Event photography in Palm Springs. Edited galleries in 5 days, delivered fast.
Palm Springs runs on visitors, which means most events here are competing with the rest of somebody's weekend. The photographs have to do more than record the night; they have to make the next one look worth flying in for.
Downtown venues, hotel ballrooms and open-air courtyards all light completely differently, so I scout the room before guests arrive and set up for the light that will actually be there at eight, not the light at four.

Event photography in Palm Springs
Regular event work across Palm Springs, from downtown venues and hotel spaces to gallery openings and chamber gatherings.
The Palm Springs problem: outdoor events that lose the light
Courtyard and poolside events start in daylight and finish in the dark, which is two shoots in one evening. I bring lighting for the second half rather than pushing ISO until the pictures go grainy, so the last hour looks like the first.
