If there was ever a day in our lives we felt most alive, it was undoubtedly our wedding day. Our amazing wedding at the stunning Esperanza Resort was everything we dreamed….and more. A sunset ceremony followed by cocktails on the beach was the perfect setting to begin the celebration with our 60 guests.
Following a 3-course dinner on one of Esperanza’s beautiful terraces, the evening continued with cigars, cake, fireworks and lots of dancing. Sarai Flores of Signature Weddings coordinated all the details and the day was flawless.
There is no other photographer than Manuel Burgoin to capture those moments. From our first meeting with him, we felt a connection with him, not just as clients, but friends. Manuel really puts his heart and soul into his photos and his passion and talent really shine through.
He was amazing with the kids and our guests just adored him. Manuel’s artistic abilities speak for themselves and we would highly recommend him. We have LOTS of fabulous photos and couldn’t be more ecstatic!

We LOVE our photos and book and can’t wait to work with you again Manuel! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Sarah and Jared – November 14, 2009
“First let me say that it was such a pleasure having you as our wedding photographer.  Jared and I were both extremely comfortable during our photography session on our wedding day, and you have mastered the fine art of capturing all the special moments of a wedding without making anything feel “manufactured”.
On our wedding day, we both felt and said to each other that we were so glad we had hired you!  Also, I have to tell you how many compliments we have received on the photos you posted to your blog.  We love them!  And, of course, we are now so excited to see the rest of the photos.  I’m sure they will be amazing.
Thank you so much, Manuel, we truly appreciate your efforts in making our pictures look fabulous!”   Sarah + Jared
“Blue Sea Development is exquisite.   This is a modern, private, and serene location for a wedding.  My clients, Jared and Sarah Decker of Dallas, were recently married at Villa Annie Lie on Saturday, November 14, 2009. From the moment they stepped into this amazing villa, spotting the Sea of Cortez just passed the infinity pool; they knew this would be the wedding of their dreams.  With a beach ceremony, beach cocktail hour and terrace reception, guests enjoyed the convenience of the entire night in one private location.
Whether Villa Annie Lie, Villa Amanda or Villa Serena…you cannot go wrong with a properties managed by Lifestyle Management Services. Mariachis, fireworks, and a great DJ ensured this wedding was full of surprises for the guests and wonderful key moments. Hands on service from Villa Specialist, Susana Martin and Villa Concierge Adan guarantees your stay will be nothing short of amazing.”

We were married at the Riu Palace on November 6, 2009, our 8 year anniversary.
Our day began early at 6:00 am with hair and makeup, but exceeded all of our expectations.  Our amazing ceremony was on the beach in front of the famous arch and was followed by at private photo session for us and drinks at the bar for our guest.  We then had our first dance with music played by our wonderful friend, Jacob.
After drinks we enjoyed dinner and wedding cake at Mar De Cortes steak house restaurant. Our night ended with a bash at the legendary Cabo Wabo. Our wedding day was everything we could have ever hoped for and we are thankful for everyone who helped make it possible.
As for our photographer, where do I even begin, over a year ago when we decided to have a destination wedding, we then began our search not for the perfect place, but for the perfect photographer to capture our memories.  After weeks of searching we decided on Manuel and have not regretted it since.
A few weeks before our wedding we encountered a few problems getting Manuel to our resort, but he was very understanding and quick to adjust his day to accommodate us. We were very excited to finally meet him.  Manuel, your energy and enthusiasm for photography are amazing.

You made us feel comfortable and it seemed like you were just as happy as we were that our big day was finally here.  We cannot wait to see our photos because we know they will be incredible. Thank you for everything!!

We decided to do our wedding in Los Cabos, Mexico at the Dreams Resort.  Almost 100 of our closest friends and family flew in from all parts of the US and we even had some international guests join us.  It was a traditional Hindu wedding ceremony followed by a cocktail hour and a reception.

The weather was perfect and the mood was festive and joyous.  Everyone enjoyed the great food, the dancing, and the most amazing FIREWORKS under the stars and right next to the beach. It truly was a dream wedding!

This is an amazing hotel and the staff is beyond great. Each and every one of our guests enjoyed being there.  Everyone just ate, drank and relaxed with absolutely no worries of the world.

