Jennifer & Todd’s dreamy Palm Desert Wedding

Chicago Wedding Photographer’s head to California for destination wedding in the dessert

chicago-wedding-photographers-05

You know us for our boudoir work, but every so often, Kelly and I will photograph a wedding.  In December we headed to dreamy Palm Dessert, California to capture the nuptials of Jennifer and Todd.  The wedding was so swoon-worthy, with the dusty colors of the dessert as a backdrop, a bride’s creative vision, and a surprise flash mob at the end. Needless to say, we were in heaven.

We’re extra grateful to Splash Magazine for featuring the wedding last week. Read how a playful tiff between Jennifer and Todd upon first meeting lead to a lifetime together via this link.
