Natural, timeless wedding photography for destination couples getting married in Puerto Vallarta
Real moments, beautiful light, and a relaxed experience from start to finish
Here are a few destination weddings I’ve photographed in Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit. Each celebration is unique, but they all share the same focus on emotion, beautiful light, and meaningful moments.
I’ve had the opportunity to photograph weddings at beautiful venues such as Secrets Bahía Mita, Iberostar, and Sayulita, along with many other locations across the bay.
Real Weddings in Puerto Vallarta
Planning a wedding in Puerto Vallarta from the US or Canada comes with a lot of moving parts. Choosing the right location, coordinating vendors, and making sure everything comes together smoothly from a distance can feel overwhelming.
Working with a local wedding photographer makes a big difference. I’ve photographed weddings across Puerto Vallarta and nearby areas, and I help couples not only capture their day naturally, but also navigate lighting, timelines, and the best locations for their photos.
My approach is simple, I focus on real moments, genuine emotions, and creating a relaxed experience so you can fully enjoy your wedding day without feeling like you’re constantly posing.
Most of the couples I work with are planning from abroad and want a photographer who can guide them while keeping everything natural and easy.
I regularly work with couples traveling to Puerto Vallarta, so I understand the challenges of planning from abroad and how to make the process simple and stress-free.
My focus is on capturing moments as they happen, with a mix of gentle direction when needed so your photos feel authentic, not forced.
From beachfront ceremonies to jungle venues, I help you choose the right timing and spots so your photos look their best.
You don’t need to know how to pose. I guide you in a natural way so you feel comfortable and present throughout the day.
Many couples also choose to schedule an engagement session before or after their wedding week. You can explore my engagement photography in Puerto Vallarta to see more.

If you are planning a beach wedding in Puerto Vallarta, a resort celebration in Nuevo Vallarta, or a private villa wedding in Riviera Nayarit, I would love to document your story. As a destination wedding photographer in Mexico, I work closely with couples traveling from abroad to ensure their wedding photography experience feels organized, relaxed, and meaningful.
My wedding photography collections start at 38,000 MXN, with a minimum coverage of 4 hours. Every wedding is unique, so pricing depends on your timeline, venue, and specific needs. I create custom packages to make sure your coverage fits your celebration perfectly.
Yes, most of my couples travel from the US and Canada to get married in Puerto Vallarta. I am bilingual, so communication is easy from the first call to the wedding day. I can also help coordinate with local vendors in Spanish if needed, which makes the planning process much smoother.
The minimum coverage I recommend is 4 hours, which works well for intimate weddings and elopements. For larger celebrations, most couples choose between 6 to 8 hours to capture getting ready, ceremony, portraits, and reception moments. In some cases, coverage can be adjusted to as little as 2 hours depending on your plans.
Yes. Most of the weddings I photograph take place at beach resorts and oceanfront venues in Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit. I am very familiar with beach lighting, sunset timing, and how to work with natural elements like wind and strong sunlight to create beautiful images.
There is a strong chance I have. I have worked at venues such as Secrets and Dreams Bahia Mita, Iberostar Playa Mita, Grand Palladium Punta de Mita, Paradise Village, Sayulita, Marriott Puerto Vallarta, Secrets and Dreams Vallarta Bay, Grand Fiesta Americana Puerto Vallarta, Westin Puerto Vallarta, Casa Makumba, and Conchas Chinas Beach, among others.
If I have not photographed at your exact venue yet, I know the area and lighting conditions of Banderas Bay very well, so I can adapt quickly and confidently.
Rain is always a possibility in tropical destinations, especially during certain seasons. Depending on your venue, some parts of the wedding may move indoors. I use these situations creatively and take advantage of different settings to capture unique and beautiful images. No matter the weather, you will still receive a strong and meaningful collection of photographs.
Your full wedding gallery is typically delivered within 2 to 4 weeks. I also send a sneak peek within 48 hours of your wedding, so you can relive some of your favorite moments and share them with family and friends right away.
Yes, I like to be involved in the planning process. I help you build a realistic timeline that allows enough time for portraits while keeping the day relaxed. If you need recommendations for specific vendors in Puerto Vallarta, I am happy to share trusted local contacts.
Yes. I work with a professional lab that offers high quality wedding albums, canvas prints, metal prints, acrylic prints, and a wide variety of custom photo products. Everything can be designed carefully and delivered directly to your home.
The process is simple. First, we schedule a short video call to talk about your wedding plans and make sure we are a good fit. Once you decide to move forward, a 10 percent retainer and a signed contract secure your date. After that, we begin planning your photography timeline together.
If you’re getting married in Puerto Vallarta or Riviera Nayarit, I’d love to hear more about your plans. Share your wedding date, venue, and a few details about your celebration, and I’ll get back to you with availability and information about my wedding photography.