We worked with Manuel Burgoin as our photographer.  After seeing his work and speaking to him over the phone, there was no doubt in our minds that we wanted him to shoot our wedding.  He showed up with two assistants to ensure every special moment was caught.  He was punctual, had studied the detailed schedule previously agreed to and kept us on time.

Additionally, he was very accommodating when it came to the various types of pictures and backgrounds we wanted.  His experience and eye for photography became very clear throughout the evening.  Now we can’t wait to see the pictures as they are going to be sent to friends and family all over the world!

Elizabeth and Matthew – October 13, 2009
Elizabeth and Matt’s Wedding at the Cabo del Sol: Slideshow Presentation

Cabo del Sol was beautiful. Despite the impending Tropical Storm Patricia everything was perfect. We moved the wedding inside to the balcony and it felt like a scene out of Romeo & Juliet. It was so romantic. Our ceremony was performed by the Reverend Marco Arechiga. He did an exceptional job. He made everyone feel like family and created a one-of-a-kind experience for all us. It was a ceremony of full of emotion and joy.

The reception was exactly as I had imagined it. The lighting was perfect. The room absolutely glowed in candle light and pink and amber hues. The flowers were stunning and added the perfect finishing touches to everything.

The catering service at Cabo del Sol was outstanding. The food was great and the service was outstanding. All of the meals were placed at the table simultaneously. Extremely professional. Our wedding planner, Vari at Allure Event Design, planned everything from beginning to end with us and made all of the last minute changes that were necessary to ensure our welcome party, rehearsal dinner and wedding were still a monumental success despite the tropical storm! She was amazing!

And what can we say about Manuel at Weddings in Los Cabos, he is an absolute professional! He and his assistant stood in the rain to get the perfect shot and Manuel even ended up catching a cold because of it, but he never complained!

And when it was obvious we weren’t going to be able to get the shots we had wanted because of the weather, Manuel was extremely flexible and made plans to meet us on a different day for a second photo shoot…and we got the perfect photos. We couldn’t have been happier or have had more fun. We really had a great time taking our photos. We never felt posed or stiff. Everything was always very natural and so enjoyable. I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again or recommend him to a friend.

Very nice!!!!  We can’t wait to see the rest!
Amazing job!!
We got married at the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar on October 28, 2009 and it could not have been more perfect! The Sheraton staff along with our wedding planner, Brooke from Mi Amor, took all of our ideas (including some of their own) and created our dream wedding.

Our beautiful ceremony was held on the Sheraton’s beach, in a cove which was very private and the scenery was amazing. Our wedding dinner in the private wine cellar tucked away beneath Pitahayas restaurant was incredible! The 4 course tasting menu was unbelievable and the staff made us feel like royalty.

As for Manuel and his team, we couldn’t have asked for anything more.  He made us feel comfortable and confident, while guiding us through the photo session.  He was very active and energetic the entire time, making sure to get every shot and angle he could.

He seemed to be as excited to be taking our pictures as we were to be getting our pictures taken. Overall our Cabo wedding was everything we dreamed of and more, and we are so grateful for Manuel who helped make it that way.

Thanks,

Thursday – Sangheet – Cabo Del Sol GC:

Brenda Flores & Girish Gehani started their wedding celebration off with a fun & beautiful Indian Sangheet.  As part of the 3-night Indian wedding celebration, this is the night to really have fun, to party, to eat & drink, to celebrate with performances and dancing.  Most of the guests came in traditional Indian dress, and the decor was bright, vibrant and fabulous. They utlizied their theme colors of orange & fuchsia but also brought in modern brown to emphasize that this was more of a lounge party than a wedding celebration.  Lounge furniture and lighted tables surrounded the dance floor, and the couple had their own love seat where they sat to watch their friends and family as they performed dances for them in a Bollywood fashion.  The couple used lots of amber uplighting and a spotlight over the dance floor to set the mood for this lavish party.  What a way to welcome their guests!

