Palm Springs California Wedding

One of my favorite places to relax and knock back a couple of cocktails has always been Ace Hotel in Palm Springs. I seriously love the vibe of Ace Hotel, and the fact they serve drinks poolside until 2:00a.m. I can’t even tell you how many times the wife and I have made the drive from Temecula to Palm Springs to do nothing more than swim and booze it up. So needless to say when Janet contacted me about my availability to photograph her daughter Ali’s November wedding at Ace Hotel I was ready to rock. I mean who wouldn’t want to shoot a wedding then afterward hang out at the pool and knock back drinks as memory cards load up?

Ali and Chris met at Lake Mojave while essentially boating, camping, boozing and all that fun stuff. After a whirlwind romance that included Chris cooking breakfast in the nude every Saturday, and Ali forcing her man to watch an endless amount of chick flicks like 50 Shades of Grey and Magic Mike, the two decided it was time to get hitched in the desert. The plan was to get married at a church in Palm Desert where Ali’s uncle was a Pastor for nearly 30 years then bus back to Ace Hotel for cocktails and celebration. I have to say the plan went off without a hitch! The wedding was authentic, full of good energy and was a blast for all 200+ guests. I loved everything about this wedding and hope Ali and Chris enjoy these photographs as much as I enjoyed capturing them.

Oh and THANK YOU again Janet for finding me and showing my Palm Springs Wedding Photography to your daughter! It is always beyond rad when someone sees your photography work and likes it so much they tell their friends or family about it. I owe you a big hug. A real hug like a bear hug. Grizzly bear style. Cheers!
