
You Name It!
There are a lot of other locations out there including plenty that I have not shot at and would love too! If you have a specific look in mind let me know and I can find the best place to match your style!
