PhotoGraphic Creations bio picture

Who am I?

Hi, I'm Jen Vidad, owner & photographer for PhotoGraphic Creations. After spending years as an elementary school teacher with a Master's Degree in Education, I felt the need for a creative outlet.  The return to my photography roots has calmed my sprit and brought me back to life.  Corny, yes.  But I am all about it!  

I truly enjoy being behind my camera. I am passionate about exposing the beauty in each of my clients.  

-Jen

The Studio

My love for candid photography and natural light encompasses my work.  The occasional studio shoot with dramatic lighting and fancy clothes is always fun. From engagements to newborns... I love capturing people.  

Located in Las Vegas, Nevada

Diane & her girls

Diane wanted an updated family photo and the girls were looking forward to new photos for their MySpace/FaceBook pages… isn’t it great when everyone is happy?!  I think my favorite part of the morning was when the girls charmed Diane into taking “only child” photos  :-)  Super cute!  See the slide show here.

D&BLT: I had a BLAST with all of you!  What an amazing mom and such lovely girls- LOVED working with you!

Jessi & Ryan | Engaged

Congratulations on your engagement Jessi & Ryan!  Originally from Wisconsin, the couple wanted their images to be green and natural- something that did not scream “Las Vegas” when people saw them… I think we succeeded!  The peacock with his beautiful tail outstretched was a nice touch.  View the slide show here.

J&R: thank you so much for including me in your celebration.  I know your wedding in Wisconsin will be everything you imagine and more (maybe even with a bit rain so you can use the umbrellas!!  :-)

Country Life

A weekend visit to Minnesota proved to be full of friends, love & relaxation!  Tena, who I went to high school with in Lake Havasu, has a beautiful baby girl who just turned one.  What a perfect opportunity to capture their cute little family!

TT&K: what a pleasure photographing you…  I love how you laugh to make Kaylee laugh- beautiful!

The Rogers Family in Red Springs

Julie wanted to surprise Mark’s dad with photos of the family for Father’s Day.  What a great idea!  Owen had a blast photographing at Red Springs and by the end of the morning everyone seemed comfortable in front of the camera  :-)  See the slide show here.

Looking for Ladybugs

anthony_01anthony_02

Although Anthony was teasing me by hiding his smile for most of this session, his mom was able to coax him out of his shell with a little ladybug named Yucca.  See more images here.

A&A: what a delight to find all the moments of joy on Anthony’s face!  Thank you so much for the candles, it was such a lovely surprise!
