Anza Borrego Engagement Session: Alex + Cynthia’s Desert Engagement Photos. First of all, I was so excited to be photographing Alex & Cynthia’s engagement photos here in The Anza Borrego desert! The national park was unbelievable and HUGE. I met up with these two outside the park during sunrise and we drove in together.
Dylan + Jordan: Joshua Tree Couple's Session
A COUPLE WORKING OUT IN JOSHUA TREE
Get two cutie soccer players in front of your camera at golden hour in the desert and helloooo MAGIC!!! I met these two a year ago while attending a photo retreat in Palm Springs. A fellow photographer setup a little shoot with them and they agreed to let a few of us take photos as well. Turns out Jordan and I live fairly close, so we wound up swapping information to plan another shoot. It only took us about a full year to actually get another shoot on the books! They’re both soccer players and into fitness, so it only made sense to do a fitness inspired shoot rather than something overly couple-y and cute.
Bianca + Lennox: Joshua Tree Styled Elopement
A DESERT STYLED ELOPEMENT
We hosted our fourth (re)treat yo’self in the desert and it was so fun! Be brought Bianca on as yoga instructor and her boyfriend Lennox came out for the weekend as well. They volunteered to model for us, so of course we took them up on it! Friar Tux let us borrow this awesome suit and the dress was found at Goodwill of all places!! The shots turned out SO SICK, especially since I shot a roll of film - Kodak Portra 800 - sooo good! That first shot up there is filmmm!
Dominick + Erin: Palm Springs Engagement Session
A DESERT GETAWAY
Erin really wanted a desert feel for her photos & I’m all about a desert getaway! I was already going to be in Palm Springs for a wedding the day before, so I decided to stay the night. They met me there the following day and we ventured around Palm Springs! They really wanted some adobe and open desert areas & you better believe we found both.
