Las Vegas family photographer, parents and young son at golden hour

Real moments,
made cinematic.

Warm, candid family and portrait photography in Las Vegas, with select sessions along the San Diego coast.

Nothing stiff or over-rehearsed. Just natural direction and real expressions.

I photograph families, couples, and faces across the desert and the coast. Calm direction, honest emotion, rich natural color, and images that will age well on your wall.

They said it better than I could

One of the best photo shoots we’ve had. Joe makes it so comfortable and fun, and captured some amazing shots of our family.

Shadoe W.Family

He spent lots of time with us and even stayed longer to catch the sunset. Knowledgeable and creative, I’d give him six stars if I could.

JohnCouples

I can’t recommend him enough. From start to finish he was truly amazing, and he even worked my dog into the photos.

From red rock to the coast

From desert light to ocean sunsets, these are places I return to again and again.

Joseph Blake, Las Vegas family and portrait photographer

Hi, I’m Joseph

I’m a Las Vegas family and portrait photographer, a full-time stay-at-home dad, and a lifelong technology enthusiast. I was raised in San Diego, but Vegas has been home for the past 20 years. My wife and I are raising two wild and wonderful toddlers here.

I’ve been creating visual work since the days of film and floppy disks, and I still get excited every time I press the shutter. Whether I’m photographing a family, a couple at golden hour, or headshots for a business, I keep the experience relaxed and the photographs honest.
