In Front of the Lens | Our Engagement Images
Las Vegas, Nevada
When we were in Las Vegas last spring we were able to meet up with our friend and photographer, Jeff Newsom for some portraits. I’m not going to lie, we had been arguing all morning and I was in no mood to have my pictures taken. It was a good reminder to me of what some of our couples might be feeling leading up to their sessions with us. However, Jeff took us on a mini adventure around the streets of the Las Vegas strip and with Cameron Ingalls hanging out along with us all, the afternoon went from frustrating to phenomenal in just a few short minutes.
It’s such a learning experience to have your photographs taken by another artist. To see how they move, and act. To hear what they say. And to see how they translate you into an image is mesmerizing. Jeff is a fantastic photographer, if you’ve ever seen any of his stuff you know how talented his is. And yet, to be around him is like hanging out with an old friend. He’s genuine and humble and funny. It was truly an honor to be photographed by him and we’re so excited to have him and his lovely wife with us in Italy this October.
I realized that we hadn’t ever officially shared our pictures with all of you, and since a few people recently asked me about it I thought this would be a good time. Here’s us… in front of the lens.
Becka, I want to look like you when I grow up! ;) Seriously… These are stunning, you guys. I can’t wait to see the *wedding* photos!!
@Kathy These ones are by our friend, Jeff Newsom http://www.jeffnewsom.com :)
What beautiful images . . . you both have such the talent . . . awesome!
I love how he managed to isolate you in a city like Vegas, it looks as if you were the only two people in the world. My favorites are the ones with the two of you sitting on the median and the color one with you smiling and Nate looking at the camera, just too cute.
Yellow’s my favorite! You two look totally in a moment even though you’re in the middle of a Las Vegas street with cars zooming by!! =)
@Dyan Holy crap! CONGRATS! :)
