Este set de fotos es muy especial para mi. Desde la primera vez que oí hablar del Castillo Surreal de Edward James en XIlitla, en la Huasteca Potosina, quize ir a a conocer ese lugar. Después, cuando me volviví fotógrafo quize ir a hacer fotos a ese lugar. Cuando me hize fotógrafo de bodas, quiza hacer un Trash The Dress en ese lugar, el día finalmente llegó.

Quiero darles las gracias de una manera unica, enorme y especial a Pau y Alex por confiar en mí, en este pseudo-proyecto personal que se volvió una aventura fantástica para los que asistimos, gracias por decir que sí a la idea, gracias por poner fé ciega en que esta era una idea muy chingona y que las fotos iban a ser únicas, espero así haya sido. Gracias, otra y mil veces, por confiar en mí Pau y Alex.

En cuanto a XIlitla y Las Pozas de Edward James, no puedo decir con palabras precisas lo bello que es este lugar, como leí de un buen amigo, en Xilitla, uno vuelve a creer en la magia, en la fantasía. Sin duda, uno de los lugares mas hermosos y mágicos que tiene nuestro país, nuestro bello México…

This set of photos is very special for me. Since the first time I heard about the Surreal Castle of Edward James, located in Xilitla, in the middle of the jungle of the Huasteca Potosina, I wanted to knew this place. Then I became a photographer, and I wanted to photograph this place. Then I became a wedding Photographer, and I wanted to do a Trash The Dress session there someday, the day finally came.

I want to say in a very special way, Thank You, to Pau and Alex for trusting in me, for trusting in this pseudo-personal project of mine that became a whole adventure for all us who were present in the session. Thanks for saying ‘YES’ to the idea of it, for having a blind faith in the project and the idea you were going to get some unique kick-ass photos, I hope they turned out that way. Thank you again and again, for trusting in me Pau and Alex.

On the other hand, about Xilitla and Las Pozas from Edward James, there is very little that I could say with words to describe the beauty of this place, as I read from a good friend, in Xilitla you believe in magic again, in fantasy. There is no doubt, this place is one of the most beautiful and magical spots from our country, our immensely beautiful Mexico…

Tengo la gran fortuna en mi trabajo de conocer lugares maravillosos, parejas maravillosas y compartir momentos muy intimos e irrepetibles. Les quiero dar las gracias a Brenda y Paco por juntar todas estas caracteristicas, que hacen de mi chamba una aventura increible, en una sola boda, en la suya. Magica!
Mil gracias a mi hermanazo Ric Grajeda de REELOVE por asistirme de 2nd shooter en esta boda y ayudarme a completar la historia de Brenda y Paco de una manera increible y a Sary Suarez de EVENTTO por hacer magia con su trabajo!

I have the great fortune in my job to know spectacular places and spectacular couples and to share with them very intimate and strong moments with them. I want to say a huge Thank You to Brenda and Paco for putting together all these things, who make my job an unreal one, in just one single wedding: theirs. Pure magic!
Thanks so much also to my great friend Ric Grajeda from REELOVE for giving me a hand as a second shooter and getting some great clicks from Brenda and Paco’s story and to Sary Suarez from EVENTTO for doing magic in her work all the time!

Venue: Hotel Quinta Real Zacatecas

This is the beauty of Zacatecas, the couple and wedding guests celebrate the night before, dancing to the rithm of ‘banda’ and drinking Mezcal in the ‘Callejoneadas’

This new show of light and projections at night in the streets of Zacatecas is pure magic, awesome moments…


















I love to have 2nd shooters that push my creativity and can kick my butt with their shots, I loved this shot by Ric:







Ric’s wide open shot of the awesome Cathedral:

I truly believe that The Quinta Real in Zacatecas is one of the most beautiful wedding venues in the whole country. Romantic, unreal…

Bodas como la de Mariel y Johnny son las que a veces se disfrutan más. Por causas de fuerza mayor, toda su boda tuvo que cambiar de locación y en solo 3 días prácticamente se hizo una nueva boda, partiendo de cero. No cabe duda que las grandes bodas las hacen las personas que forman parte de ellas, las parejas, las familias, los invitados, los momentos, la boda de Mariel y Johnny fué una de esas grandes bodas…

Weddings like Mariel and Jhonny’s are one of a kind, the kind of weddings that you enjoy even more. For some complicated reasons beyond the control of anybody, Mariel and Johnny’s wedding changed locations and the whole wedding was planned from scratch again in just 3 days. There is no doubt that the greatest weddings are great because of people who is part of them, the couple, the families, the guests. Mariel and Johnny’s wedding was one of those great weddings…


















































Very rarely I submit a series of shots, but I couln’d resist to do so with this one…

I wonder what they were chatting about…
