About this vendor
Experience matters — especially on your wedding day.
I’m Jab, the lead photographer behind Life In Vegas Photography. For nearly two decades, I’ve been lucky enough to photograph hundreds of couples from all over the world right here in Las Vegas. I focus on natural, story-driven wedding photography for couples who want beautiful images and a smooth, stress-free experience.
Before running my own studio, I worked closely with photography teams at some of Vegas’ most well-known wedding chapels, including Little White Chapel and Chapel of the Flowers. Since 2007, I’ve photographed everything from simple elopements to large, elegant weddings, which means I know how to read a room, stay calm under pressure, and capture moments as they naturally unfold.
My style is documentary at heart, with a clean, cinematic feel. I’m always looking for real emotion, great light, and timeless moments you’ll still love years from now. For larger weddings, I offer experienced second photographers and a trusted team to make sure nothing gets missed.
Along with wedding photography, we also offer same-day photo slideshows and premium photo booth experiences, including our signature photo booth bus, for couples who want something fun, stylish, and memorable for their reception.
On the wedding day, I bring a calm, confident presence and take care of the details so you can stay present and enjoy the moment. If you’re getting married at one of Las Vegas’ iconic chapels, resorts, or private venues, I’m always happy to help guide you through the process and make things easy.
Take a look through our work and reach out anytime — I’d love to hear about your plans.

Usually we are not the people to review but Jab really deserves it. From the first contact on "the knot" he appeared very professional but also very friendly and supportive. He alw...
ays responded quickly and answered all our questions. He even gave us some useful advice for flowers and makeup. From the first time we met him in person he made us feel comfortable. The shooting was fun and we had a great time. The pictures came out perfect and were delivered after a very short time. The price compared to the outcome is absolutely justified. If we didn't have a photographer for the party here in Germany, we would book him again.😉👍🏻
We totally recommend booking Jab.
Jab deserves more than five stars! We hired him for our October 2025 wedding, and he was truly the best person for the job. With more than a decade worth of photography experience,...
Jab brought a wealth of knowledge—not just about photography, but about weddings themselves. He graced us with his knowledge as we were planning our wedding as a bonus! He quickly adapted to every timeline shift and always had a backup plan ready, making everything run smoothly. He’s incredibly flexible and a true professional.
We fell in love with his portfolio and felt honored to be the subjects of his camera, capturing our love story and special day. Working with him was truly a privilege. Jab exceeded our expectations in every way. We never had to worry for a moment, as he handled everything impeccably and made the experience truly unforgettable. We are forever grateful for his dedication and talent. Thank you SO much Jab and more power to you!

We are so happy that we had Jab with us on our wedding day. He led us to all of these great spots throughout Downtown Vegas to capture photos that we never would have found on our ...
own. He was also very familiar with our ceremony & reception venues which was so helpful as he knew exactly where photos would look best. We could not be more thrilled with how our pictures turned out!! They really are perfect. Thank you SO much, Jab!
I highly recommend Life in Vegas Photography! Jab was great to work with. We recently got married in May and Life in Vegas Photography was our top choice for photographers. Jab was...

nute with the flowers, brought us to wonderful locations showing us the Las Vegas that he obviously loves so much and that we would not discover otherwise, making it an unforgettable film-star experience. And then the pictures - they tell the story, they elevate the story, they make this special day so easy to share with others! Thank you very much to Jab, and his sources of inspiration - Kathrina and Sebastian!
Probably the best vendor we booked for our wedding. He also did photos for the Bridal Shower and a romantic photoshoot out in Red Rock after the wedding. He always was communicativ...
e with us and though we felt maybe some things were missed during the wedding he totally understood and took time out of his day to do another photoshoot with us after the wedding which really means a lot and looking back we're so happy we ended up doing that anyway.
The photos we do have are incredible and already have one framed in a large display. He truly captured how the day/ night unfolded and in truth I don't think we could have found a better photographer.
I can absolutely see us booking him again for other events and absolutely recommend him to any of our friends.
Would highly recommend A+

sy. He is a true professional and takes a geniune, vested interest in his clients. Especially during our shoot -- everything felt natural and fun, and when we promptly received the photos after, we were blown away with how everything turned out. He has a clear vision and will amaze anyone fortunate enough to be in front of his camera. We greatly appreciate you, Jab! Thank you for making such an important milestone in our marriage journey feel so special!!

ictures back the next day.
We had about 50 guests at our wedding and had a reception to follow. He captured the day perfectly. I would highly recommend Jab to anyone who wants a very professional, fun, and attentive photographer in Vegas.

