Arrives in Las Vegas

By Jo Ann Munz

How many times have you seen the gorgeous images of a woman in a long flowing dress standing on the beaches of picturesque Sanotini, Greece and thought to yourself, “that could be me!”? Well, it can, and you don’t even need a passport; Las Vegas Flying Dress, sister company to Maui Flying Dress has just landed and is ready to portray you as the Goddess you’ve always wanted to be!

The Maui Flying Dress Experience was created during the COVID lockdown by Laurence and Regina Balter, owners of the Maui Flight Academy. In addition to running a flight school and being the official cover photographer for Wailea-Makena Magazine, Balter has also produced hours of flying videos in Hawaii for their large Facebook and YouTube following. When travel restrictions crushed the tourism indus-

try, he used the time to refine and elevate his photography to a whole other level with one iconic flying dress shot of 2 models standing on the wings of his aircraft in Hana, Maui, Canon quickly noticed and approved him for their camera crew and the company was born! With his unique eye for lighting, composition and cinematic flair, his partner is his former professional model wife. She is the on-scene stylist, helping clients with poses, dressing and all the fun details. As a team they’ve patiently transformed many women from camera shy to Supermodel! Balter states, “The common theme we book is birthday milestones, honeymoons, engagements and yes, even divorces! We take our job of capturing that memory for them very seriously.”

So how did they decide to expand the brand to Sin City? “Las Vegas is a photographer’s dream location, because you have such amazing locations to choose from both day and night,” Balter says with a gleam in his eye. The experience is a 45-minute total super star treatment production complete with lighting crew, stylist, make-up artists, photo editors and a dress pilot. Options include a day or night shoot, choice of locations such as the Las Vegas Strip, Red Rock, the Arts District, Nelson’s Landing Ghost Town and the Valley of Fire being the most popular, and of course, the dress! All dresses are steam cleaned and sterilized to perfection and with over 14 yards of fabulousness, in a dozen colors to choose from, these transformer dresses fly with unlimited ways to style make choosing the location the easy part! Balter is quick to point out, “No matter how beautiful it is, it’s truly the woman inside that makes the dress. We’re

here to capture YOUR beauty and radiance.” Models are encouraged to plan ahead to bring any special jewelry, shoes or accessories they may like to use and bikini bottoms to match the dress color

they have selected. Whether it’s a solo or group shoot, he expects only 1 thing from every model, “The main objective is just to have fun, it really is a 1 of a kind experience!”

Now that the Flying Dress Experience has come to town, we may need to lose the “What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas” slogan, because these are definitely vacation pictures that you’ll want everyone to see!
