Hi! I’m Ches!
My journey with photography began at the tender age of 10 when my grandfather placed a camera in my hands. From that moment, I knew I had found my true calling. Photography quickly became my passion, and I dedicated myself to capturing the profound beauty and emotion of weddings.
In 2012, I realized my dream of merging my two deepest passions: photography and unconditional love. This dream took flight in Playa del Carmen, within the paradise of the Riviera Maya, where Quetzal Wedding Photo was born. Inspired by the Guatemalan bird, the Quetzal, our company symbolizes freedom, growth, and beauty. Today, Quetzal Wedding Photo has spread its wings and soars high, blessed to tell the love stories of 50-60 weddings each year.
My team is composed of five incredibly close, talented, creative, and professional destination photographers. We are more than just photographers; we are storytellers, dedicated to capturing the unique essence of every couple we work with. With love and mindfulness, we strive to immortalize the incredible emotions and energy that make each wedding special.
At Quetzal Wedding Photo, we believe in creating a joyful and relaxed atmosphere where genuine connections can be captured. We are honored to be a part of your journey, transforming moments into timeless memories with a conscious and heartfelt approach.
Hi! I´m Heather
Hey everyone! I was born in New York, but my home is Mexico. As a little girl, I dreamed of being a traveling photographer, and destiny has a way of finding you. My journey led me to the Riviera Maya, which has been my cherished home for 10+ years.
As the studio manager at Quetzal Wedding Photo, I have the joy of interacting with couples every day. It fills my heart to guide couples through the process of their destination wedding and to share in their excitement about their wedding photography. My passion lies in helping you feel at ease and enthusiastic as you embark on this beautiful journey of love and commitment.
Mexico has gifted me with a deeper connection to my work and to the amazing people I meet. I am here to ensure that every moment of your experience with us is filled with joy, understanding, and heartfelt connection.
Hi! I’m Flor!
Wedding photography and portrait photography make me feel truly alive. I am passionate about working with all kinds of people, and there is no greater satisfaction than hearing a family or couple express how much they enjoyed their experience with us. It is a true gift to be able to capture people’s precious moments and turn them into lasting memories.
My approach to photography is rooted in a deep appreciation for the connections we share and the unique stories each person brings. Every smile, every glance, and every touch tells a story of love and connection that I am honored to preserve. Being part of these intimate moments fills my heart with joy and gratitude, and I strive to reflect that in every photograph I take.
What’s up, everyone? I’m Alvaro.
My journey began in Mexico City, where I studied visual communication and design, but it was portrait photography that truly sparked my soul. Portrait photography is my way of communicating with the world, allowing me to capture and share the raw, positive emotions of the people I meet.
Joining Quetzal Wedding Photo has given me the perfect platform to combine my passion for photography with my love for connecting closely with incredible people. I thrive on freezing time and capturing unique, intimate moments that become treasured memories for years to come. Every portrait I take is a celebration of life, love, and the beautiful connections that bind us all.

When I’m not on-site, you can find me behind the computer fulfilling my tasks as the Junior Editor. Being part of such an outstanding team, driven by pure love and creativity, is a true blessing. I cherish the opportunity to contribute to the creation of beautiful memories that couples and families will treasure forever. Every moment I capture or edit is infused with a deep appreciation for the connections and love that make each story unique.
