Every day we run across something in our lives that can be used as inspiration in our photography.  I just found this one and had to share it.  We don’t shoot with Olympus equipment but I think that this video rocks.  It’s super artistic… too bad they had to go through so much paper

On our recent trip to Las Vegas we had the pleasure of shooting Autumn and Arian at Red Rock Canyon a few minutes outside of town.  We had such a great time working with them… check out the smiles!

This video looks great in full screen – click on the icon in the lower right corner of the video.

You’re going to hear us talking about Las Vegas for a while.  Our 13 day trek out there brought many amazing adventures our way and we took lots of photographs (we’re photographers, give us a break).  We were lucky enough to have a couple of days at the beginning of our trip to do some scouting of good locations for photo shoots once we met up with some of our clients later that weekend.

One of our favorite places was Red Rock Canyon because it is so close to the strip (about 15-20 minutes from your hotel to the park) and because it’s only $5.  You’ll spend that much money pretty freakin quick in Vegas, so take the trip out to the canyon to enjoy a trip around the scenic loop.

It takes about 45 minutes to drive the scenic loop assuming that you don’t much stopping.  There are lots of great places along the loop for you to stop, hike, bike, climb, or picnic so you’ll want to leave enough time to go out and have some fun.

Here’s a video that gives you a very quick idea of what it’s like.

Get ready for this one… it’s PG-13 for mild graphic use of a feather boa.

Freaky Best Man Speech – These bloopers are hilarious

Two important lessons can be learned from this video:

1. While having a pool as the backdrop for your wedding, it may be a hazzard.
2. The best man can ruin your wedding in ways that you may never have imagined.
