Palm Springs Wedding Videographer
Let me be straight with you. If you’re looking for a Palm Springs wedding videographer, most of what you’ll find is forgettable. Shaky footage, generic music, a highlight reel that looks exactly like every other highlight reel you’ve ever seen on Instagram. You watch it once and never open it again.
That’s not what we do.
We have eight years shooting desert weddings and we make cinematic wedding films that actually feel like you. Not a template. Not a preset. Your story, your people, your wedding day told in a way that makes you want to watch it every single anniversary with a glass of something good.
Palm Springs is one of those places that makes this job genuinely exciting. The light here is unlike anywhere else in Southern California. The desert landscapes, the mid-century architecture, the way golden hour hits the San Jacinto Mountains behind a ceremony. Whether you’re getting married at a Frank Sinatra estate, eloping in Joshua Tree, or saying your vows at a boutique hotel surrounded by your closest people, this valley gives you something to work with that most locations simply can’t match.
This page covers everything: our wedding videography packages, the best venues in the valley, why hiring both a photographer and videographer is worth it, and honest answers to the questions couples actually ask before booking a video team.
Why Hire Us As Your Palm Springs Wedding Videographers?
We’re a small team and we like it that way. Every wedding we take on gets our full attention, not a junior shooter who has never been to the venue before and is figuring it out on your wedding day.
Our work has been featured in Green Wedding Shoes, Martha Stewart Weddings, and Brides magazine. We’ve filmed hundreds of weddings across Southern California including Palm Springs, Joshua Tree, and beyond. Same-sex weddings, desert elopements, intimate weddings of twenty people, full celebrations of two hundred. We’ve shot all of it and we genuinely love all of it.
What makes our wedding films different is simple. Rather than just pointing a camera at pretty things, we’re watching the room. We’re in position before the father of the bride starts tearing up, capturing the groom seeing his partner for the first time before anyone else in the room even notices his face. Those are the moments that make a wedding film worth watching twenty years from now, and those are the moments most videographers miss because they’re focused on the wrong things.
Our style is cinematic but never overdone. Natural light whenever possible. Real moments over staged ones. A film that feels like your relationship, not like a generic wedding trailer with the same drone shot every other couple in Palm Springs already has on their Instagram.
We cover Palm Springs, Joshua Tree, Coachella Valley, and all surrounding areas in Southern California. Destination weddings beyond California are absolutely on the table too.

Why You Should Not Skip The Video
Here’s the honest truth about wedding videography. Most couples who skip hiring a videographer regret it within the first year. The flowers are gone the next day, the cake gets eaten, and the dress goes in a box. A wedding film is different, though. You’ll watch it on your first anniversary, your fifth, and your twentieth. Eventually you’ll show it to your kids someday. That’s the only thing from your wedding day that actually plays back the feeling of being there. So while it might feel like an optional line item right now, trust us when we say it’s not.
Best Palm Springs Wedding Venues
Palm Springs has an almost unfair number of gorgeous places to get married. Whether you want old Hollywood glamour, bohemian desert vibes, or something sleek and contemporary, the valley delivers. Here are our personal favorites after eight years of filming weddings here.
Iconic Estates
If you want a wedding venue with genuine history and character, these estates are hard to beat. The Twin Palms Frank Sinatra Estate is mid-century glamour at its absolute best. Filming here never gets old because the property does so much of the work for you. The Frederick Loewe Estate brings lush gardens and a classic Palm Springs elegance that photographs and films beautifully at any time of day. For something a little more tucked away, the Historic Cree Estate has a vintage intimacy that makes it one of our personal favorites to shoot at. Casa de Monte Vista is perfect for bohemian couples who want lush greenery and a relaxed desert atmosphere. And Casa Verona is a dream for smaller, intimate weddings where you want everything to feel close and personal.
Boutique Hotels
For couples who want something stylish, social media friendly, and full of personality, Palm Springs boutique hotels consistently deliver. The Ace Hotel is cool and effortlessly casual, perfect for couples who want a relaxed desert wedding vibe. Avalon Hotel brings Palm Springs charm together with upscale touches, think chic courtyards and fire pits at golden hour. Korakia is honestly one of our all time favorites to film at. The Mediterranean-meets-bohemian atmosphere creates something genuinely cinematic. Casa Cody feels like a home away from home, historic and full of character. And Colony 29 is sleek, minimalist, and architectural, with that perfect desert twist for couples who want something clean and structured.
Beyond Palm Springs
Worth mentioning that some of our favorite wedding films have come from just outside the valley. Joshua Tree is a destination that’s genuinely unlike anywhere else on earth for a desert wedding. The landscape is dramatic, the light is extraordinary, and the whole experience feels completely removed from the rest of the world. If you’re open to exploring beyond Palm Springs proper, Joshua Tree is worth a serious conversation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I hire a videographer for my wedding?
Honestly, yes. But rather than just telling you that, let me share two stories that might help put it in perspective.
My wife and I paid for our own wedding and we were cutting corners wherever we could. At the time, hiring a wedding videographer felt like a luxury we simply couldn’t justify. Fast forward a year later when we had paid everything off, and the regret hit hard. So many of the people who were there that day, friends and family, are no longer with us. Those moments are gone forever. Money comes and goes, but those memories are priceless. We think about that every single year.
The second story isn’t mine. While filming a wedding recently, the father of the groom, who was also the best man, gave a speech that stopped the entire room. He talked about his son’s battle with cancer, how he beat it, and how he found the love of his life on the other side of it. That was raw, emotional, and completely unforgettable. Unfortunately, the couple had decided to skip hiring a videographer to save money. Those words, that moment, exist now only in the fading memories of the people who were there.
So when couples ask us whether they need a wedding videographer, our answer is always the same. You only get one wedding day. Make sure someone is there to capture it properly.
