History
Ten pieces of baggage, no friends, no relatives, no idea what to do. That is how Latvian fashion photographer Eva Šica and her husband, graphic designer Kristians Šics, arrived to Mexico in 2008. For the first six months, they lived with a Mexican family, learning the Spanish language, manners, and recipes.
Soon, Eva met project director Pierre Morillon from France at a fashion photo session he was managing; this connection led to the establishment of the PhotoShoots Vallarta studio, and in 2015, it changed its name to Ave Sol.
They also added the invaluable Jessica Téllez to their photography team that same year, whose career is thriving with them to this day.

Now
After 15 years, some 900 weddings later, Eva and Kristians live in their own small fruit jungle with chickens, turkeys, cats, and dogs roaming freely. Their ten-year-old son, Carlos, proudly proclaims himself as a future master photography assistant and editor.

Studio
Ave Sol studio was the first in Puerto Vallarta to deliver photographs to clients within three weeks or less, and every couple is thrilled to receive a sneak-peek gallery on their wedding night. Each image is refined with impeccable attention to detail through their in-house editing process, designed by Kristians Sics. There are no generic filters; Ave Sol chooses to celebrate the natural beauty of colors.

Acomplishments
While Ave Sol has published images in many wedding magazines and blogs over the years, it has been a great career highlight to have the prestigious Carats & Cakes magazine recommend them. Ave Sol has worked with high-end clients such as Eva Longoria, Demi Lovato, and Bob Guiney. Each summer, the studio’s team gains fresh inspiration by shooting weddings in Europe, mainly in France and Latvia.

“We love to work with all couples, all traditions, everything outside traditions, same-gender couples, and couples with their own flower girls and ring bearers. Above all is love, which is always astonishingly photogenic,” says Eva.

Eva and Jessica are AMAZING

We met Eva during our wedding visit in 2021 and knew it was an instant fit! Eva and Jessica made us feel so comfortable the entire day and all of the photos showed the day perfectly. They have both shot the W multiple time and we loved that they knew what angles to get. We have looked at our photos every month since the wedding and always love finding a new photo we may not have seen before. I highly recommend Eva and her team!

Ave Sol Photography is Absolutely Amazing

We had the pleasure of working with Ava and Jessica from Ave Sol Photography for our destination wedding in Puerto Vallarta, and even though we’ve only received the sneak peek photos so far—we are already completely blown away.
They photographed both our rehearsal dinner and wedding day, capturing every emotion, detail, and moment with such warmth and artistry just as outlined in the Vision Board I created for them on Canva. From the second they arrived, Ava and Jessica brought calm, positive energy and made us feel completely at ease. They were professional, kind, and so intentional with every shot capturing the special moments, while keeping us on time. The way that Ava allows you to be yourself in front of the camera, while providing subtle tips and suggestions to improve the shot and capture what we were envisioning was incredibly helpful. We did not feel posed or overwhelmed with her guidance. The sneak peeks we’ve seen already look like they belong in a magazine and I cannot believe it is us in them. The lighting, framing, and emotion they captured in just a handful of images is breathtaking—and if this is just the preview, we cannot wait to see the full gallery.
We are beyond grateful for the way they documented our most important weekend, and we can already tell we’ll treasure these photos for the rest of our lives.
If you're lucky enough to work with Ava and Jessica, know that you’re in the hands of two incredibly talented artists who genuinely care about their couples and their special day.

Cannot recommend enough!

Jessica is amazing! Before the wedding Jessica was very easy to reach by email or WhatsApp. She was so kind and flexible when a few days before the wedding I asked if we could add extra time.

The day of the wedding she and her assistant Memo arrived early and took charge! Jessica found the perfect place for our first look and family photos. She and Memo staged the room where I was getting ready and Memo even took over steaming the train of my dress.

Jessica is a genius behind the camera. Our photos came out better than I ever could have hoped. We had sneak peek photos before the end of the night and the rest of them within 3 weeks! It's so hard for me to choose which pictures to post here as an example because I love them all. I could not be happier with the final result. If you are planning a wedding the in PVR area book Ave Sol as soon as you can!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
