Erika & Tavish

Hotel Quinta Real, March 19th & 20th, 2027

Welcome/bienvenidos, I’m Douglas Favero, an American Photographer and Videographer in Oaxaca. 

Offering photo, video, drone, and vintage film 

blending …

the

raw emotion

of documentary

the

polish

of editorial

and the

soul

of fine art

Unlike commercial studios that send a team of strangers, or photographers who dabble in video, I have been at work mastering the art of multi-medium storytelling for years, so that you can receive seamless editorial and cinematic coverage, without ruining your intimate vibe.

"We keep receiving comments about how beautiful our photos are."

quinta real wedding photography by douglas favero

Douglas was an incredible photographer to work with for our wedding.

We are a Mexican American couple (my family is English-speaking and my husband’s is Spanish), so it was wonderful that Douglas was able to communicate with all of our family and friends in both English and Spanish.

The photos from the wedding are PHENOMENAL.

We keep receiving comments about how beautiful they are.

Douglas was easy to communicate with remotely and once we arrived in Oaxaca.

We cannot recommend Douglas enough.

WORKING with Douglas Favero Photography

How I help you

get what you're looking for

oaxaca wedding grand fiesta americana, photography by douglas favero

I am a native English speaker fluent in Spanish

You won't have to worry about any confusion between your photographer and your friends and family.

An Abundance of Photos

Rest assured you will have your choice of incredible moments throughout the day to fill up your walls and share with friends & family & future generations.

The Intimate Vibe Preserved

Whether doing photo & video by myself or with my team, avoiding a production crew vibe is a top priority, so you can relax, enjoy the day, and keep the intimate feeling you dreamed of.

The Highlight Film

I use my intuition and cinematic eye throughout the day to capture those fleeting moments that are best experienced in motion to create a sizzling, cozy highlight film for you to enjoy again and again.

Well-traveled

I have brought my camera with me to 4 continents. I love being in new places and am inspired by the amazing photographic opportunities every destination wedding presents to me. 

I KNOW OAXACA

I've lived here for almost twenty years and had my own wedding here. I feel at home with those who love Mexico, whether they're from here or elsewhere. (Also, I know the good spots.)

TRIAL BY FIRE

I'm backed up by 16 years of couples trusting me with the most important day of their lives in all kinds of challenging circumstances.

ATTENTION TO DETAIL

I know the care you put into every detail that makes up your experience on your wedding day and I'm here to make sure you can revisit them forever.

natural & artistic

FREQUENTLY
asked QUESTIONS

Q:

We love your work and want to book. What is the next step?

A:

Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need to have a quick consult call, after which you’ll sign your contract and make a 40% deposit. Get in touch via the contact form!

Q:

How many photos will we receive?

A:

Galleries typically include 100 images per hour. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding. Your online gallery will come loaded with edited, high-resolution images you can print and share. 

Q:

When do you charge travel fees for weddings?

A:

Anywhere outside of the Oaxaca City area may incur travel fees. At the moment, I am keen on building my portfolio of weddings outside of Oaxaca, so if that’s you, act fast and you may get some or all of the travel fees waved.

Q:

Do you work alone or with a team?

A:

I specialize in solo hybrid coverage. That is, I am your sole photographer and videographer. I prioritize photo, with some video at key moments to create a highlight film for you. 

However, your collection can be customized to suit your needs. For larger events, you may request that I bring one or more of my vetted, experienced second shooters (for photo or video).
