Quinta Real Oaxaca Wedding Photographer // Emmy & Quenton

PARTNERS:

Second Shooter / César Pórroga
Video / Gio López
Venue / Quinta Real Oaxaca

Emmy and Quenton brought a bit of New York City’s rhythm to the streets of Oaxaca. The intense afternoon sun pushed everyone into the pool and seemed to cry out for a beer or a cocktail from those who were in the place. Emmy got dressed in her hotel room with her friends and family, while Quenton did all the same but in an apartment a few blocks away. The ceremony took place in the "Jardín de los Lavaderos" one of the most iconic corners of the former convent where the beautiful Hotel Quinta Real de Oaxaca is now located. Right after a great ceremony, a classic calenda oaxaqueña led us to dance in the streets with all its color, music and some good shots of mezcal. They had a great party, and without a doubt, they chose one of the most beautiful places in the country to do it. Who wouldn't enjoy a day in a place like this with the people they love the most?

What beautiful memories. Thank you Emmy and Quenton for letting me be a part of this. I wish you the best in this new adventure.

PS: I have to say that the groom did, without any doubt, one of the best dance moves I've ever seen.

Back Garden Wedding Photographer // Tali & David

PARTNERS:

Wedding Planner / Fernando Arteaga
Marquesitas / Marquesitas Bike
Location / Bosques de la Herradura, Mexico City

As I got further and further away from the traffic of Mexico City, a beautiful amount of trees were wrapping my way to Bosques de la Herradura. It was a really spectacular day and the garden where the civil wedding was going to happen was taking shape. Tali and David were legally married right under a beautiful jacaranda tree in full view of their families and friends. Food carts (as if we were in the middle of the city) fed our bellies. We ate some delicious Yucatán marquesitas as if it were the last day of our lives. Just as Jenny (from Forrest Gump) there was a bride walking barefoot on the green grass of that garden.

The official wedding day was just around the corner, as was COVID-19 (that we didn't know).

To be continued ;)

Cancun Wedding Photographer // Mel & Manu

PARTNERS:

Wedding & Travel Planner / Boarding Pass
Dress / Romina Ruffinelli
Ceremony / Moon Palace Cancun
Reception Venue / Beach Palace Cancun
Second Shooter / Juan Luis Jimenez

It was my 31st birthday and I was getting on a plane headed for the Caribbean Sea. When I left the cabin, a heat stroke warned me that we were already in beach weather. A significant number of tourists were waiting for the transport that should take them to their paradisiacal hotels (just like Juanito—the other half of the team—and me). A few months after meeting in a cozy café in Asunción, Paraguay; we met again, but this time, in front of that turquoise sea.

The day of Melanie and Manu's wedding started very early in the gym, continued on the beach and then went into ‘wedding mode’ and began with the preparations of each one. We took a bus to the magnificent Moon Palace that was waiting for us. Another thing that was also waiting for us was a gigantic storm (it was) that broke out minutes before leaving for the chapel for the religious ceremony (the funny thing was that we were able to get on a golf cart to get to the place). It was a great time surrounded by family and friends; the ones that matter.

Back at the hotel and after photos on the beach we went back to that top floor where we felt and breathed that sea in front of us (barely illuminated by the moonlight). What followed from dinner was simply spectacular, bride and groom surprising everyone with a dance number and unleashing what was one of the hottest parties I've ever been to.

Although the speakers were no longer working, I still remember clapping hands in the water to the beat of the music.

An unforgettable night.

Simplemente, gracias M&M.
