What primary photographic style do you identify with?
We found Alive Photo Studio on Wedding Wire. I fell in love with their photos on various platforms. I wasn't impressed with our resort's photographer/videographer profile and capturing our special day was extremely important to me! Our resort had increased our outside vendor fee to $1,000 per vendor, but the price difference was pretty minimal (even with the vendor fee). Don't be scared to negotiate with your coordinator/resort about your vendor fee. They tried to charge us $1,000 per person we brought in, but we ended up just paying the 1 vendor fee considering photography/videography is the same vendor under the resort.
Alive Photo Studio was great at communicating with us prior to the wedding. We had two scheduled FaceTime calls, which made us feel more at ease hiring a company outside our country. On the day of the wedding, the photographers/videographer showed up on time and were amazing throughout the entire day. Our photos/videos turned out even better than I could have ever imagined! Every one of our family members/friends cannot believe how stunning our photos and videos are. We have had multiple people tell us they look like stock or magazine photos. However, if you go on this business' website, ALL of their wedding albums look like this. Their attention to detail is outstanding, and they are the nicest people!
Regardless of what your vendor fee is, HIRE Alive Photo Studio! I promise you will be amazed!

I first found the photographer Nestor will on vaca and my husband proposed. We went ahead and did engagement photos while there because we felt so comfortable with him. They turned out fabulous.
Upon choosing Cancun for the wedding, there was no other choice for capturing my special day then Nestor and his team. He and I stayed in constant communication and went over the details of the wedding . I had no worries the day of the wedding, he was professional and very thorough. His attention to detail was able to capture our perfect day incredibly. We also did the trash the dress in a cenote and got magical photos.
We just celebrated our anniversary and look back and love our photos.
please feel free to look me up on facebook , i'd love to connect with you and share my photos and help in anyway get you ready for your special day.
Find me by my email Rebeca_steele@yahoo.com or name Rebeca Steele
Thanks and just remember choose Nestor and his team and you will be amazed at their work :)

Our DREAM destination wedding!!!
My husband and I were absolutely blown away by our beautiful wedding pictures that ALIVE Photo studio sent to us. They were breathtaking! Our photographers really captured these memorable moments of us on our wedding day that we won't ever forget. We couldn't have asked for a better company to work with. They were reliable and on time. They were so nice and made us feel so comfortable. Their prices were very reasonable. We would definitely recommend them to any of our friends or family members needing a photographer!

Maravillosa experiencia
La pandemia hizo que cambiaramos nuestros planes de boda, pero gracias a la comprehension de Alive y todo su equipo pudimos relizarnos el estudio de fotos que tanto queriamos. El lugar escogido para las fotos y el talento de su fotografo fue algo de ensueño.

10/10 experience. So so happy
We loved working with a Alive Photo Studio. Our wedding pictures were literally a dream come true. Everyone of my guest and family members raved about how great David was and how he was always there to get the good shots. I love just looking at our gallery and reminiscing on our absolute favorite day. Hopefully next year we come back to Mexico he can take anniversary photos for us. The pricing was very good for the amount of time he was there… My one complaint was that he did not get any bridal portraits of me. That is also my fault because I did not remind him and it slipped my mind so no harm no foul. I would absolutely book with this vendor again. I love love love our photos so much I could not be happier. I have never seen such beautiful wedding photos and I’m so thankful that they’re all mine thanks to David

Fabulous Experience with Alive Photography
HIGHLY recommend this group! From the first inquiry Marian answered all our questions and was very responsive. She even scheduled a zoom call to better help us understand the process and the type of experience Alive Photography aims to provide. We felt extremely comfortable and after viewing some portfolios we knew this was the group for us. I am extremely thankful we went with them! David and Nestor were our photographers and they both were extremely warm and pleasant. David worked more with me (the bride) and Nestor with the groom prior to the wedding. Both photographers guided us with different photos and poses as well as taking plenty of candid shots. They captured our wedding PERFECTLY. They both were very active taking photos but never disrupted our wedding or special moments. The photos we received are incredible with a nice blend of poses family photos, to candid, to even some special “artistic” photos that are absolutely gorgeous. I am over the moon with the photos and experience they provided. I look at my photos and they depict my wedding perfectly. I am so happy to have these photos as memories of our special day. Thank you so much Alive Photography y’all are amazing! Don’t hesitate booking them, you won’t regret it!

