I highly recommend Ivan Luckie! Here is my review and photos below... Pros: Responds Quickly, Creative, Caring, Passionate, Loyal, Easy & Fun to Work With Cons: None We got married at Sun Palace Resort in Cancun, Mexico on 01/15/12. The one thing I was concerned about with the wedding planning was photography. That was the MOST important part to me. I did research on all the local photographers in Cancun for months... I read reviews, looked at tons of pictures, prices, sent many emails to photographers, etc. When I came across Ivan Luckie's work I was instanly impressed. He seems to have 90% good reveiws which is very impressive. Then when you begin to look at his work, you get blown away. He has a very creative style. He definitely has a eye for photography. He creates amazing photos and captures some really special moments. Not only is he a AWESOME photography but he is a really kind hearted man. We really got to know him when we rode in the car for 45 minutes to travel to the cenote to take trash the dress photos. We talked to entire ride and I was very impressed with how caring and loyal he is with his work. He doesn't do this to charge a ton of money, he truly does it for the art and to make his customers happy. He responds quickly to every email and answers every question you have. He never let me down. He will go out of his way to make you happy and do anything that is needed for your special day. If you book Ivan Luckie for your wedding and/or trash the dress photo shoot, you will NOT be disappointed. And I must say his specialty is trash the dress sessions. Our pictures turned out AMAZING and I've seen many more on his facebook page that he has done and they all are breathtaking.

Hey there! I'm so glad to hear you got amazing wedding photos. Congrats! I have talked to David Pena but I have been debating on Ivan Luckie. This is such a hard decision. Do you have some more wedding photos that I can view? Thanks for you time.

Thanks for all your responses and advice. I have been really stuggling with choosing a photographer. I was orginally going to pick Juan Navarro but a couple of his recent weddings gave me doubts. Now I'm looking at Ivan Luckie. Has anyone used Ivan Luckie or heard about his work? Photography is extremely IMPORTANT to me. I see all these amazing and beautiful wedding pictures and all these great reviews. I just want those same experiences and amazing photos. I'm just so scared of making the wrong choice. Also, it's hard to choose a photographer when every single one of them ALL have great reviews. I haven't read a bad review yet. It makes it so difficult. Oh and the TTD photos are so amazing but I'm coming home and having a reception. Have you ever seen someone use another dress just so they can do TTD?

How accurate are the ratings for photography? What puts them at the top or the bottom? I'm looking at Ivan Luckie which is rated number 3 but does that really mean he is the top in the cancun area? I'm so nervous of making a mistake with photography.

I'm getting married at Sun Place Resort in Cancun on 01-15-12. I thought I was set on booking Juan Navarro but now I'm beginning to think I might regret that decision. I've read many great reviews on him and he responds to my emails in a timely manner but I've noticed a lot of his pictures are bad shots of people or have shadows on their faces. I don't want to feel like I need to edit or fix a professionals photos. I'm so torn and confused on what to do. I know I need to book someone soon for our wedding date. Our budget is $1500. I want at least 300 or more photos. I want a CD or DVD with all the photos and printing rights. I just really want amazing and beautiful high quality pictures. Please help me if you can.... All the top photographers suggested on this site are waayyyy too expensive for us. I know you get what you pay for but I'm really hoping I can find a blessing with an amazing photographer. Pictures mean the world to me!

Thanks for your response. Yeah, I haven't heard any bad feedback on the hair stylist at the resort. I was planning on taking a photo of the hair style I want also. All we can do is hope for the best. I haven't heard of Octavio. Does he have a website? We're having a small wedding also. Everything is so exciting. I look forward to hearing more about your wedding planning and how everything turns out. Yours is right around the corner. Woo Hoo! Are you doing the complimentary package or did you purchase a package? If you purchased a package, do you know how it works with the 36 photos that are included if you bring in an outside photographer? Have you started communicating with Cyntia (wedding coordinator) yet? She can be a little hard to get ahold of at times. Well I wish you the best with everything!

Hello Ladies, Congrats on your weddings and good luck with all the planning. It has been fun so far! I can't figure out what would be best for my fiance to wear to our ceremony. I have seen white linens and ivory suits. My dress is an off white color. I thought an ivory suit would look good but some people said not to have him wear a suit on the beach. And then what about shoes? I'm not big on mens feet. LOL! I've seen some barefoot and some with shoes. What do yall think looks best? And what do yall plan to have yalls men wear? If you have been previously married on the beach, I would love to see a picture of you and your hubby on your wedding day ;-) Thanks, ~Tara~

Thank you for the response. Yeah I thought most of that stuff was included. So.. do most people use music if they have a beach wedding? I didn't even think about using any until I seen your post. Hmm... I don't know if it even makes a difference or not? I have never been to a beach wedding. As for our reception, I think we're going to just do dinner at one of the restaurants. We aren't really having a reception since it will just be us and our parents. We plan to have one when we get home. So I don't think I need any decorations, etc.