ly highly recommend them! Hire them! Get the whole package! EVERYONE I have spoken to post wedding has RAVED about the photo love bus. Jab is a true professional and so knowledgeable about all things wedding industry. He gave us so much advice, support, and encouraging. 11/10 recommendations!!!
Jab is a wonderful photographer, in every aspect of his work. From the initial intake and planning sessions, to the actual photoshoot, to the receipt of the final photographs, he ...
made every part of the wedding process relaxed, stress-free, and enjoyable. I appreciated in particular how responsive he was to our requests and questions. And, we could not have received better photographs. Highly, highly recommend.
Jab was even better than advertised! We found him on The Knot and loved his photography, but what we didn't know was that he got the exact chill vibe we were going for. We had a sm...
all wedding/elopement, and he put all of us at ease and had some great suggestions for photo opportunities since we were from out of town while making sure to incorporate the areas we wanted. It was well worth the price, and we couldn't be happier with our decision!

What a great night! Every moment was captured by Life in Vegas Photography. Jab was the best! We did not have a wedding planner but it felt like we did because Jab helped quarterba...
ck the whole night. They weren’t on time, they were early! We saw photos taken from our guests’ cameras and when we got our photos back from Life In Vegas, they were amazingly better and seemed like the photos were taken from a different party! Our guests could not stop talking about the yellow Volkswagen bus Photo Booth they had. Another awesome feature was the voice recordings our guests recorded on a phone outside of the bus. They put together a video with all the photos taken inside the photo booth with music and the voice recordings from that night. It was amazing! I was most impressed on how Jab handled our HUGE group photo. I don’t know how he managed to get it done so fast and effortless as it’s hard to get THAT many people to pay attention for that one perfect shot! Overall, we couldn’t have asked for anything more as Jab and his crew went above and beyond what we could’ve imagined. Friendly, professional and darn good at what they do. Book them now!!!! =)
Jab and his team are the best!!! We had such a wonderful experience with him shooting our 150 person wedding. Since we came from out of town, he made everything super easy and per...
sonable and was always super on top of communicating. We loved our engagement photos and our wedding photos turned out to be outstanding. Would definitely recommend Jab and his crew to anyone looking for a professional, friendly photographer!!!