FRIDAY – Sheraton Palapa:

Because Brenda is Mexican-American (and because the wedding was in Cabo!) the couple decided that their next event would have a Mexican theme. They invited all of their guests on Friday night for a casual but fun Mexican fiesta buffet.  The bar was set up under the palapa, Mexican serapes decorated the tables & the buffet, and a Mexican Trio serenaded guests as they ate & drank under the globe lighting.  Guests could come & go as they pleased and Girish & Brenda actually had a chance to really chat & visit with their guests.  The Fiesta ended at 9:30pm but that was not the end of the celebrations for the evening.  The couple and 125 of their “younger” guests than boarded buses and headed for the Baja Cantina on the Beach.  There they had what is called a “Youngster Party” directly on the sand, feet from the surf, with DJ music, late night cocktails & hor d’ouevres.

SAT:

After 2 nights of fantastic parties, it was time for the actual wedding celebration.  The ceremony was at the gorgeous Sheraton DeCortez Beach, where guests walked on coco mats to the private ceremony location, looking out at crashing waves, as the sun set behind them.  The bridesmaids, junior bridesmaids & flowers girls were gorgeous in their very colorful Indian sundresses, perfect for a Cabo wedding.  The bride was breathtaking in an ivory gown which she had specially enhanced with Indian accents.  The Mandap was decorated in the theme colors of orange, fuchsia & yellow.  A Classical Trio played traditional Mexican music for the ceremony.

Guests adjourned to the DeCortez terrace for drinks, while the couple and their bridal party of 23 continued to take photos on the beach and in the midst of some of the beautiful Sheraton gardens & architecture.

The reception was held in the Sheraton Ballroom, which had been transformed into a wonderland with the help of expert draping & lighting from PSAV on the Sheraton property.  Tables were draped in camel/gold linens with orange crush runners, accented with gold chargers, orange napkins, and table arrangements that included three vases of lilies, roses, and mums, all tied with gold ribbon.  With a great  DJ and two witty MCs, the guests were enthralled with toasts, a funny DVD production and lastly with dancing & wonderful food & desserts that lasted until 2am.

JENN & COLIN

SHERATON HACIENDA DEL MAR 27/06/2009

This couple had celebrated their destination wedding last week at the Sheraton Hacienda Resort and Spa. The Sheraton is a magnificent venue for destination weddings and the scenery and architecture offer exquisite backdrops for your Cabo wedding photography.

Karla Casillas, owner of a Baja Romance Wedding, coordinated this unique destination wedding.  It was a pleasure working with her and the other vendors working to give Jenn and Colin the best service possible. Here’s Karla’s review of the wedding:

(Click on the photos below to see full view)

“Jenn & Colin are a beautiful couple at heart (and they look great too!) and completely wonderful couple to work for, creating a perfect Destination Wedding.

Their wedding weekend was one I will always remember! They had all the best wedding professionals in Los Cabos, top notch!!

It was a pleasure to coordinate and direct this wedding from beginning to end; there is no wonder this wedding was a perfect one.

Every wedding vendor was the perfect match for this Wedding! They totally paid attention to detail to the final time line & Banquet Event Order. Wow!!

Manuel Burgoin photography captures all the perfect details, from bride getting dressed and the gentlemen ready for lineup, to the processional and most important moments during ceremony!

Also capturing all other elements such as “Main entrance of Bride and Groom”, “first dance”, “toasts”, “cake cutting” and fun group photos, I mean everything!!!

All of this with his special art in photography and details. The Sheraton Hacienda del Mar is one of my favorite resorts, it was just beautiful!”

“Manuel Burgoin is wonderful to work with, I love his eye for detail that makes his art in photography one of the kind!!! I have known Manuel for the longest time and know he understands the importance of delivering first class service to our clients.

There is no wonder why he remains in my top choices of vendors for your Los Cabos Destination Wedding. He is worth his weight in gold! He will capture your emotions in a still frame, and when you see your photos you will not only remember your day, but you will feel it all over again!!”

Marco and Maria had a traditional wedding in the Church of San Lucas, located near the main plaza in Cabo San Lucas. There is a a large bell in the stone archway that commemorates the church’s completion in 1746. The Church of San Lucas is a tribute to local history because its appearance has changed very little since its original construction.

