Welcome to this fun and edgy Palm Springs sunrise engagement session.  The glistening sunrise portraits in Palm Springs, showcase this spectacular desert resort city in California.  Believe it or not, romance is everywhere to be found here in the desert.  Home of the Elvis Honeymoon Hideaway, Palms Springs is where Elvis and Priscilla chose to spend their honeymoon.  Bridget and Chandler’s choice of the Palm Springs California Windmills engagement session was truly an adventure.  Happy days, with a supercool Harley Davidson motorbike, to complete the carefree, edgy mood for the portrait shots.

Palm Springs is located within the Colorado Desert Coachella Valley and is approximately 94 square miles.  Explore the Coachella Valley on horseback and find the Thousand Palm Oasis.  Hike the Victor Loop into Palm Canyon and have yourself an adventure of a lifetime.  Don’t forget a trip to the amazing Seven Sisters Falls.  Aside from the restaurants and shops, the Palm Springs Walk of Stars is a must.  World-class resorts and spas make the lively downtown of Palm Springs one of the best weekend getaways in California.  Is it any wonder Bridget and Chandler chose this epic location for their engagement photo shoot.

The Couple: Palm Springs, California

Bridget wore a black, Pink Floyd t-shirt, black leather shorts and knee-high black boots.  Chandler was all in black with a chunky silver chain being his only accessory.  Sunglasses completed the cool, edgy look.  This very playful and passionate engagement session shows them absolutely being themselves.  In addition, the sun rising in the background made it overall perfect. The Harley Davidson was the perfect prop for the “wind in your hair” vibe of the photo shoot.

Seeing these two bringing it, out in the desert on a Harley was so awesome!  Tough, cool yet vulnerable comes to mind as Bridget and Chandler showcased their personalities in their own way.  They were able to relax into the shoot and merge with the charm of their surrounds, windmills, desert and dirt bikes.  The white windmills, a stark contrast to the black that Bridget and Chandler wore was perfect.  The golden sun rising in the sky and shining through Bridget’s long dark hair was epic. We all had so much fun and were especially excited how each photo told a different story.

Plan your very own destination engagement session that is an expression of your personalities, you won’t be disappointed.  Whether you choose a mountain top or a sandy Palm Springs California desert, I can make your dreams come true.  You will be able to look at your portraits over and over and still remember the thrill of the photoshoot.
