Isla Mujeres Beach Wedding at the Villa Rolandis Resort

I had the opportunity to photograph a very special, intimate, sunset beach wedding in Isa Mujeres a few weeks ago at the beautiful Villa Rolandis Resort, for one of the nicest couples I have met. We also made some amazing day after photographs very early the next morning, in non wedding clothing, and they were very definitely worth waking up early for! This couple would like to keep their photographs all to themselves, but I hope this this image of rose petals in the lovely white Isla Mujeres sand will encourage anyone who is considering a destination wedding at Isla Mujeres!

Destination wedding portraits at the Hacienda San Jose

When Aydee contacted me about her wedding to Justin at the Hacienda San Jose Cholul I had the date previously reserved. I was disappointed, because the Hacienda San Jose is one of my absolute favorite places and I could tell immediately that Aydee would be a great bride to work with. I was thrilled when they asked me to shoot their portrait session the day before the wedding. It has been my experience that doing wedding portraits on a day other than the wedding is just a wonderful way to get relaxed, outstanding images, since there is no rush or nervousness like on the big day. It is a bit of an effort to plan the photo session but so much fun and I think the photographs are very much worth it. Aydee and Justin…congratulations, it was wonderful to work with you both. ¡Muchas felicidades!

Wedding photojournalism…telling the story of love

There is nothing better for a wedding photojournalist than being able to use unposed images to tell the story of the real moments that make up the day. Diana and Alberto were a wonderful couple to work with, because of their gift of being completely open to the moment, as well as very much in love. It was a joy for me as a photographer to be able to capture some of their magic.

No hay nada mejor para una fotoperiodista de bodas que poder contar la verdadera historia del día atravez de sus momentos reales y espontaneos. Fue maravilloso trabajar con Diana y Mario porque ambos posean el don de gozar completamente cada momento y porque están muy enamorados. Fue una alegría para mi como fotógrafa poder captar algo de su mágia. Diana y Alberto, les felicito de todo corazón y les deseo lo mejor.

Hacienda Temozón Destination Wedding

Tania and Luis make a beautiful couple (if anyone has actually been reading this wedding photography blog, it will be clear by now that I really enjoy the couples I photograph, maybe it is because I get to spend the happiest day of their lives with them, but they are all just amazing!). I had been looking forward to photographing this wedding, since it would be taking place at the Hacienda Temozón Sur, a very spectacular hacienda in Yucatan, Mexico where I had never previously had the opportunity to photograph a wedding. The hacienda absolutely did not disappoint, and Tania and Luis had planned a very intimate candle light reception with all kinds of Mexican surprises for their international guests, from folkloric dancing to fireworks and mariachis. ¡Muchas graciás, Tania y Luis!

Dianna and Mario’s Yucatán Wedding

Dianna and Mario make up one of the nicest couples I have met! Their wedding was a very relaxed and easy going celebration, it was fun to witness the two of them enjoying each other and their families and friends. It was also great to see such a totally international crowd mingling and enjoying each other so much. The wedding was held in Mérida’s beautiful and historic Itzimná church and the reception at the modern fiesta Americana Hotel on the Paseo de Montejo. Congratulations to both of you!

A very special hacienda wedding in Yucatan

La boda de Javier y Jimena se festejó en la Hacienda San Diego Tixcacal, esa hacienda se prestó mucho para que la boda tuviera un ambiente fuera de lo acostubrado. La misa se celebró en la puerta de la capilla antigua de la hacienda, que ahora funciona como iglesia del pequeño pueblo que rodea la hacienda. Fue una noche inolvidable con una pareja muy divertida…¡felicidades a los dos!