Great Service!
These guys/girls are GREAT!
They made planning and coordinating extremely easy. There was a constant line of communication with the coordination team/photographer, and the response time was usually within a few hours via email or whatsapp.
We were able to set up a zoom meeting a few weeks before our event and the team was very receptive to our requests and the vision we had.
On the day of the event they were on time and very professional. The photographers were very friendly, personable and gave clear directions for specific shots.
We had David and Nestor as our photographers and Nelson and Carlos as our videographers. The entire team was extremely attentive to our needs outside of just photos and video. They created a more relaxed environment and made sure we were enjoying the moment.
The end result was fantastic. We loved all the photos and they really captured our vision.
We will be enjoying the photos for the rest of our life!

Professional and talented artists
The Alive Studio team was extremely professional and talented. We were so thrilled we decided to hire them for photography and videography. We got married at Moon Palace and it was totally worth the vendor fee to have Alive shoot for us.
We were greeted with professional. Their artistic liberty was able to capture our vision. We had so much fun shooting with them that it didn’t feel like a photo shoot session.
We received our photos and videos and were amazed of how well everything was captured. Their deliverables were outstanding!
We are able to relive the best day of our lives cause of Alive.
Thank you so much!
Highly highly recommend!!!

Forever Memories Thanks To A Great Company!
We loved our time working with Alive Photo Studio. From the start, Marian was so helpful! She was always available for questions and even gave me her WhatsApp contact for quicker responses. We went with their eight hour photo/video package for our wedding at El Dorado Royale. Our photographer was David Rangel and our videographers were Ricardo and Daniela. They were all so amazing! They made us feel so comfortable and we are so happy with our videos and our photos. I would definitely recommend this team to other couples for their big day.
ALIVE Photo Studio's reply:
Brittany and Daryl! Thanks a lot for your amazing review. You’re such a beautiful couple and we felt honored about capturing your special day! Our best wishes to you both!

Espectacular!!!
Decidimos casarnos en Riviera Maya y no nos gustaron las fotos del proveedor de fotografía del Hotel, busque quienes eran los Top fotógrafos de allá y encontré a Alive Photo Studio! Desde la primera llamada senti tanta calidez, me senti tan comprendida y apoyada por Marian desde el primer momento, me dio tanta tranquilidad y paz ( casarse en otro pais genera mucho stress e inseguridad porque los ultimos dias te das cuenta que no conoces todos los detalles). Luego de que Alive me ayudo tanto adaptandose para que pueda tener exactamente lo que yo queria el dia de mi boda, vino mi reunión con el fotógrafo que fue fantástica también! Hicimos click el minuto 1. No tengo palabras para describirles la quimica y lo natural que me senti con David todo el tiempo, era como si lo hubiera conocido de toda la vida. Las fotos y el video estuvieron fantásticos! Hermosas fotos y además llenas de vida!! Captaron todos y cada uno de los momentos importantes de ese dia tan especial. Los recomiendo al 100% encontrarlos fue lo mejor que me pasó!!

ALIVE Captured the True Beauty of our Special Day!
ALIVE Photo Studio was our wedding photographer for our destination wedding at Dreams Sands Cancun and to say we were impressed by David Rangel would be an understatement! The whole ALIVE team really went out of their way to be sure they captured our wedding day perfectly, and we really couldn’t have been more pleased with how beautifully the pictures turned out! Not to mention their communication and our meeting leading up to the big day were excellent. David was the lead photographer and his awesome personality, eye for photography, in combination with his skills meshed so well with us and how we wanted our special day to be photographed. We highly recommend ALIVE for your next important photoshoot, I can guarantee they will not disappoint!
