I can’t say enough magical words to describe this styled shoot we did at this all-inclusive, Iberostar Grand Paraíso on the Riviera Maya. It’s located right on the beachfront and has been designed with adults in mind. This superior-category, majestic, elegant, and luxurious hotel is located in the Paraíso Complex along with 4 other hotels. Also, Iberostar has quickly become one of my favorite (not only) destination resorts, but one of my favorite BRANDS. They have a “Wave of Change” movement which is their commitment to the oceans and leading responsible and sustainable tourism. They are 100% plastic and single use FREE at over 150 of their locations globally. They are Spain owned, they support their local farmers, and give back to the ocean by helping plant coral reefs going extinct.
I had so much to learn from such wisdom sitting alongside their President/CEO of the America’s resorts as well as their head of “Romance” team.
Iberostar wants to bring not only an amazing wedding experience, but a FULL luxury, destination WEEK of adventures.
Photographing for this brand was one of my, if not THE top project I’ve ever been hired to do. You’ll be seeing more and more sessions on my blog from all the brand shoots we did with Iberostar in 3 different countries. We had a team of about 10-30 people helping make everything happen from sunrise sessions on the beach, to parisailing, massages and candlelit sunset dinners, cocktail making classes, bonfire welcome parties, river trips on bamboo boats, 4+ wedding set ups and so much more.
A project of a lifetime.
Please make sure you go follow Iberostar on all social platforms. I TRULY believe with all my heart, after getting to know the team behind the brand, as well as seeing multiple destinations from Cancun to Jamaica, and experiencing the stays myself, that they truly are a company of high class, consideration, thoughtfulness, sustainability and fun all wrapped up in a bow!
Also, go love on this amazing duo, Nick and Norm. They were one of my favorites to photograph, EVER!
