An Unforgettable Journey: Photographing an Elopement Wedding in Joshua Tree National Park
As a wedding photographer, I’m fortunate to capture love stories in some of the most breathtaking destinations. Recently, I had the unique honour of being flown out to Joshua Tree National Park for an intimate elopement wedding. Alissa and Quinn eloped to Joshua Tree with just their close family and friends to get married amongst the parks incredible surroundings.
Joshua Tree is an ethereal landscape with its dramatic rock formations and the most amazing desert flora, it really created the most stunning backdrop for Alissa and Quinn’s elopement wedding. The couple had chosen this remote location for its unique beauty and isolation, the a ceremony that felt connected to the earth. It was a small gathering, with only close family and friends present. The intimacy of the occasion, combined with the jawdropping landscape, made it unforgettable.
The soft desert light created magical moments throughout the day, Alissa changed nto a post ceremony dress which reflected the golden hour light perfectly! I found myself completely absorbed in capturing not just their love, but also the raw beauty of the surroundings.
Being flown to photograph this intimate elopment wedding was a reminder of how fortunate I am to document these love stories, often in extraordinary places like Joshua Tree!
Alissa and Quinn got ready in a nearby air b&b in Cactus City and then had their first look outside in the garden surrounded by the desert. this was so emotional! They then set of with their family and friends on the drive through the nation park to the most beautiful spot for their ceremony. They decided to say thier personalised vows in private, so we found a secluded spot amongst the huge rock formations. They then went on to say “I do” underneath the most magical Josha Tree whilst their family and friends looked on. The celebrations started swiftly afterwards and Alissa spraying the champage over everyone was a real highlight!…
Here’s more from their unforgettable day…
