Who is the Best Photographer in the Cancun/Riviera Maya Area? PLEASE HELP!


Recommended Posts

I got married at Moon Palace Cancun back in October so have not visited the site much since then but having seen the title of this thread I felt I had to comment. If anyone is getting married at moon they will know all about tricky outside vendor policies but we went ahead and used Derek from photos in cancun. Got round the outside vendor thing by booking him a room for the night. We paid $1500 for the whole day and it was worth every penny. I added a review to his vendor site on here straight after the wedding. Photography was a huge thing for me as neither my husband or I are people that like posing for photos but we couldn't of been happier. At the end of the night he burned 4 discs with 2600 shots on, every thing he had taken that day which are images we now own. You also then communicate with him to arrange the number of edits you want. We only recently did this as it was so tough to decide as to us they all looked amazing as they were. Anyway, I have posted the link to his website and to my wedding specifically but if you have any questions please message me.

Hey Ladies,

 

I was married on November 8, 2011 at Barcelo Maya. We used Ivan Luckie & his wife, Anell..... They are 2 of the nicest people that we have ever met. So professional at what they do. They were absolutely everywhere on the day of our wedding and captured so much laughter & emotion throughout our day. We also did a TTD with them, hands down the most amazing experience I have ever had. Ivan was so patient with me (I was a floater at first, lol) our photos came out GORGEOUS.

 

If any of you are thinking about hiring him as your Wedding Photographer, you will NOT be disappointed.

I highly recommend Ivan Luckie! Here is my review and photos below...
 
Pros: Responds Quickly, Creative, Caring, Passionate, Loyal, Easy & Fun to Work With
Cons: None
 

We got married at Sun Palace Resort in Cancun, Mexico on 01/15/12. The one thing I was concerned about with the wedding planning was photography. That was the MOST important part to me. I did research on all the local photographers in Cancun for months... I read reviews, looked at tons of pictures, prices, sent many emails to photographers, etc. When I came across Ivan Luckie's work I was instanly impressed. He seems to have 90% good reveiws which is very impressive. Then when you begin to look at his work, you get blown away. He has a very creative style. He definitely has a eye for photography. He creates amazing photos and captures some really special moments. Not only is he a AWESOME photography but he is a really kind hearted man. We really got to know him when we rode in the car for 45 minutes to travel to the cenote to take trash the dress photos. We talked to entire ride and I was very impressed with how caring and loyal he is with his work. He doesn't do this to charge a ton of money, he truly does it for the art and to make his customers happy. He responds quickly to every email and answers every question you have. He never let me down. He will go out of his way to make you happy and do anything that is needed for your special day. If you book Ivan Luckie for your wedding and/or trash the dress photo shoot, you will NOT be disappointed. And I must say his specialty is trash the dress sessions. Our pictures turned out AMAZING and I've seen many more on his facebook page that he has done and they all are breathtaking.

Take a look at my pics...It was an amazing day and thanks to him I can remember it forever!

Hi , I just got married at Gran Caribe Real 02/14/2012. I loved my photographer and he had the pics ready before I left Mexico. Not many can do that. He was just amazing. His name is Nestor Meneses and can be reached at Nestorfotografia@gmail.com He is a bit less pricy and can have the photos done in less time.

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners.

I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
