FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

How much does a couples photoshoot cost in Mexico?+

Sessions range from $450 to $1,200 USD depending on duration, locations, and whether video is included. Most couples select a 90-minute golden-hour session delivering 80-120 edited images.

What is the best time of day for a couples photoshoot?+

Golden hour — the final 90 minutes before sunset — produces the most romantic light. In Mexico, that's typically 5:00-7:00 PM depending on season. Sunrise sessions offer deserted beaches and softer tones.

Can you photograph at our resort?+

Yes. We work at luxury resorts throughout all three destinations — Nizuc, Rosewood Mayakoba, Waldorf Astoria Los Cabos, and many more. We handle all vendor coordination in advance.

How far in advance should we book?+

Four to six weeks before travel, especially during peak season (November-April). For proposals requiring coordination, eight weeks or more is ideal. Last-minute inquiries always welcome.

What should we wear?+

Neutral and earth tones — whites, creams, sage, muted blues. Flowy fabrics create beautiful movement. Avoid logos and neon colors. We send a detailed style guide after booking.

Do you coordinate surprise proposals?+

Absolutely. We scout the location, plan timing, position discreetly, capture the reaction, and transition into celebratory portraits. We also coordinate flowers, musicians, or dining with resorts.

How long until we receive our photos?+

Preview set of 10-15 images within 48-72 hours. Complete gallery delivered within 2-3 weeks via private online gallery with download and print-ordering.

What if it rains?+

Brief tropical showers pass within 30-60 minutes and often produce the most dramatic skies. We monitor weather and adjust timing. If sustained weather prevents the session, we reschedule free of charge.

Can we combine sessions with other services?+

Yes. Pair a couples session with family portraits, maternity, or event coverage. Combination packages offer scheduling convenience and preferred pricing.
