Being a 24 year Las Vegas resident, I have had the opportunity to make
some great connections to people, places and locations...
that other photographers, tourists and out-of-town cleints would normally
NOT have access to ...such as the Neon Graveyard / Boneyard
Currently there is a $200 charge by the curator of the Neon Bonyard
for an exclusive and private 1 hour time slot, in addition to any photographer
fees
Bride and Groom plus photographer (me) some of the wedding party can
also attend the photo shoot, the curator likes to keep the number of people
down to about 6 plus the photographer,
it is a dirt lot with alot od metal / neon signs from the Las Vegas
past. The signs are weather beaten and old, none light up....but they make
for a genuinely
interesting and one of a kind opportunity for photography.
Call or email me for availability and to book, more information and
such. I will set-up the appointment

at least a one week advance notice is required for bookings as time
slots fill up FAST,
sunset / dusk is the most preffered time to shoot at the Neon Graveyard...so
2 weeks notice is best to ensure a time slot...
to check a date for sunset / dusk time go to www.sunrisesunset.com pick
Las Vegas, NV and the month / year,
click submit and it shows the calendar for that particular month with
the times of sunset/sunrise etc
Nearby at Downtown (old) Las Vegas, is the lighted, Neon outdoor museum
that is another great place to take pictures (no charge for access) anytime
of day or night....
Neonopolis, the Fremont Street Experience canopy (mega vision, Vegas
vision) Binions, The Mint, El Cortez and several more old Las Vegas icons
,are just down the road
from the neon boneyard, for those not wanting to spend $200 for access.
Neon Boneyard / Neon Museum
The Neon Museum collection boasts over 150 donated and rescued signs.
The core of this collection is contained in the Neon Museum Boneyard, a
rambling park approximately two acres in size. Signs featured date from
the late 1930s through the early 90s and represent motels, local businesses,
and celebrated casino resorts from throughout the Las Vegas Valley. While
the Boneyard is not electrified, the photogenic collection offers a glimpse
into the storied past of Las Vegas and its most memorable art form
