Wedding photography portfolio in Guadalajara
A look at the work of a documentary photographer
Weddings and studio work. Two languages, one way of seeing.
The approach
I don't direct the day. I watch it.
Almost everything you see here happened without me asking for it. My job is to anticipate: to know where to look when the bride's mother turns away, when a voice is about to break during the vows, the moment the dance floor stops being choreography and becomes a real party.
I came to photography from economics, and I think that is why I work this way. I learned to observe before intervening. After more than a hundred weddings in seven years, I know the pictures couples end up hanging at home are almost never the posed ones.
That does not mean leaving things to chance. I arrive early, scout the light in every venue, talk with the couple weeks beforehand to learn who is who, and shoot with duplicate gear and three backup systems. The spontaneity in the photograph rests on work you never see.
Where
Guadalajara, and wherever it takes
I work mainly across the Guadalajara metropolitan area: Zapopan, Tlaquepaque, Tonalá and Tlajomulco. These pages include weddings documented at La Victoria Eventos, La Cantera and Salón La Toscana, plus sessions at the Siglo XIV castle, the Degollado Theatre and Casa Pedro Loza.
Beyond the city I have photographed in Valle de Guadalupe, Arandas, Ajijic and much of the country, from the coast to small towns. If your wedding is elsewhere, tell me: travel is quoted separately and without surprises.
What you get
Beyond the photographs
Every booking is delivered in a private online gallery, built so you can share it with family without the images losing quality over WhatsApp. Albums are printed author's books, not catalogues: each one is designed around the sequence of your own day.
I document weddings, quinceañeras and studio sessions. You can see the wedding collections, the quinceañera collections or the studio and portrait sessions.
