Adventure Photographers will still be the resort photographer.  They are great!

We booked Ivan in May also.  Ay yay yay....  I hope everything works out. Before Ana left, she called my travel agent and assured her that everything we had already agreed to would be honored. I'm going to try not to worry about it.  If anyone hears more updates, please write a post about it. Thanks!!!  Hopefully Ivan will work things out with Gabriela this week.

Is this going to be okay with the new wedding coordinators? 

 

I'm not 100% sure, but from my understanding, you can bring your own photographer as long as they are guests at the resort.  Otherwise, you will have to pay an outside vendor fee.

Girls - I heard from Ivan.  He said all DJ services booked through Ana and Yazmin will still be honored.  Not sure what's happening in the future....that's probably what he's meeting with Gabriela about - and maybe to confirm everything that's already booked.  Try not to freak out!!

I heard from both Ivan and Gabriela - looks like everything Ana had confirmed will be honored! YAY!

 

As for the outside photographer, I had told Ana back in September of last year that I would not book the resort unless I could bring Elizabeth Medina and she wrote me an email that said "I will make that exception for you".  So I believe you're right, if they're guests at the resort (you're bringing them from home) it's not an issue, but if you're bringing someone in that's local (or somewhat local) - I would check and get permission before putting a deposit down on the photographer.

Yes, this is just fine. You don't have to use the resort photographers.

And as someone else mentioned, it's only if you are bringing in someone local for the day that there seems to be any issue.

Does anyone have Claudia Rodriguez's contact info?  I am trying to decide between the hotel photographer and her.  Also,, if anyone has experience with her or could share her pictures, I would appreciate the feedback.
