ABOUT MEXICO
Mexico is one of the great destination wedding countries in the world.
Caribbean coast, Pacific cliffs, colonial cities, jungle cenotes. Every region shoots differently and every one is extraordinary.
I shoot across Mexico. Cliffside villas above the Arch at Los Cabos, barefoot ceremonies on the white sand of Tulum, cenote elopements in the jungle of the Yucatan, rooftop celebrations in Mexico City, intimate weddings in the colonial streets of San Miguel de Allende. Each region has its own light, its own character, its own sense of occasion.
Mexico moves fast and rewards preparation. The light shifts quickly and the settings are extraordinary. I know how to read a Mexican wedding day and make every location work at the hour it looks best.
My approach in Mexico
Cinematic, unhurried,
always honest.
I don't direct. I observe, anticipate, and disappear into the background until the light and the emotion align. Then I'm exactly where I need to be.
Mexico has some of the most varied light I work with. The Caribbean side is soft and luminous. The Pacific coast delivers a hard, golden sunset that lasts minutes. The high desert around San Miguel turns everything warm and ancient at dusk. I build every timeline around those windows so the setting does the work without you having to think about it.
My work has been featured in Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, The New York Times, Over The Moon, and Magnolia Rouge. I've been named one of Rangefinder's 30 Rising Stars of Wedding Photography.

"We got married in Tulum and JL felt like he had shot there a hundred times. The photos feel wild and intimate at the same time."