Katie & Peter

Katie and Peter had their destination wedding earlier this month, at an elegant Mexican Restaurant called Puerta Vieja, here in Cabo San Lucas. If you’re looking into destination weddings in Los Cabos; Cabo San Lucas or San Jose del Cabo, consider a venue like Puerta Vieja and enjoy the magic of Cabo and reasonable prices. Its name meaning “old door” is significant to it’s 160 year old door from India; which compliments its warm decor and furnishings. This venue offers haute Mexican cuisine, and a remarkable view of the ocean and the arch. Puerta Vieja can host up to around 200 people and has a great upper level bar terrace that really worked well for the reception of Katie and Peter’s wedding.

“Manuel, Just wanted to let you know that we did receive the CD and the album, they are absolutly wonderful.

I truly enjoyed working with you and I thank you so much for giving us wonderful pictures to remember our day.  

You captured the moment perfectly.

Best of luck to you. Thanks,

Katie & Peter Shempp”

This concept of an elegant gown drenched in the ocean makes a glamourous addition to your wedding album.

Your trash the dress session will usually be done as an additional shoot after the wedding, almost as a declaration that the dress will not be used again.
It’s an alternative to suffocating your dress in plastic or boxing it away.

If you really can’t bare the thought of ruining your gown, you may want to consider buying a cheap dress, especially for a trash the dress session and some really beautiful photos!

Your Cabo wedding photography just isn’t complete without a trash the dress session and they’re so much fun.

I love trash the dress sessions, I think the style of photography is really gorgeous, and it is another unique memory of your wedding in Los Cabos.

Destination Weddings in Los Cabos; Cabo San Lucas and San Jose Del Cabo, are perfect for a beach photography session. There are miles and miles of white sandy beaches, so tell you’re Cabo Wedding Photographer you want to trash the dress.

I recently photographed this style savvy couple walking down the aisle.  The wedding was in April 2009, at the Cabo Azul Resort & Spa here in Los Cabos. Maybe that’s why they were so relaxed, a visit to the spa is always a great addition to your wedding preparations.

This location is perfect for destination weddings, and the resort has a wedding coordination team to help you plan all of the little details. Whether you want your wedding to be an extravagant event, or perhaps a simple and elegant beachfront ceremony, this location is as exciting and the occasion.  Cabo Azul is very exciting and exotic, and I loved working with Kristi and Brandon.

If you want to see Kristi and Brandon’s slideshow, Click the link below

Kristi and Brandon’s Cabo Azul Wedding

Destination Weddings make for an incredible wedding photography collection especially in Cabo. I’ve been a Cabo wedding photographer for many years now, and there is something very special and unique about Cabo weddings. Just look at these editorial shots they were giving me, wow! Here are a sneak preview of Kristi and Brandon’s Cabo wedding photography:

The Cabo Wedding Photographer

I think that the magic behind every outstanding wedding day is always found in the smallest of details. It takes hundreds of small, seemingly insignificant details to create your unique and unforgettable day, and I am committed to capturing each and every one of them. Your wedding day will pass by far too quickly, as many clients have mentioned to me over the years, so beautiful wedding photography is essential to preserve such a wonderful moment in time.
Click on the images below to see larger version

I want you to have these memories; the sparkle of your wedding rings, the vibrant color of your bouquet, a tear in the corner of the groom’s eye as his bride makes her way down the aisle. When my clients see their final product, they say “you didn’t miss anything”. Some of the most minute details can be great subjects, and a wonderful addition to the smiles and stolen moments of your wedding photography.

If you are considering a destination wedding Los Cabos; Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, has a rare natural beauty with all the amenities to ensure such a monumental occasion goes off without a hitch. And when you’re considering your Cabo wedding photographers, make sure you choose a professional, with a style reflecting your own, and how you want to remember this day.

I am passionate about my work and pay special attention to detail, because you can’t  print a memory! Your wedding day is such a monumental occasion and I will preserve all the fleeting moments and details.  I want you to have remarkable photos that fully express the feeling and significance of your wedding day.

