Locations

Hello my dear brides, grooms and friends. I know how hard it is to choose a location and even harder still if you don’t know the place. In this section of my blog I’ll try to help you choose between many different locations in Los Cabos; Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, and a few other places around Mexico. I have been working as a Cabo wedding photographer for many years now and have photographed numerous weddings each of these locations. As a professional in the destination wedding industry who recognizes service, quality and rare beauty, here are my favorite venues. Our first tour will be around the beautiful hotel called:
