Photographs are an important part of Las Vegas weddings because they capture some of the most beautiful moments of an important day. Photographers capture both formal, posed shots of the wedding party and guests along with candid shots that take place during the ceremony and reception. This combination of posed and candid shots can help you create a wedding album that you can treasure for yours to come. The following are some of the most common shots to include in your wedding album so that you can capture your memories and share them with others throughout your life.



Engagement Photos

Engagement photos are often taken several months prior to Las Vegas weddings. These photos of the bride and groom are often formal, but they can also be candid shots or casual shots. It's all up to you since they're your photos. These shots are often used in newspapers and other publications to accompany engagement announcements, so having professional photos taken is probably the best idea if you plan on announcing your engagement in a local publication. Be sure to check your newspaper's guidelines for photo submission to be sure you are following their requirements for photo size and other criteria for each submission.

Wedding Party Photos for Las Vegas Weddings

Photos of the wedding party are an important part of any wedding album. These shots are often planned ahead of time and may take place in a special location. Wedding party photos include the bride and groom, best man, bridesmaids, maid (or matron) of honor, ring bearer, flower girl, ushers, and anyone else involved in the wedding party. These photos are often formal and the photographer may carefully plan each shot so that you can choose from the best pictures when the proofs become available.

Ceremony Photos for Las Vegas Weddings

Photos from the wedding ceremony are a great way to commemorate your wedding. Your photographer can snap pictures at special moments like the lighting of unity candles, your first kiss as husband and wife, the wedding party processional, and other special times. Because these will be candid shots, they will be a beautiful reminder of all the special moments during your wedding.

Bride & Groom Photos for Las Vegas Weddings

Some of the traditional wedding shots include photos of the bride and groom at various stages of the wedding. Photos can be taken of the bride getting ready to walk down the aisle, the groom waiting at the altar for the bride to enter, and the happy couple when the ceremony has ended and they are getting ready for the recessional. These photos will make a wonderful addition to your wedding album and will let you share your memories with others for many years to come.

Reception Photos

Las Vegas weddings usually have receptions immediately following the ceremony or later in the evening on the day of the wedding. Your photographer can capture the fun times you share with your guests by taking a number of candid shots of your guests dancing, enjoying dinner, talking with each other, and having a great time. You'll treasure all of these photos every time you open your wedding album.
