My wife and I just used Octavio Montes (info -a- octaviomontes.com) for our wedding. I don't remember where we found him, but it might have actually been this site... He was very good. It was late on a cloudy date with poor lighting, but he and his partner really went nuts circling us with the flash trying to get great shots. I used to be a photo nerd myself and it was obvious he knew what he was doing. He spent maybe a week editing the pictures afterwards and they came out great. There was another wedding in our hotel the next night and their photographer barely moved so I know Octavio must be one of the better ones in the area and his rates were very good. If you need any more info send me a side e-mail: louloizides -a- yah00. I attached a random pic from the wedding (hopefully my wife won't get too upset that I posted it... ). On a side note - the hotel originally tried to get us to use their photographer and threatened to charge us an extra fee if we brought our own. But when I pushed to see the guy's portfolio they gave us a website that looked like it was put together in 20 min using a template and the pictures weren't very good. I wouldn't be surprised if it was someone's cousin. Based on that experience, I would always try to go outside the hotel for a photographer.
