Quetzal Wedding Photo

They were incredibly helpful, responsive, and knowledgeable, guiding us through the entire photography process with a calm confidence that immediately put us at ease. Whether it was helping us plan the timeline, scouting out the best lighting, or adjusting last-minute to unexpected changes — they were unshakably flexible and accommodating every step of the way.

Not only are they true professionals, but they’re also genuinely kind and wonderful people to be around. On a day filled with emotions and chaos, Ches Pizzini and Heather Toepke brought the perfect balance of joy, calm energy, and creativity — making everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera (even those of us who usually aren’t!).

And the photos? Absolutely stunning. Every single shot took our breath away. They captured the big moments, the small details, and the raw emotion of the day with such artistry and intention. The final gallery exceeded all expectations — it was like reliving our wedding day in the most beautiful way imaginable.

Thank you again to Ches Pizzini and Heather Toepke, their great assistant Kari Parra, and the awesome videographers Ismael Gonzalez and Alberto Palacios — you truly gave us the gift of unforgettable memories.

We had the absolute best experience with Ches and Heather from Quetzal Wedding Photo’s for our wedding photography! From the very first message, they were so responsive, organized, and genuinely excited to help make our day amazing. They walked us through everything, helped us pick the perfect package, and made the whole planning process feel so easy and exciting right from the start.

On the wedding day, they kept everything flowing so smoothly that we were actually able to relax and enjoy every second of it. We’re definitely not people who naturally feel comfortable in front of a camera, but somehow Ches and Heather made it feel completely effortless. They made us laugh, helped us feel relaxed, and honestly just felt like people we’d known forever. Nothing ever felt awkward or overly posed, which made such a huge difference for us.

They also knew all the best spots around the resort for photos and guided us so naturally throughout the day. What really amazed us though was how they captured so much more than just pictures, they captured the entire feeling of the day. Looking through our gallery brings back every emotion all over again. The excitement, the nerves, the laughter, the happy tears, and all the little moments we didn’t even realize were happening at the time. The photos feel so genuine and full of life, and that is something we’ll treasure forever.

We were also blown away by how fast we received everything. We got sneak peeks within just a few days, and our full gallery was delivered within two weeks of the wedding!

We honestly could not be happier that we chose Quetzal Wedding Photo’s. If you’re looking for photographers who are talented, fun, organized, and truly care about capturing your story, book them! You absolutely will not regret it!

Ches and Heather are the absolute BEST!! They went above and beyond both before we even arrived and met them in Cancun, and during the actual wedding day? NO WORDS. The most caring, fun, loving people that really wanted to listen and give me exactly what I wanted for my wedding pictures. 10/10 experience, people, service, and photos. If you're having any doubts about working with them...don't. You won't regret it :)

El trato súper amable, el servicio súper profesional, solo recibí comentarios positivos por parte de mis invitados y además nos tuvieron listas nuestras fotos en tiempo record (1 semana) nadie lo podíamos creer. Estamos muy contentos y sumamente agradecidos con Ches y su equipo! Hicieron que todo saliera perfecto, fácil y natural. No nos dieron ni el más mínimo problema, al contrario todo fluyó con confianza y buena vibra. Los felicito por su gran talento, profesionalismo y los recomiendo totalmente. NO LE FALLEN! AQUÍ ES :)

One of the absolute best decisions we made was hiring our photographers, Ches and Heather. They were fun, calm, and incredibly talented, which mattered a lot on a day that ended up being a little chaotic thanks to rain. Instead of adding stress, they helped turn it into something truly memorable. They knew the resort layout and best photo spots immediately, pivoted effortlessly when weather shifted, and kept everything moving without making it feel rushed. Our photos are stunning, full of emotion and joy, and somehow still feel very “us.” They also turned around our gallery unbelievably fast and even shared some fun Instagram content right away, which was such a bonus.

For comparison, we did use the in-house resort photographer for our rehearsal dinner, and while that was fine, the difference in quality, creativity, and overall experience was very noticeable.

We are beyond grateful to have had the privilege of working with Ches and Heather for our wedding. From the moment they arrived, they fit so seamlessly into our day — it never felt staged or forced. They immersed themselves so naturally, instantly putting us, our families, and our friends at ease and making everyone feel comfortable, confident, and truly themselves.

The photos are nothing short of breathtaking. I honestly cannot thank them enough — every image is stunning. They somehow captured both the emotion and the energy of the day while making us look like models. Countless family members and friends have told us these photos look like they belong in a magazine, and we couldn’t agree more.

Their talent, professionalism, and warmth are unmatched. The only regret I have from our wedding day is not adding videography — because their work is so incredible, I would have trusted them with every possible moment.

I 1000% recommend Ches and Heather to anyone considering them. We could not be happier with our experience or our photos, and we will cherish them forever💕

Working with Ches and Heather from Quetzal Wedding Photo was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. They are THE BEST photography team and I cannot recommend them enough!! From the very beginning, their proactive communication put us completely at ease — they were thoughtful, responsive, and genuinely invested in understanding our vision. Leading up to the wedding, they guided us through every step with so much clarity and care, which made the entire experience feel effortless.

On the day of, they were nothing short of incredible. Their ability to direct, gather, and organize our family and wedding party for photos (and keep everything on schedule) was a lifesaver. They managed it all with such calm professionalism, while still bringing the warmest, most uplifting energy into every moment.

Our wedding vibe was a mix of romantic, fun, hype, and party vibes — which Ches and Heather captured it all perfectly. They saw the tiny in-between moments, the big emotional ones, and everything that made the day feel magical. And their authenticity and kindness… is truly unmatched. They made us feel celebrated, comfortable, and fully ourselves in front of the camera.

The turnaround time for the photos was unbelievably fast, and when we saw the gallery, we were blown away. Every image is stunning — full of heart, detail, movement, and emotion. We know we’ll cherish these photos for the rest of our lives.

Ches and Heather are not only phenomenal photographers; they’re phenomenal people. We are endlessly grateful for them and could not recommend them more highly!! We love you Ches and Heather, and thank you so much for making our wedding dreams come true!

THESE TWO ARE AMAZING!!! I can’t say enough great things about Ches and Heather. From the initial call, where they plotted out the whole day, to the communication leading up to the big day, to the day of, they were all over everything and made sure everything was perfect and they captured all the moments. They took the time to get to know us, and if felt like we had our friends with us the whole day! Not only is their work stunning, they were able to capture our personalities and made the whole experience super relaxed and comfortable, and every single picture was perfection. Even out guests commented how awesome they were, and they spent the night on the dance floor with all of us, capturing every fun moment of our wedding. We truly can’t thank them enough for being a part of our special day!!

Heather and Ches were our wedding photographers, and they were absolutely amazing! From the start, they came up with a clear schedule for the day and kept us right on track, which helped everything run smoothly. They were so accommodating with all of our requests and made sure every special moment we wanted captured was included. On top of that, they took their time with us and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera, which made the experience even more enjoyable.

The photos turned out beautifully, and we are so grateful to have such gorgeous memories to look back on. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to be part of our wedding day. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for talented, professional, and thoughtful photographers!

I cannot rave enough about how amazing it was working with Quetzal. Ches and Alvaro were so great to work with and their work was absolutely stunning. When I tell you I never like any photos of myself and LOVED all the photos that were sent to us, I am not exaggerating. They were sent to us so quickly and we were so incredibly happy with their work. All our guests talked about how amazing they were and all who have seen our photos are blown away. I discovered their work through Instagram and can honestly say they were the best choice of our wedding day, other than each other of course 😊
