Photographs of the Trump Rally in Coachella
On October 12, 2024, I photographed Donald Trump’s surprise rally at Calhoun Ranch in Coachella Valley. The event was announced only briefly beforehand and drew national attention—not only because it unfolded in deeply Democratic California, but also because it came in the wake of heightened security concerns.
Just before the rally, Riverside County deputies arrested a man at a security checkpoint less than a mile from the venue. He was found with a loaded handgun, a shotgun, ammunition, and false press credentials. Local officials described the arrest as possibly preventing yet another assassination attempt, though federal authorities later stated there was no evidence of an actual plan to attack. The incident underscored the tension surrounding the rally and made headlines worldwide.
That evening, my photographs were syndicated through ZUMA Press. They were published internationally within hours and have continued to be licensed by major news outlets around the world. These images now stand as both journalism and a historical record of a rare political moment in the Coachella Valley.
For the first time, these photographs are also available directly through my website for collectors, researchers, and anyone interested in political history. Options include general prints and personal-use downloads.
