Cara & Emmanuel — Wedding at Martoca Beach Garden

June 4, 2021 · Puerto Vallarta

The wedding at Martoca Beach Garden of Cara & Emmanuel was a great time. Although the summer sky wasn't as clear as it is in November, we had a cloudless evening that allowed me to play with the reflections of the pool in the sunset. But before speaking of the night, I should mention that the day was full of emotions — from Emmanuel's tears, to his father's, to the strong hugs Cara gave to her new family. Those are the unique moments we like to remember forever.

It is said that men should not cry, but that's not true — and how nice it is to see a man weep for love in his vows, to see that every word transcends. It is not easy to witness and capture those tears; as a photographer I have to set my own emotions aside, let them reach me, and transform them into the strength to get closer to the core of a person and do my job as a family historian.

Another detail that left me a special memory is Cara's twin. It is not common to have a wedding with twins, and I must confess it was fun. It was a real pleasure to work for Cara & Emmanuel, an exceptional and very loving couple — so easy to get good shots when so many emotions are present. Our best wishes at the start of their life together!