The Cabo Wedding Photographer

I love shooting destination weddings, and working as a Cabo wedding photographer. I have had some really memorable clients over the years and am committed to upholding a very high standard for my photography, and capturing all the emotion and detail of your wedding day. I do most of my photography in Los Cabos; Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, but I travel to many destination weddings in other parts of the world. In terms of natural beauty and resort amenities, Cabo wedding photography is unrivaled in my opinion, and every wedding I take part in is truly unique. I hope you join us for your Cabo wedding soon, or let me know where your having your destination wedding.

I want to share some comments sent in by my clients about the work that we did for them on their wedding days and receiving their wedding photography packages:

“Dear Manuel,

“Hi Manuel,

Just wanted to thank you soooooo much for the pics they are amazing I can’t tell you how many people just love them. I have people asking me what was the name of the resort & WHO was your photographer.

Here are some of the comments people left on my facebook profile;

Your wedding pics are “AMAZING” Sabrina!…So glad to have finally seen them….What else can I say but “WOW”!!!!!xxxx

The photographer did an awesome job on the pictures! You guys look fantastic and they are all so natural. Glad we FINALLY get to see them! Congrats again. xoxo

So happy, thank you so much for always responding to all of my emails!

Sabrina Lachapelle”

“Manuel,

“Hello Manuel Burgoin,

I am Jeannie Bernard, Jordana Bernard’s mother. You took the pictures of her and Zak’s wedding at the Dreams in Los Cabos on November 29th. She just received your beautiful album and picture CD’s a few days ago. The wedding album you created for Jordana and Zak is just stunning.

After reviewing the pictures on the CD we both agreed that there was not a single picture you included in the album that we would have switched out or discarded. The choices you made are purely beautiful and all of the pictures tell the most lovely story of that beautiful day.

I don’t think I have ever seen a more perfect wedding album with the most amazing photos ever. The lighting and coloring of the photos is just stunning. Thank you so much for creating such beautiful memories that will last a lifetime for Jordana, Zak and the entire family!

Sincerely,
Jeannie Bernard”

“Manuel,

I still have not had a chance to look through ALL of the pictures, but everybody loves them!

We put the disc on a TV screen during our reception and it would take 2 hours and 45 minutes to watch all of them.

Kerry’s great aunt sat in front of the screen for 2 hours!!

Thank you so much for your incredible work and happy New Year to you!
Miriam”

“Manuel,

The pictures are amazing! (Just got them) You really know what you are doing! I can’t believe what you did. These pictures look like they belong in a magazine! Thank you so much. You really did a phenomenal job. I am so thrilled with the album. You picked the best pictures! I want to get married again now! hahaaa.

“Hola Manuel!

We are finally settled at home and back to work! I had to take a quick moment to say THANK YOU so so much for all of your hard work the day of our wedding. I’m wiggling in my seat just imagining the beautiful photos that will be coming our way! You are such a sweet person, and have the most amazing professional and calming presence. It was really a joy to share the day with you and your assistants.

Everyone commented on how hard you all worked! I’m so glad you were able to capture the feeling of our wedding, and the love between Andy and I. It was such a special and memorable day for us. I’ve never felt more happy and in love in my entire life…but I guess that’s the way it should be on your wedding! Once again, I’m so thankful for your hardwork and am so pumped to see the final results! We had a blast with the photoshoot!

I’m hoping you will be able to send a few “teasers” to tie us over for a while! The girls on the www.bestdestinationwedding.com forum have already started asking for them! I’ll check out the blog too since you mentioned you would put us on there. That will be fun to send to family & friends

We loved working with you! Thank you so much again! We’ll stay in touch
Amy Nyland & Andy Callis”

“Hi Manuel!

Thank you so much… they are truly amazing! We will send more thoughts later, after we have gone through them again… (and again… and again….)

“OH MY GOD!!! Manuel,

I’ve gotten no work done in the past hour drooling over these pictures! I havn’t even gotten to the full disc yet! I just went through the gorgeous leather book of prints and had to stop in my tracks and e-mail you! EVERY picture looks like it belongs in a magazine! I cannot believe how absolutely amazing these pictures are. I never in my wildest dreams imagined how beautiful they would turn out.

You more than exceeded all of my expectations. They are exactly the style I had in mind, and I can’t begin to pick a favorite. They are absolutely spectacular, and you deserve all the praise in the world for your hard work, artistic eye, and obviously amazing talent!

