Currently there is a $400 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, some light up but only at night....but
they make for a genuinely
interesting and one of a kind opportunity for photography.
NEW update, they just opened up the NORTH GALLERY, $200 for a 1/2
hour time slot there...it is about 1/2 the size of the original boneyard
gallery.
we can get some good pics in there....:-)
Call or email me for MY availability and to book, more information and such.
