Nicole | Las Vegas Model Shoot

Our Engagement Story

Four years ago today, I proposed to my wife Luisa. I guess you could say this is our first REAL proposal anniversary since February 29th only comes around every 4 years. Trust me, I didn’t plan it out that way. It just sorta happened. Luisa and I, like many couples, had talked much about marriage…

Melissa Snyder - Hi Nate. I am trying to figure out how to schedule a time for a photo session. My parents are Les and Sandy Quinn who are in your ward. My father was wanting to set up a time when we could get you to take some family pictures this spring. If you could, would you either email me back or call me. My number is 921-5164.
Thanks so much. We love looking at your photography site.
