Maternity Portraits in the Desert {Las Vegas Maternity Photographer}

Name: Jamie Rubeis Photography
Price range: $$$

Living in Las Vegas, it is sometimes easy to get discouraged with not having access to beautiful, rolling green hills and overgrown trees. However, I am learning to embrace our desert landscape even more. I recently had the opportunity to get together with a group of awesome photographers who were here for WPPI and we put together this amazing little shootout. Not only did I get to photograph a gorgeous Senior & Couple, but these maternity portraits in the desert made me squeal with delight! Everything came together so perfectly, from the Hair & Makeup by Paper Bag Beauty, to the dress by Sew Trendy Accessories and who can forget about the horses!!! Its not everyday you get to use such majestic animal in your portraits. Here are just a few of my favorites from this gorgeous mama to be. I hope you enjoy!

Las Vegas Maternity Photographer specializing in artistic, natural & engaging maternity portraits.

Serving Las Vegas, N. Las Vegas, Henderson, Boulder City & the surrounding areas.

Sharing more from this gorgeous session. We rescheduled this session twice due to winds. Dad ended up forgetting all his clothes he planned for this session and yet with a little help from Photoshop, we still made some serious magic. I will also forever love this location for one of the only lush green meadows in Las Vegas with gorgeous light. It is a hidden gem.

Intimate moments and details get me every time. These days are fleeting.

Let’s talk Lenses! I, personally, shoot with two. A Sigma 35mm Art and a Sigma 105mm Art. I will admit… I am very partial to my 105mm. It’s probably on my camera about 75% of the time. However, there are times when my 35 is just necessary for a different vibe. Especially in backlight situations where the sun is still relatively high and strong or when I have small kids that just need me to be closer to get those interactions.

However, in this situation, the 35mm gives me the ability to get the sun behind my subject creating that perfect golden glow. But I also love the hazy feel of the same scenario with my 105mm with that creamy depth of field. So I always have to swap between them for the same scene but two very different looks.

If you are a photographer, what is your go to lens? Do you have a favorite?

First session on Mt. Charleston last night and I was SOOOOO happy to be back. Mountain sessions are by far my favorite and it was beautiful weather with a little snowy background.

This is one view that will forever hold a piece of my heart.

At some point I will actually share some of these sessions instead of just one or two images when my plate is not so full.

I had the most STUNNING maternity session last night at one of my favorite places. We actually rescheduled this maternity session twice due to winds and changed locations last minute but it ended up being totally worth it!!!

Every scene was like a painting with this gorgeous mama. It’s that kind of session that makes you so excited to edit it. I can’t wait to dig into this session and share more of it.

Oh man! I love maternity sessions so much. This beautiful mama requested my white dress from my client closet which ended up being absolutely stunning with the backlight (more to come from that very soon).

However, I brought this one as well from @reclamationdesigncompany on a whim for a couple of images at the end.I love how this one really accentuates the curves with the shear material and this plum color paired with her husband’s teal shirt works so perfectly in the blue hour light.

Wardrobe is everything! When you pick the right colors with the right time of day and the right location, it all matters.

Living in Las Vegas, I often see a lot of out of town clients. This means they, of course, want to shoot in our most iconic locations. So when I get a request to shoot at Red Rock from an out of town client, I always end it with this epic view of.... The Red Rocks!!! How could I not? Also, can we appreciate how their wardrobe choices are perfect for this shot?

Heading back out this evening to this same spot for a Maternity Session. Crossing my fingers these stupid winds calm down.

I can finally share this session!! It took me a little bit longer than normal to edit because we had to shoot in windy weather due to the fact that my clients were from out of town. We had a little bit of crazy hair that needed some taming.

We were both nervous it was going to be chaotic and freezing. While it was cold, we made sure we went when the sun was for sure out so we could stay warm and managed to finish up just as the sun set behind the mountain. It actually turned out perfect and the love and joy from this session is immense!
