Coachella 2012: The Dust Settles

 shooting coachella this year was an amazing, exhausting, sweaty and beautiful experience. 106 degrees, barely any sleep, unbelievable music and energy, lost cars, crazy parties, late night edit sessions and collabs with la weekly writers and photogs... it had a bit of everything. amongst all the madness i put together the party and fashion galleries below, and here are some of my favorite festival moments as well now that the dust is settling on another coachella festival.

4/14 Coachella Pool Parties (Saturday) for LA Weekly

 Shooting photos at 5 pool parties in 6 hours is just as fun (and as stressful) as it sounds. Happy people, free food and drinks, amazing DJs and great weather in ridiculous desert locations make it one of the best days/weekends of the year, even if you never make it into the Coachella festival. Above Elijah Wood and Theophilus London DJ at the A Club Called Rhonda, Guess and Lacoste parties. FULL PHOTO GALLERY:
