You're in the home stretch - congratulations! I have read many good things about Las Caletas. I hope you have a wonderful wedding and find the vendors to make your day and trip incredible. Happy to help.

Hello. I completely agree with the person from Mishka Designs. It has taken my husband and I the better part of a year to fully comprehend how businesses work in Mexico (and I have formal business training AND my husband is Mexican!). Working in Mexico is indeed a whole other animal!! Having a coordinator with experience in Mexico and a working knowledge of Spanish can make things a little smoother for everyone. Happy to help. :-)

Hello Jax and Mark High res. photos are the equivalent to a negative. These days most (if not all) print labs accept CDs and DVDs as well as a number of other digital storage devices. The biggest difference between CDs and DVDs is the storage capacity - DVDs store more info. Yes, you can transfer photos from a DVD to your computer with ease. In terms of using your photos on Facebook, I would recommend 72dpi (standard for web) and 1024x768 pixels. Your photographer should be able to use their software program to resize your photos for web usage. Happy to help. (PS Love St. Catherines - have family just down the road. :-))

My vote is for contracts 100% of the time. I notice that your wedding date is quickly approaching. I hope you have a wonderful, stress free wedding! Best regards

It has been so interesting to read this thread. Thank you for starting it. When I started out shooting weddings in Canada, I gave my clients a disk of low res. images and charged for prints. My business model has changed quite a lot since starting a photographic business in Mexico - prehaps related to rapid turn around times (usually 24 hours-7 days) and a general change of business philosophy. I now include all edited high res. digital images in all packages so clients can print as often and as large as they want. I burn the photos to a DVD because of their higher capacity. In addition I include low res images so the client can easily email and upload photos to the internet for friends and family to view. Hope this helps.

Your wedding is one day before my birthday. :-) I am not familiar with Devin though I checked his work and it looks good. I think you will be happily surprised to discover that there are a few professional photographers from Canada and the US who are based in Mexico.

I hope have success in locating a photographer. Selecting a photographer who is bi-cultural and/or bi-lingual can be a valuable asset to your team.

I hope I don't get in trouble for this but I don't expect to get tipped. I set prices so that they are competitive in the local marketplace (in this case Mexico) and that sufficiently compensate me for my work. The idea of expecting or requiring a tip has honestly never crossed my mind as a professional photographer. I am interested to follow this thread to learn about other's opinions regarding vendor tipping. Interesting topic.

Hi East Coast Elizabeth. Wow! You have quite a following.... and you can add my name to the list! :-) West coast Elizabeth

I hope that you select the vendor that best suites your vision. Both photographer's work looks consistant. Selecting a photographer who is bi-cultural and/or bi-lingual can be a valuable asset. Happy to help in any way that I can.
