Emporio Cancún is a hotel in the southern Hotel Zone, on the wide beaches of the open Caribbean. Book the last hour of daylight, or sunrise with small children. Our sessions start at 245 USD and arrive in one to three business days.
Emporio Cancún is in the southern Hotel Zone, near Playa Delfines and Punta Nizuc. Here is how we plan a session there, from the first frame on the property to the last light on the sand.

Where We Shoot
The beach. Wide sand at the end of the day.
The water's edge. We always finish at the shoreline, away from the pools and loungers, where the background is only sea and sky.
Nearby. Playa Delfines, the big public beach with the CANCÚN sign and high dunes, is close by for a second setting, and the El Rey archaeological site sits across the road from it.

The beach faces east, so evenings bring soft, even light on wide sand and sunrise lifts straight out of the sea.
How the Photographer Gets In
If you are staying at Emporio Cancún, the photographer comes in as your invited guest: give the front desk our name and the session time a day or two ahead, and we check in at the lobby. For a private session, a staying guest is very seldom asked for the outside vendor fee that resorts charge for weddings, but policies change, so we confirm it with the resort in writing before your date. If you are staying elsewhere, expect a day pass for the photographer. Our guide to bringing an outside photographer to a resort covers both cases.
