One good frame does most of the work.

A listing, a ribbon cutting, a headshot: the right frame is the one that makes somebody stop scrolling and look properly.

Questions

Questions I get a lot

What do you photograph?

Real estate, events and headshots, all across the Coachella Valley. If it is something close to one of those, ask me anyway. The worst I will say is that I know someone better suited.

How far ahead should I book?

A week or two is comfortable for most things. Listings I can usually turn around faster than that, and I have picked up same-week events plenty of times, so it is always worth asking.

How quickly do I get the photos?

Listings come back in 24 to 48 hours. Events take 3 to 5 business days. Headshots take 5 to 7, or 7 to 10 for a team.

Do I pay to ask?

No. Sending an inquiry costs nothing and does not hold a date. I reply with what it would cost and what I have open, and you decide from there.

What areas do you cover?

The whole Coachella Valley. I shoot regularly in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, La Quinta, Rancho Mirage, Indio, Cathedral City, and Desert Hot Springs, and I am happy to travel anywhere in the valley at no extra charge. There is a page for each city and service below with the details for that area.

Let's plan your shoot

Let's get your shoot started.

Pick what you need photographed and add your name and email. That is all I need to reply, usually within one business day.

What do you need photographed?

Leave it blank if you are still deciding.

Time (optional)

Roughly when you need me there. We can move it later.