oyed our time with him. He was very passionate in every photo he took. At some points, it felt like we were getting our photo taken by a friend we’ve known for years. Jab is so professional and had great ideas for the scenery and poses. He was the best.
First and foremost, five stars isn't nearly a high enough rating to give Jab! He made everything so effortless and was incredibly helpful during the planning process. We don't have...
the words to truly express our gratitude and how much we are in love with our photos. We haven't been able to stop looking at them, it's really become an obsession :)
Meeting you for the first time in person put whatever miniscule worries I had on the back burner. You yourself are just so warm, joyful and full of light, which was no different than what I felt when we spoke on the phone. We can be a bit awkward when it comes to having our photos taken but we knew that we had nothing to worry about and you really put the two of us at ease. You made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. You are an absolute joy to work with and we could not have envisioned our wedding to have been captured as perfectly as it was. You were so kind to our guests, it was really great seeing you interact and converse with everyone. Lucas still talk about the popcorn magic trick!
Our sincerest thanks for these beautiful photos, that undoubtedly captured one of the most heartfelt and happiest days of our lives. We have no idea how we will pick our favorites for an album, though we definitely have one or two that we cannot wait to have framed! There is so much of the day that is a blur and it is lovely to relive the day through your photos. You managed to get fantastic shots from everywhere and your attention to detail is outstanding! Spending time looking over these photos together brought us back to all the little moments we loved about the day that thank you simply doesn't feel like enough. We hope to work with you again in the future and wish you every happiness!
With all our gratitude,
Christina and Danny
We chose Jab for our intimate ceremony in Valley of Fire State Park. As Atlanta natives who had never been to Vegas previously, we relied heavily on Jab’s expertise, and he did not...
disappoint. Jab provided so much information, including contact information for other vendors we needed, and truly played such an influential role in the success of our wedding day. Jab is friendly, knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, affordable, and all around the best. He perfectly captured the personality of my camera-shy husband, and provided SO many amazing photographs that we will cherish, share, and reminisce over for the rest of our lives. I promise that you will not regret hiring Jab. He is simply the best!!! I cannot recommend him enough.
YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST CHOOSE JAB!!! I cannot sing enough praises of him! He is incredibly talented with years of experience and loves what he does. A collaborative professional that...
truly takes the time to get to know you and what you're looking for. If you have no idea, he's got ideas to pitch. If you want something specific, he'll work with you and offer suggestions too (based both on what he's found works and building on your ideas). Very knowledgeable about the "technical" side of photography.
He is incredibly easy to work with - follows up quickly, organized, tons of ideas, flexible, gives great/understandable direction when posing, and generally just a really great human being. We had SO MUCH FUN on our engagement shoot, laughing and talking with him as we walked to our different shot locations along the strip. I also found his packages to be incredibly affordable compared to some of the other top rated photographers, but for the quality of his work and how great he is to work with - he's definitely a STEAL!
We booked him for both our engagement photos and wedding (next year) and just got our photos - they are STUNNING! He knows all the best locations on the strip to get truly unique, gorgeous shots. He's creative and has an eye for one-of-a-kind "artsy" shots you're not likely to find with someone else, but also nails the "classic" engagement shots and truly capturing the right moments and the personality of the couple.
I've been dying to write a glowing review with him ever since our shoot, but wanted to get our photos first, so I could speak to it ;) Incredibly excited for him to shoot our wedding - I am SO thankful we found and chose him!
Jab is absolutely an amazing photographer!
Next to that he is a very fun and friendly person. He makes you feel comfortable from the very start so the whole shoot feels like a par...
ty!!
I’m so happy we had a 4 hour photoshoot with Jab after our wedding reception cause it really was the best part of our day!
Lisa and Mario
We booked Jab for our 10th anniversary vow renewal in Vegas and couldn't be happier with our experience! We had our vows renewed at A Little White Wedding Chapel (where he has actu...
ally worked in the past!). He did an amazing job capturing the ceremony as well as photos outside the chapel, and then he took us around the Strip in his car for a 3-hour photoshoot afterward (as well as picked us up from our hotel and took us to the chapel in the first place!). Beautiful pictures, fast turnaround, fun and easy to work with, made transportation a breeze, worth every penny! Hopefully he'll still be around for our 20th. ;-)
We could not have made a better decision in finding a photographer for our wedding. Jab made me laugh from the first communication and I knew we were set. Like many others getting ...
married in Vegas, we were traveling for our day and Jab helped in answering any questions we had, far and beyond traditional photo questions. He was professional but fun and energetic the entire day and felt like part of our family/wedding party.
While planning, I felt like he engaged us in the process but helped us in making location decisions since we hadn't been to LV in a few years. We were also thoroughly impressed that he scouted one of the locations I wanted some pics at in advance to make sure we could get the best shots.
Booking with Jab may have been the best decision we made for our wedding. Our photos came out phenomenally and we would highly recommend!!
I cannot say thank you enough to Jab for the amazing work he has done in capturing our special day! He was literally the highlight of our day - besides getting married ;) We got to...
ride around in his old school Volkswagen bus & it was THE coolest thing ever! He is so easy going & made the experience so much fun. He totally went above & beyond for us & exceeded all my expectations! 10/10 recommend - you will not regret it!
We loved having Jab with us on our big day! With all the changes to our wedding because of COVID-19 Jab was the one constant that was there for us since day one of planning. On the...
day of he helped make sure that everyone was where they needed for photos. He had the perfect spot picked out for our first look and when our initial spot didn’t work out he worked so quickly on the fly and found the best replacement. He was able to capture the obvious posed family photos, amazing bride and groom portraits, and the best candid photos. At the end of our dinner I was so pooped and couldn’t continue to take some final photos we had discussed-Jab offered to take the photos of us the next time we were in town. Overall Jab was great and we enjoyed having him with us all day! Do yourself a favor and hire him for your big day! Looking forward to using Jab for family photos in the future!
