JCS Photo-Video Productions of Las Vegas, creates a creative and professional wedding experience in using a variety of mobile battery operating equipment.  Producing high quality photography and videos during a COVID pandemic can be challenging. Kerry and Arleigh wanted to create an outdoor wedding while practicing safety from COVID pandemic. The Limo arrived with the couple wearing masks. Jack ensures safety with all of his clients using distancing and cleaning protocols between all of his professional shoots. Kerry and Arleigh felt safe with the practice conducted from Limo, minister and photographer. 

After 30 years of experience of the wedding media business, Jack Vosburgh, of JCS Photo-Video Productions creates stylistic productions. Using movement, composition, lighting, and creative backgrounds these timeless images please his customers. Customers of all diversities have used Jack's services in special outdoor settings, wedding chapels, on the Las Vegas Strip, Fremont Street, and the Neon Museum. After two hours in Red Rock on a perfect afternoon. Kerry and Arleigh wanted an outdoor wedding in nature that showed the majestic red rocks of Ash Springs in Calico Basin and Re RockCanyon State Park. Working professionally for years the couples love kindled and grew over several years. Email, they said helped the flames of love ignite into something more. Text is so impersonal and short Kerry explained. He would craft long emails that would describe his daily feelings. This creative writing process would describe many parts of his personality he described. This aided in his personal phone calls as the creative process of writing emails helped him articulate more clearly his devotion to Arleigh. 

Jack used his special battery operated Interfit Honey Badger LED Kit lighting with off camera strobe and off camera flash Profoto A1C to create even well lit photos in the afternoon sun. Photos during the day can produce deep shadows that are unflattering. "Using these battery operated strobes with diffused flash fill lighting created flattering images to display the bride at her best," said Jack. High quality photography needs to be well lit, correctly balanced and well composed. This can be a challenge during COVID so choosing a profession well seasoned photographer in the industry is a must. Wearing masks are done immediately at meeting of the wedding couple and physical distancing is maintained during the entire time. Masks are used and encouraged and locations were set in Red Rock from others in order to produce stunning visual images of the Scott's Special day. 

I Just looked at your photos and I literally had tears. Thank you so much Jack," wedding couple Kerry and Arleigh said.

The weather in Las Vegas has been nice with seasonal temperatures a little higher that usual. Afternoon lighting has been clear with a slight haze from California and Oregon wildfires. This has been acceptable air quality despite the conditions. Adding that and masks have still been acceptable to breathe easily and maintain the State's rules to keep others safe. Taking photos with face masks are not the ideal situation for wedding photos, but couples like the Scott's still chose not to put their wedding plans on hold. According to the National Weather Service, Las Vegas valley had received very little rain for over 120 days. In addition, there were over 49 days of temperatures over 100 degrees.
