It may have been mentioned in the links suggested but Red Rock Canyon, just 20 minutes drive is also a spectacular area for taking photos. If you look at my postings you will find three pictures from there.
Oops, just noticed that Joe mentioned RRC already!

Thanks for asking this question. I will also be going to Las Vegas in early February.
Don't know if anyone mentioned Calico Basin, about a mile east of the entrance to Red Rock Canyon Nat'l Park, beautiful location!
Also El Dorado Canyon is off 165, a nice side trip if you're headed to the Dam, drive to the end of the road about 4 miles past the mine and you're at the river

The Dam is great, there's a (very high) walkover bridge to shoot from or you can go out on the Dam during the day, or in the parking lot at night. (no people at night!!)
Valley of Fire, definitely!
Spring Mountain Ranch, beautiful in winter, got the best shots of my life there in January. It's just a few miles west of Red Rock Canyon... So many wonderful places to shoot.
Of course there's the strip, neon, neon, neon, beautiful hotels and interesting sights...
Hope both of you have a great trip!
