A good photoshoot at Now Emerald Cancún comes down to two choices: the hour and the stretch of beach. This guide covers both, plus how access works for guests.

Where We Shoot
The beach. Wide southern sand near Punta Nizuc.
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
Access is simple for guests of Now Emerald Cancún. Put the photographer's name on your reservation at the front desk with the time of the session, and we meet you in the lobby. Resorts usually reserve their outside vendor fee for weddings, so a private session for a staying guest is very seldom charged, though we always confirm the current rule in writing first. Visitors who are not staying at the resort normally need a day pass; this guide explains how it works.
