The Best Wedding Photographers in Desert Hot Springs, CA

The moments you remember most aren’t usually the ones that were planned. My approach is documentary-driven and unhurried, focused on connection, movement, and the quiet in-between moments that tend to mean the most later. I work best with couples who value presence over perfection and want images that feel honest, intimate, and timeless. Whether your day is big or small, traditional or unconventional, my goal is to create space for you to be fully yourselves — and to tell your story as it naturally unfolds.

That is exactly what I see and what I capture when I get behind my camera and face it out into our beautiful world.

Welcome. My wife and I traded our life in the beautiful beach town of Santa Cruz, California for the cactus, sand, and sun of the desert. We love it here!

Even though my journey into the world of photography was birthed later in my life, I believe that it is never too late to reinvent myself and unlock my creative side. When I am not behind a camera I enjoy visiting grandkids, traveling, riding my motorcycle, and hanging out with friends.
