JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort Photographer{Patrick + Shannon} Palm Desert

New Years Day 2012. What a great day to kick off the New Year by photographing a beautiful wedding at one of my favorite venues in Palm Desert. The JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort and Spa is incredible. Patrick traveled all the way from Japan to marry his bride Shannon, who traveled from Hawaii to the have their destination wedding in Palm Desert, California.

It was a typical day in Palm Desert, temps around 82 desgrees, sunny skies, slight breeze. The hotel was bursting with love on this New Year's Day and Mark and I were there to capture every minute of it. I felt so blessed to be doing what I love and making lasting moments for this sweet couple.

The wedding ceremony was held at the Pointe on the grounds of Desert Springs Resort and Spa.
Shannon traveled across the resort via a boat, then she made her walk down the aisle to marry her groom.

Patrick and Shannon's closest family and friends traveled to Palm Desert to share in this sweet destination wedding. I love intimate weddings. Each and every person there is unique and special to the couple.

It was truly an honor to be a part of this military wedding. Patrick's uniform adorned all of his accolades he earned while protecting our country. The couple even used Patrick's military sword to cut the cake. How cool is that!

Enjoy the sneak peak at this beautiful Palm Desert Destination Wedding.


This photo is a sneak peak of how my new blog posts will be featured as soon as my new website and blog are up. I can't wait!









The First Look Photos are always so romantic...




The Bride Shannon arrived to the ceremony via boat. So fun for all.





Love this shot.


Palm Desert has the most amazing sunsets.
