BN Fotografia

I live about 5 minutes down the road from Las Brisas in Ixtapa and photographed a wedding and private couple's shoot there in January 2011. It is really beautiful and very very spacious and private. There is a rock outcrop separating it from the main beach in Ixtapa. Las Brisas has an exclusive beach. If you are planning a beach wedding, it might be useful to check the tidal charts closer to your wedding date as the tides vary greatly throughout the year. I'd be happy to help with further questions. The best way to get ahold of me these days is via email - [email protected] Happy planning!

Hi there Ixtapa - Zihuatanejo is a younger version of Acapulco and a much, much younger version of Puerto Vallarta. Zihua is especially laid back and you can pretty much walk everywhere you would need to go. My husband and I have been based in Zihuatanejo for about 3.5 years and we really love it..... :-) Elizabeth

Thank you Mariana! It was such a treat to provide photographic and video coverage for you and Luis. Eli BN Fotografia

Welcome to the forum!

Looking forward to seeing you on Feb 18!! Your big day is almost here! Yeh!

Just finished photographing three weddings, parts of which took place at the Tides, and have a wedding which will take place entirely at the Tides in May 2010. I also live in Zihuatanejo where The Tides is based, know the hotel and how to get things done in the area. I posted a highlight video from one of the weddings which has a few photos from The Tides. See BN Fotografia - The Tides - video - the top level shot is of guys jumping. Also, you can see some photos from a different wedding (parts of which took place at The Tides) at BN Fotografia - The Tides - photos . I'll be posting more photos from The Tides weddings later this week. The Tides is a great hotel and there are a few other options available locally with a similar caliber. The easiest way to contact me is at [email protected] . If you have specific questions and I'd be happy to help you.

Hello Jamie Welcome to the forum! My husband and I live in Ixtapa - Zihuatanejo and have photographed weddings in many venues in the area - see BN Fotografia - Zihuatanejo - Ixtapa photographer. Happy to help.

Noticed that there are a couple of question re: the location of Zihuatanejo (Zihua) - it is 3 hours up the coast from Acapulco.

Welcome to the forum Christine! I have photographed three weddings recently, parts of which took place at The Tides and have one more booked for May 2010 which will take place entirely at The Tides... oddly enough for a client named Christie! For a moment, I thought you were my client Christie! In another of your postings, I posted links where you can see photos and video taken at The Tides. Happy to help.

Oh, by the way, I posted a highlight video from one of the weddings that I mentioned (part of which took place at The Tides). The highlight video also has some photos from the Tides. See BN Fotografia - The Tides - video - the top level shot is of guys jumping. Also, you can see some photos from one of the weddings at BN Fotografia - The Tides - photos . I'll be posting more photos from The Tides weddings later this week.

My husband and I had the great pleasure of photographing Amós and his beautiful sweet bride Yamile - truly an enjoyable experience!! I have posted some photos from their private couple's shoot and wedding at Yamile and Amós - Ixtapa - Zihuatanejo. Happy to help.

Thank you so much for your comments Yamile and Amós! It was such a pleasure to get to know you and to photograph a couple that is so clearly, and completely, in love!! Your family and friends were also wonderful! My husband and I felt very lucky to be including in your wedding day! Your wedding coordinator, Dey, and I still talk about how wonderful you were to work with!! For all the photo junkies on the forum (that means pretty much everyone :-) :-)), you can see a slideshow from Yamile and Amós' wedding at Yamile and Amós - Ixtapa - Zihutanejo

Hi Scot! Happy New Year!! It's your friendly photographer Elizabeth. I have some great news for you.... I have just completed extensive research into legal marriage in Mexico, aka the civil ceremony, and submitted an article for the February issue of the print magazine Another Day in Paradise - Another Day in Paradise The online version should be available within the first week of February. If you have any questions after reading the article, we are happy to help you. Please pass my regards to Emily.

Hello Jessica Congratulations! Zihua is a great place to get married, and to live! My husband and I have been based here for 3 years in March and we love it. I am familiar with the venues you are considering and would be happy to recommend a few more. If you are interested in getting together while you are in town, feel free to email me to set up a time and place. Happy to help.

Hi there. If you would like I can organize a lady to come to your hotel room to do manicures and pedicures. She is a local friend of mine who does a really good job but doesn't speak a word of English. I write this as I admire my little pink toes nails that she painted for me a couple of days ago. :-) Feel free to email at [email protected] to discuss details. Happy to help.
