Digs Studio Blog bio picture

Welcome!

Digs a studio of photography and cinema was established in 2004. The company evolved from a residential studio to what it is today, a full service lifestyle studio. Working with couples just starting their lives together (e-sessions), celebrating a beautiful day (weddings), and creating a family. We hope to capture the lives of our clients and continue the relationship we have built.

We started this blog to keep everyone updated on the happenings of Digs. Check back often and leave a comment if you like. We love to hear from you.

Cheers- Rhiannon, Derek, Michael, Jeniffer and Jason

PS- watch a short film to meet our crew

Chelsea+Colin - Same Day Experience at the JW Marriot

We met Chelsea and Colin this past Friday right before there rehearsal dinner. Visiting our city from Alaska we knew that Chelsea and Colin were hoping for an experience like no other. Chelsea and Colin have been married for a year but since Colin has been in Iraq the last couple of years they never got to celebrate there marriage with there friends and family. It is because of those factors that my team and I thought it would be a nice touch to surprise them with a Same day experience.

To me there is nothing more rewarding then to see the looks on people’s faces when they get to sit back (even if it’s for a few minutes) and just take in there entire day. When Chelsea jumped out of her chair and hugged me I knew that we had really created something special for them. I was so proud to be part of such an important day for them.

Special thanks to Arlene and Stephan from Sound Fusion Entertainment for all there help and energy. You guy’s are awesome.

Also a special thanks to the JW Marriot crew for being so accomidating.

without further ado Chelsea and Colin

Michelle+David - From DragonRidge with love

I got to shoot this wedding the week I returned from my east coast trip. I was so pumped ready for my next wedding after working with such great cinematographers on the east coast.

Michelle and David were so much fun to work with. They did a Bond style entrance so I had to do something really cool for them. Watch the video! It really was that awesome!

Mary - Wow. Great film!

Why I Love What I Do!

I received this email last night and I was so touched by these kind words from Allan and Jen. They were such an amazing couple to work with. Not only now do I know that I have an extremely satisfied couple, but now I know I have just made some really good friends. Thank you two so much! You are the reason I work so hard to produce films that I do: to not just capture the day, but capture the the real you.

Here is her letter there Save the Date and there Same Day Edit!

To Jason, Rhiannon, Derek, and the entire Digs Studio Family:

Allan and I just wanted to say “Thank you” again for the masterpiece of a film you created for our wedding, but as I type those words, they don’t seem enough.

Jason, it really feels like we have known you for years, though in reality it’s only been months. I still don’t know how you did it – how you got our personalities so perfectly after meeting with us only a few times prior to the actual wedding. You were an absolute pleasure to have around, and we both feel as though we’ve found a genuine friend in you. How you flawlessly captured every emotion and detail of our wedding while at the same time being so unobtrusive is something to marvel. Nothing compares with the amazing footage you captured from the most important day in our life together. You love your work, and it shows!

It’s been less than a week since our film was hand-delivered right to our doorstep, and I’ve watched the video several times already – tearing up each time because the film is that beautiful! When we were in the initial stages of the wedding planning process, we were hesitant to devote a piece of what little of a budget we had toward cinematography. In the end we decided to invest, and to say that I am INCREDIBLY GLAD that we did is an understatement. To this day, we are still getting compliments on the wedding teaser, love story, and same day edit that you created for us; and we know it won’t be too long till we get even more as we present the final feature to our family and friends! Thank you Digs Studio, a million times over. As we create our own little family in the near future, expect to see more of us … We’d love to have you capture life’s special moments for us again!

Love,

Allan and Jen

Jeniffer LaRocca - OK Jason and crew, you guys Rock! I've seen this before but I watched it again and it made me cry, again! You guys are amazing and I'm not just saying that because I work with you!

Angelica+Justin

Last year Digs grew and we developed a cinema team of talented people. You have met a few members of the team during the last few months, at weddings and event. In December we gave our team the opportunity to take more ownership in the wedding projects, and let them learn about the editing side. Adam has been working with us since March and has developed a passion for what we do. After discussing this project, I turned the film over to him, let him handle his own edit and boy am I excited I did. I was so glad to see that Adam has a great imagination for storytelling.

Angelica and Justin were married in September at the gorgeous, Four Seasons Hotel on Las Vegas Blvd. Combining families and traditions this wedding showed the personalities of these two very special people. My team and I partied the night away with these two and really got some amazing stuff to show off enjoy! We hope they enjoy this highlight film and look forward to presenting the feature film coming “reel” soon.

Gohar+Dean

I’ve been asked on many occasions why I do what I do. I love telling stories. I love the creativity that it affords me. I love the adrenaline rush of filming live events.

Really though, I do it because of weddings are one of the major life milestones. It’s an event that brings together family and friends, old and new, to celebrate love. Best of all, weddings happen all over the world. Every culture has different practices for this celebration. I love being able to learn about all these different cultures and traditions. Not very many jobs allow you to do this.

Weddings are like being invited into someone’s home. Families are inviting us into their lives and sharing their happiest moments with us. Gohar and Dean’s wedding is an Armenian wedding. For this wedding, I was invited to capture some of their Armenian traditions, something that I haven’t had the privilege to do before.

Gohar and Dean were so much fun to work with. Gohar was so excited for the day. She had choreographed the first dance herself, and it turned out to be incredible.

So this is why I love what I do. I love being the storyteller. I love being able to share these moments with all of you. So to Gohar and Dean, and to all the brides and grooms that allowed me to share their incredible day in 2009, genatz to you all!

Las Vegas Wedding Awards 2009

On Tuesday night Digs Studio was honored with the award of “Best Wedding Photographer”. We would like to send a special thank you to all of our clients and other wedding professionals for trusting our studio with their events. Because of each of you we love our jobs and get to do what we enjoy. xoxo

Lots of love goes out to our entire team at Digs- Jeniffer, Mike, Jason, Sean, Adam, Grady and Asha for making our year exciting and fun. Digs Cinema team was nominated and I know next year they will take the award as we continue to build the team.

I would also like to thank my hubby, Derek for falling in love with the wedding business and continuing to dream about the future in this business. When we met I was managing a bridal salon and he didn’t understand this business of weddings, however after photographing his first wedding he got it.

What a night and I was so excited for a reason to wear my red high heels, to bad they didn’t make the picture. More pictures to come soon!

tini+pedro.b-session

When it comes to having fun, as a photographer, there is not much better than a bridal session, simply  having the ability to control the time of day to shoot and having unlimited time with a couple to create images is exciting.  So off to JW Marriott we headed with Tinni and Pedro.  They are an awesome couple who are still planning their official day, but wanted some fun images to tie them over in the meantime….Enjoy

Wendy+David.E-Session

Rhiannon and I have known Wendy and David dating back to our crazy, irresponsible college days at UNLV.  Wendy and Rhi were sorority sisters, and David is from Oregon, go Ducks in the Rose Bowl, so we all naturally have a lot in common.  Wendy has modeling experience under her belt, so she was a natural in front of the camera and Dave followed her lead for some dynamic images. Wendy and David will be saying their I do’s in Disneyland in May so you can image everyone’s excitement about their day.  We love new locations, and Disneyland what else do you have to say….
