Destination Wedding Riviera Maya, Mexico

November 18, 2019
Featured  ·  Photography  ·  Wedding

These two had such an incredible wedding experience planned and I can’t even express how honoured I was that they chose me to be a part of it. We started with their elopement and vows near home and celebrated with their family on the beach of Riviera Mayan, Mexico.

We celebrated the legalization of their marriage in front of Rogers Arena. I was a little surprised when Monique first mentioned the location but once I learnt that that’s where they first met face to face on their first day I was instantly in love! It was cool and crisp afternoon but so filled with intimate love that we forgot about the weather and listened while they committed their love to one another.

One month later we were flying through the clouds to sunny Mexico for their wedding. They had about 50 of the friends and family there to celebrate their marriage! There were monkeys swinging in the trees and the lulling of the waves in the background of their ceremony. Saying their vows overlooking an incredible Cenote was something out of this world! We then danced around the resort without a care in the world other than the two of them and it was incredible! The vibe from everyone wishing them congratulations and all the children thinking she looked like a princess was so genuine.

Their reception was originally supposed to be in one of their typical restaurants but they were so fortunate and were able to get a cancellation on their first choice venue of an option roof top oasis. We got to toast during sunset and they had their first dance under the stars. It was truly incredible filled with so many memories I will cherish forever!

Let's freeze this moment in time, together

Your wedding day is a masterpiece, and while the f Your wedding day is a masterpiece, and while the flowers and the dress are breathtaking, it's the quiet, timeless details that carry the weight of your history.

Can we talk about the heirloom pieces? 👇

The Real Story Behind the "Stuff"
For my couples, the details aren't just for show. They're tangible links to the past, little moments of legacy you can feel. I'm talking about:

The delicate heirloom jewelry—maybe worn by your grandmother or great-aunt—that makes you feel wrapped in generations of love. (A moment to pause, breathe, and connect.)

The family Bible, passed down for decades, signed on your wedding day—a reminder that your story is part of something much bigger.

Pain Point: Are you worried these meaningful details will be rushed or missed in the whirlwind? I promise you, they won't be.

My Promise to You
As your photographer, I don't just snap a picture of these items. I treat them with the reverence they deserve, knowing they represent your history and the start of your new legacy. I believe in capturing that quiet, timeless moment—the soft light on your rings, the gentle fold of a treasured page.

This is where your memories become more than just fleeting moments; they become heartfelt, tangible heirlooms for your own children someday.
So often, parents come into a family session think So often, parents come into a family session thinking it’s all about the kids — but I always love to take a few moments to focus on you two.

Because before there were little ones, there was your story — the foundation that everything else was built on.
