About Photographer Tom Windeknecht
I'm a photographer, brand collaborator, and content creator based in Yucca Valley, California, which is near Joshua Tree National Park in Southern California. My style is colorful and fun, and it captures the attention of various brands, keeping me busy with creative collaborations to produce vibrant product photos and playful stop-motion animations. My passions include product, landscape, travel, and architectural photography. I enjoy traveling throughout California, as well as new destinations, to capture captivating images. Since 2016, I have been a Google Ambassador for their award-winning Google Pixel phones, and I'm a member of Google's #teampixel. You can also find me posting frequently on my own Instagram account @tomwindeknecht.
I'm available to photograph throughout the desert cities, including Yucca Valley, Joshua Tree, Twentynine Palms, Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and the rest of the Morongo Basin and Coachella Valley.