I’ll be sure to write back as soon as I get through the disc, as I’m sure there are even more special pictures I havn’t even seen yet!!! Great job! We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your attention to detail and hard work for these pictures and memories!

Thank you again,

Amy & Andy Callis”

“Hi Manuel,

I received the photo album and CD today. I was on my way out this afternoon and the DHL van just happened to be outside my door. I don’t have to tell you what amazing photos you produce. There is no praise I can give you that you haven’t heard already. I just love the pictures!!! Thank you. We will enjoy them for a life time.

I have a friend who is a journalistic photographer who for the past few years has also started photographing weddings. I pondered about having him photograph my wedding but decided against it. I took my first photography class with him. Can’t wait to show him your work.

I’ve already gone through the 2000 pictures, TWICE.

Looking forward to your reply.

Lisa

P.S. You’re not only creative in your photography, even your salutations are so endearing. I always look forward to them.”

“Hi Manuel,

I just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know how happy we are with our wedding photos and video. Your work is beautiful! I was so impressed with the presentation of it all too! The discs and their cases, and the beautiful 4×6 album with the metallic surface prints! Just gorgeous!

Your creativity and framing is outstanding… I love it all! Angel did a great job on video and the editing was fabulous. It was also so thoughtful and personalized to put some of the words from Ray’s note to me on screen at the beginning of the video…. so nice!!

Love the menu pages too! Thank you so much for capturing our emotions and the essence of the day with such beauty… you are excellent at what you do.

Thank you.

Dina (Santillo) Ortiz”

“The pictures arrived yesterday…they are amazing! Ryan and I are so happy with the way they turned out.

The color and clarity of all the pictures is unreal.

You were great to work with and we will definitely recommend you to anyone we know that is having a special occasion in Cabo.

Thank you so much!!
Ali”

“Hello Manuel,

We received our wedding pictures on Wednesday. We can’t thank you enough for getting them to us so quickly. Both families are so excited to see them! They absolutely look gorgeous!! We especially love the gazebo shots. Julie says it looks like we’re in a movie. ;o)

Also thank you so much for granting us reproduction rights. I was thinking of putting together one of those little iPhoto flip books for everyone that attended the wedding.

We are so grateful and appreciate all your hard work. Everything looks so beautiful.

Hope to see you around in Cabo! We will be back!

Sincerely yours,

Derek & Julie Hatfield”

“You are amazing. The album is beautiful .. It is the best I have ever seen…

“Hello Manuel!

I hope you are doing well! We have been showing your photos off to everyone we know! You have a lot of fans here now, if you ever decide to work in the states I emailed you a few days ago about changing some of the photos in the coffee table book layout. We love the book, but you have so many amazing photos, we found some we liked even better. I included the file names for the photos we prefer. Please let me know what you think, we value your opinion, you’re the artist! We look forward to hearing from you! Thank you for considering these options. Have a fabulous day!

Alana Serafini”

“Good evening Manuel,

Thank you so much for the wonderful coffee book.

We received the album today and I can’t put it down.

The pictures are stunning! You are very talented.

Thanks again for a great day.

Sincerely,
Lindsay & John”

“Hello Manuel

We received the photos and the dvd and everything was fabulous!!! I am so sorry I am just getting back to you, after we got back from our honeymoon things have just been crazy, with work, family, etc…. I guess it’s back to reality again! Thank you so much, everything is just fantastic, everyone who sees them is amazed. We are so very happy with your work, we knew we would be, you are so talented!

Kindest Regards,
Chelsea & Ryan Sackschewsky

“Manuel!

I love the photos you took of Lindsay and John. They arrived home this past Saturday night and I have spent hours looking at the CDs and showing off the book you sent back with them. They are absolutely gorgeous!

You even made the mother of the bride (that’s me) look good! We are so excited about the photos and have told everyone who will listen what a wonderful photographer you are. John and Lindsay said they enjoyed working with you and your assistant so much.

You captured our day so well and truly have given us lasting beautiful memories to cherish! Thank you, thank you, we look forward to the coffee table book!

Sincerely,
Debbie Hasen, mother of the bride”
