Barbara & Manny - Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Just got back from photographing a wedding down in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Must say I had a really great time and got some even greater images. A big thanks to Barbara & Manny (bride & groom) for making this all possible. Another thanks to John, my long time friend and fellow photographer on this trip for all his hard work and planning that went into this. John and I have teamed up to photograph destination weddings under the name h2 Weddings. With both of our styles and backgrounds we bring a very unique style to the world of wedding photography. Looking forward to shooting many more weddings with John.
Out of respect to our client I will only be showing some of the detail shots from this trip.


Me & John scouting out locations.

Flying into Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Not a bad view.

The wedding party stayed at the Palmilla Resort
which was just awesome.
Everyday, throughout the day every employee greets you with this
hand gesture.

The wind was really not helping capture the invitation shot.
Persistence paid off in the end though...

At the Palmilla Resort you don't need to walk far to
capture a great image.

Palmilla Courtyard

Both of these guys were not going to budge an inch.
I gradually got within a few feet of each of them to get the shot.

Wedding party went out jet skiing and John and I covered
the action by land and sea.

John with a water housing to capture images from the water.

Night out on the town.

Breakfast of Champions!

Photographed the rings outside with some pillows that were close by,
thought they added a nice splash of color to them.

Final details.

Gift from the wedding planner (Rob) to the groom.
All the groomsmen were suppose to sign it,
something tells me it was probably consumed.

There were a few drinks poured.

Trying to order from Domino's
and you don't speak Spanish is hard, but, doable.

Cocktail?

Warm up jam session for me.

Floral details.


Shot of the rings.

The Chef's at Palmilla were more than
helpful and we actually had a good time
in the kitchen. All the employees were excited to
take a group photo.


A smorgasbord of candy and fruits were on display after
the wedding which disappeared very quickly.

Some images from the venue.
Rob from, http://www.laurelsevents.com/, transformed a plain
room into a vibrant colorful atmosphere.
Must say he does wonders on all levels of the wedding.

Watching this place come alive took some serious time.
Hundreds if not thousands of candles had to be all lit, one at a time.
