Book this team!

Maureen and Edgar truly made our wedding what it was! No joke.

We LOVE the artsy shots they captured as well as magical small moments of the guests we adore. Everyone who attended the wedding have printed a photograph as they were just THAT GOOD.

From the first call to the big day, this team made us at ease. We laughed together, they deeply listened and took care of every detail. Maureen's emails were very speedy and I trusted them throughout the planning process-which was especially important as it was a destination wedding.

It rained. Hard. Like tropical rainstorm one hour before our ceremony. My wife to be couldn't physically get to me for our First Look shots (in the most insane spot Maureen had found for us in the resort spa of all places) because of the rain.
Instantly, this team swooped in and made us laugh and pivoted to make a new plan. They adjusted timings, new locations and met all of our photo requests. The results blew our minds. Some guests are professional photographers and they were struck by how stunning the pictures were. They also commented on how comfortable Edgar and Maureen made they feel too.
Edgar and his team cultivated a masterpiece of a short film for us. Forget boring, hour long wedding video. Think of an artistic short that you'd be proud of placing front and center of your Insta page. Every time we watch it, we cry, we laugh and we are transported back to our day. You 'feel' the experience again.

Please don't waste time researching other teams. I am very picky and have a high bar for what we wanted.
Maureen and Edgar EXCEEDED every expectation we had.

Amazing and exciting

I had the most amazing experience with Maureen and Edgar! My wedding day did not go as planned as it rained on everything and we had to come up with plan b. They were so accommodating, hopeful, and willing to do anything it took to get us the most perfect photos and videos. They even came the day after our wedding to take pictures because we weren’t able to the day of the wedding. We are so grateful for the best duo ever! My family loved them and couldn’t have had better things to say. Book them for your next event you will not be disappointed!!

Maureen de Vries
Co-Owner & Lead Photographer

Nice to meet you! My name is Maureen (people call me Mo), and apart from being the Co-Owner / Founder of M.E. Photo & Films I am also the Lead Photographer. I´m originally from Holland, but have been in Mexico for almost 10 years now. With that, I am lucky enough to be able to speak Dutch, English and Spanish! Photography has always been a passion, but I have been a professional photographer for over 8 years and decided a long time ago to specialize in weddings.

A few years ago, Edgar (the other Co-Owner / Founder, Lead Videographer and my one true love) and I decided to make our long last dream come true and start our own company. We learned so much over the years, from so many big names in the industry, that we decided to make our own move in the photography and videography industry.

Our aim is to make you feel incredibly special on your big day, but at the same time, make you feel at ease, knowing you are in good hands! I´ll help you plan your itinerary prior to your wedding day and you can let me know about any special requests that you may have. We hope to bring you lots of on your magical day, with amazing pictures that you´ll cherish forever...

Edgar Lara
Co-Owner / Lead Videographer

Hey, how are you! My name is Edgar (just call me Eddy!), and apart from being the Co-Owner / Founder of M.E. Photo & Films I am also the Lead Videographer. I´m from Veracruz Mexico (jarocho!!!) but have been living in Playa del Carmen Cancun for the last 5 years. I started my career in videography in Veracruz, by studing cinema and working as an Associate Videographer for a great local production. I move to Playa del Carmen, worked a little bit in the hotels, but in the end had to come back to shoot video. It´s my passion and it´s what I love to do.

Maureen and I created M.E. Photo & Films to be able to offer high-end quality Photography & Videography at an accesible cost.

We take great pride in our work and our aim is to make you feel at ease on your big day, have fun and let us take care of the rest!

Associate Videographer

Diego has been our Associate Videographer since day 1. We refer to him as Parker (actually this is a nickname that nobody remembers where it came from!). Diego has great energy, is incredibly creative and just keeps the party going! Aside from that, he works with exactly the same gear as Edgar, which makes this a perfect fit!