Jab from Life in Vegas is fantastic!
The work is impeccable, the photos are high quality and the style is very modern (our prewedding photos work perfect both as formal wedding co...
ntent AND Instagram posts).
Jab is also very friendly, easy to work with, and most importantly, knowledgeable.
I highly recommend Life in Vegas Photogrpahy.
Booking Jab was single handedly the best decision we made. He was friendly, knowledgeable, experienced and most importantly: he has The Love Bus!
I contacted him after using The ...
Knot to scout photographers for our engagement photos and wedding. I was impressed with how lively and vibrant his shots were. Everyone in them looked like they were having fun and enjoying themselves in the moment. Something that I wanted our photographer to capture for us on our big day.
We reached out and were able to secure Jab to do our engagement photoshoot, our wedding and to provide his Love Bus as our photobooth for our wedding. Our engagement photos were beautiful. They captured a scenic, lesser known Las Vegas backdrop without looking too toursity. It's easy to make my other half look amazing but even I like how I turned out in the photos.
Having created a relationship with him the wedding day photos came out just as great. We were relaxed around him and he took some very heartfelt photos of us before, and during, the wedding. Everyone who attended had tons of fun using his retrofitted Volkswagen Kombi turned photobooth. It added that kitschy flair that made our wedding unique. I mean why go for a traditional booth when you can be unique? Do yourself a favor. Reach out to Jab. He is passionate about what he does and it shows in his work. You won't regret it!
We had the opportunity to work with Jab twice. The first time for our engagement photos in the Las Vegas Strip and downtown Vegas. He was so knowledgeable and knew how to get us mo...
re comfortable in front of the camera. We enjoyed his photos so much we knew for our wedding we needed to see if Jab was available for the post ceremony and dinner photos. Our wedding photos be took could not be more creative and beautiful. We honestly can’t pick a favorite we love them all! He is friendly, down to earth all while being professional. We told him our ideas and vision for both photo shoots and he gave his professional opinion and helped us create pictures that we will cherish forever! He is able to capture who we are and our personalities in his photos. He is amazing and so talented! I would highly recommend him!
Jab and his team were absolutely wonderful to work with. From a perfect engagement shoot to regular check ins as we got closer to the big day, I honestly felt like Jab was a close ...
friend and not just a vendor. We loved the shots from the wedding and now have tons of memories that will last a lifetime. If you're looking for a super personable, professional but still fun photography team, I can't recommend Life In Vegas enough.
From the beginning Jab made us feel super comfortable and even helped us with everything! Soo professional and amazing! Cant wait to see the finished products! Totally knew his way...
around town!
Can’t say how much we loved Jab and his crew for our wedding! It was over the top! He knows how to keep everyone calm and make sure to capture every moment. He was there from the s...
tart to the finish. Can’t wait to get our photos back! Thank you for everything!!! Jab is the best!!
Jab was AMAZING and so was his team. He was so friendly and professional. His pictures were amazing and the whole crowd loved him. Jab made my wedding day amazing and he was on top...
of all the little details for me. His Photo Booth team was great and we couldn't have asked for a better photographer
Easy going, super friendly, good to work with. I had never been to Vegas but Jab gave me good suggestions wether it was photography or just a good place to hang out. He made our da...
y even that more special and fun! thank you for being a part of our big day
Jab was fantastic! We booked him for a one-hour shoot before our wedding and it was the best decision I ever made! The pictures came out beautiful! Throughout the whole experience,...
he never made us feel rushed or stressed, he knew exactly how to pose us and where to go for the best shots, and there is not a single person in the background of any of our pictures! Such a good rate too compared to the photo prices from the chapels around.
100% would recommend!
Jab is the best in the biz. Seriously. He shot both our engagement and wedding photos and I couldn't be happier! My (then) fiance and I had no idea how to act in front of a camera,...
but Jab made us comfortable, cracked jokes and directed us on how to pose and I just LOOOOOOVEE our engagement photos. It turned out way better than I could have imagined! We used it for our wedding invitations and we got a ton of compliments on it. The day of our wedding, I was so nervous, but Jab and Alyssa came with such great energy and gave such positive vibes, it was infectious. They made me and my entourage feel comfortable. They also did a beautiful slideshow during our reception which included pictures from the my prep time and the ceremony. It was a tearjerker. Our memories from the wedding will become more precious as the years go by and I'm so glad Jab was the one who captured it for us. Our experience was amazing. I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Thank you Jab!
I don’t even know where to start! My wedding day would not have been as perfect as it was if it wasn’t for Jab. He was unbelievably friendly, outgoing, and knew just how to get the...
perfect shots! He made all of us feel so comfortable and was a huge help in getting everyone transferred to where we needed to go! The pictures that I have seen so far are an absolute dream! You will not go wrong with Jab! My day was perfect with his help and with my gorgeous pictures I will be able to look back on this day for years!! Thank you Jab!
Jab was so professional. From the second he met us on the day he explained what his thought process was and we just loved every second. He captured every special moment from “that ...
first glance” to our giggling moments and everything in between. It didn’t take long for Jab to get what we were about and he had such great ideas and was very knowledgeable about the area and where would be good to go. It actually felt like we were out with an old friend, we were so comfortable and we had so much trust in him. And the photos! I honestly cannot describe how beautiful they all are. They really captured the emotions of the day, they show our love for each other and paint a wonderful picture of how much fun we had. Genuinely, I had very high expectations and hopes and Jab has surpassed every single one. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you so much.
Working with Jab from Life in Vegas was amazing from start to finish. Every time I reached out to Jab he responded right away- we were coming from out of state for our shoot and he...
was able to provide us with tons of great suggestions and even transportation to the various spots of our session!
Jab was on time, professional and most importantly personable- by the end of the day he felt like an old friend. We have never had photo shoot before and he made us feel comfortable and we were able to have fun with it. I'm so happy with the outcome of our photos and the quick delivery as well. I honestly couldn't recommend him enough.
