I help thoughtful, down-to-earth, educated professionals who love Oaxaca make natural, fun, timeless, and true memories as they celebrate their commitment to building a life together with the family and friends they care about the most.
So you decided a standard reception hall wedding back home wasn’t for you. You didn’t want the same old drab walls and too familiar surroundings, the glorified cafeteria food masquerading as a wedding banquet, the underwhelming responses from your guests when you ask if they’re having a good time.
You want to celebrate your wedding somewhere that has a strong sense of place, where the venue has so much character it is a character in your story, helping give your guests an unforgettable experience.
And, besides, you come from two different cities, and maybe even speak two different languages, and want a place where everyone invited will be excited to get out of their comfort zone, to get out of the ordinary and into the extraordinary.
As someone who got married in Oaxaca myself, and has over thousands of hours across the past 17 years capturing the memories couples like you have entrusted me with, I get it and I am here to be a part of making your vision for your wedding day come true.
What inspires me is the love my clients share with each other. I want to capture it in a way they’ll be excited to share with friends and family the moment they see their photos, and in a way they’ll treasure for the rest of their lives.

We are so so glad Douglas captured our wedding day!
Douglas is very kind, flexible, communicative, and talented. While we did get some formal and posed shots, his candid shots were some of my absolute favorites. His tonal quality is warm and colorful, great composition, and just an overall great value. He’s also very familiar with the area so in any given location he captured perfect moments. Because of his skills we now have absolutely stunning photos that bring us joy every time we look at them!

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.
I am grateful for the following awards and features that have honored my work over the years.
