Epic! Malisa and Todd had the most incredible wedding in Tulum last week, and I had the honor to shoot the whole four days of festivities. It was an amazing time — we did everything from zip lines to snorkeling in cenotes to partying at Carnival in Cancun. I got back three days ago and I’m still recovering.
We had all sorts of awesome photo excursions — one day we actually took some strobes and went down into a cenote before the place opened, and had full run of a massive underground cave with a crystal clear river running through it. Absolutely fantastic. Check out the pictures below.
Also, they managed to find one of the coolest venues I’ve ever been to anywhere: the Mil Amores hotel, way off the beaten path in Tulum. It was the house of the infamous drug lord Pablo Escobar, who was listed by Forbes Magazine as the world’s 7th richest man in 1989. We had a tour and were shown the “yoga room” and I had visions of a dozen of the world’s biggest cocaine kingpins in there involved in all sorts of debauchery. Anyway, if you’re considering getting married in Mexico, I can’t recommend this place enough. The staff’s just super nice and accommodating and the building and location are both just incredible. And if anyone reading this winds up there, give their Doberman a pat for me. The poor dog had an ear infection when it was a pup and has no sense of balance: it walks like a drunk and runs into stationary objects.
Sometimes I have to pinch myself: is this job for real? I had so much fun hanging out with Todd and Malisa and getting to know their family and friends. It’s great getting to spend time with everyone and meeting new people. After a little while, we all are at ease and I think that shows up in the photos.
Anyway, Todd, Malisa: CONGRATULATIONS! I wish you guys the very best, and can’t wait to see you again one of these day. If you come to Colorado, you’ve always got a place to stay and rocks to climb
