We went to town wanting to go through all of the nice spots for pics and there are a few places you can go and its not too far from each other, basically the touristy places are the best in this case, there isnt really old homes here, its basically all kind of new so you will have a hard time finding old homes, what you will find are nice spots here and there, here are a few pics.

The view of the marina of Cabo San Lucas from up in the air.		Another nice place where you can eat great food and also maybe take a few pics for an engagement shoot, hoping its not too crowed that day.		The famous Arch or Los Cabos, located in the town of Cabo San Lucas.

At the corridor you will basically find hotels, several of them and a few beaches where you can have a TTD that are swimmable, these beaches are; Chileno Beach, Santa Maria, Lovers beach and there is another one on the other side of Sunset Da Monalisa, but it does not really have a name, its not very well known but its pretty nice as well.

Chileno beach, this is one of the only places in the corridor that you can use for photos that has rock formations and that is swimmable.		This is another set of photos from the same Chileno Beach location with another TTD (trashing of the dress) shoot, it has alot to offer and its open to anyone.		Another great location at the Corridor is at the beach of the Sheraton Hotel, anyone can go there, you have to go inside Cabo del Sol and this location is next to the Sheraton.

~ The more color, interesting architecture & mature vegetation the better for your images.

After the ceremony, I will take the bride and groom around the resort for some newlywed images. A couple key elements that I will look for in order to create fantastic shots are color, interesting light, and architecture. The more of this we can find around the resort, the better!!

Consider as well that the ocean is a great backdrop! Although the resort aesthetics can offer some colorful and unique images, it will not make or break the quality of the shots. After all, I am trained to find beauty where it may not be obvious at first glance.

~ Very important... Some resorts in the Mayan Riviera absolutely do not allow external photographers on the resort premises.

Each resort has different rules regarding wedding photographers. Most resorts in the Mayan Riviera have implemented a special rate that they charge to allow photographers to enter the resort. This fee can range from $100 to $500 USD. It is commonly referred to as a Day Pass or External Service Provider Fee. Please check with your wedding coordinator to find out what their requirements are for outside photographers.

Some resorts in the area do not allow any outside photographers. Resorts with these strict policies have sometimes allowed us if we are booked into their hotel for the night. Please confirm this with your wedding coordinator, as you will be responsible for ensuring the photorapher(s) and assistant(s) have proper permission to be on the premises to shoot your wedding.

Important notes:

* There are some resorts that absolutely will not allow external vendors to access the resort.

* My package prices do not include the cost for my assistant and I to enter your resort. This is an added expense that is out of my control.

A list of the resorts we've attended and their External Photographer Policies can be found by Clicking Here.

~ The minimum age for adult only is usually around 16-18.

"Adult only" hotels have a much quieter, relaxing atmosphere than the ones where kids are allowed. The quality of rooms, restaurants and service are a "cut above" the rest. They are tailored to adults who want to enjoy the beauty and calmness of their surroundings without distractions.

Of course if you have a flower girl or ring bearer joining you the choice is obvious. These resorts usually have two pools: one with games and music for the younger crowd as well as another, more secluded, adults only pool so everyone can enjoy the vacation in their own way.

~ Privacy is usually a big concern among brides, whether they are being married in their home town or travelling to a tropical destination.

The Mexico destination couple may envision their wedding on a remote section of beach sharing their vows with only each other, their guests, and Mother Nature. If this sounds like you, you will need to be very careful when choosing a resort.

Although some resorts can offer exactly what you are looking for, others just can't offer as much privacy. For example, hotels that are found within Playa Del Carmen are sharing the beach with many other resorts, as well as the locals (like us!). These beaches get very busy and beach weddings tend to attract a lot of uninvited guests. Such resorts may offer a garden gazebo or more private location away from the busy beach.

Sand is also a consideration. If you imagine yourself barefoot as you approach your soon to be husband, then sand is the perfect choice. High heals... not so conducive to sand.

Sun or shade? Gazebos offer shade for you and your guests. That Mexican sun can get pretty hot but it's probably part of the reason you chose to get married here! Don't worry, even when the ceremony location is in full sun the wedding coordinator will keep your guests in the shade until the ceremony is ready to begin.

~ Is it important for you to have a private area available for your reception and dance?

Not all wedding packages offer a private location for your party afterwards. Be sure to inquire about the available options, capacity of each, and whether or not there will be extra fees associated to booking them.

~ There can be multiple weddings per day at the resort you choose.

If other brides have booked prior to you, they will have first pick of the time and location of their events. Some resorts have organized their packages in a way that the schedule for each wedding will flow nicely and not have too much "wasted" time between the ceremony and reception. The earlier your day begins the more filler you will need to keep your guests entertained. Even a perfect schedule for the day, will have you worn out by the end of it. If possible, make sure your times are solidified at the time of your booking.

In the end, whichever resort you choose, the important thing to remember is that you are marrying your best friend and your family has travelled from far and beyond to witness this important milestone between the two of you. Have fun, be yourself, and the rest will fall into place!
