SINCE 2014

AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE


Nayarit
Wedding and Elopement Photography Service.

Are you searching for a Wedding or Event photographer in Nayarit?

I have been covering over 170 Weddings since July 2014, I can say that I am full of advice and help for your big day.

My couples are similar and so different at the same time. I would say that they have certain similar characteristics, they prefer to spend time with their families and friends rather than spending an hour taking the couple photos, they are usually shy, they don’t feel at ease to be the center of the attention, they have a certain knowledge about art, sometimes photography and painting.

Do you want to have an intimate wedding in Nayarit that reflects your journey as a couple, your passions, and your spirit of adventure?  

This is elopement photography for couples who want to ignore tradition and get married in a way that feels authentic to them. As a photographer, my purpose is to discreetly capture the story of your day in an honest and heartfelt way, without posing or intruding. I will record every aspect, from the raw emotions and poignant moments as they unfold, to the details you won’t want to forget.

I care deeply about creating meaningful connections with every couple who invites me to be a part of their journey. My approach is to innovate, not to conform to conventions. Your elopement experience should be as personal, genuine, and unique as you are.

Emotional Photographer documenting emotional Weddings.

Since July 2014, I document your intimate wedding, your Minimony, Sequel Wedding, Micro wedding or Adventurous Elopement, proposal, and engagement and I have seen a lot of love stories, full of joy and emotions. It has a lot of different names but only the story matters. I am moved by telling the story of your day in the most natural and genuine way possible. No need to spend one hour behind the church with me to take the couple photographs, I will always value letting you spend time with family and friends. This is your day, not mine.

Most of my couples define themselves as shy in front of the camera, I believe simply they don’t know how easy it is to spend a few simple moments with their partner in front of my camera. I will follow you from getting ready to the dance floor in the most natural way possible. To deliver a poetic and unique vision of the most important day of your life.
I have a lot of experience and expertise in traveling around Europe mostly. For the last 6 years, I have covered most of my weddings abroad and overseas.


I believe I can help you with my experience and advice for a perfect wedding day. I have prepared some articles to help you to find the right place to get married or to be inspired in some places like Spain, The Balearic Islands such as Ibiza, Mallorca,… Mexico, Morocco and of course Portugal. I have also written an article about the most underrated locations in Europe to have your small and intimate wedding with friends.

Testimonials

“We knew that we had found someone very special when we chose Eric to capture our wedding(s). We had planned a special day in Scotland, however had also planned a smaller family celebration in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia the following weekend. It was important for us to have a consistent narrator and someone who was able to capture the vibrance of the days, in both countries in the same way, yet highlight the contrasting environments beautifully, and Eric was the only person for that role! It was a role that we didn’t even know if someone would be willing or able to do, and we could not believe it when he said that he would travel the world to help us document this time in our lives! The shots that he captured tell the story of the two days so beautifully. The life, the joy, the finer details, the brilliant conversations that we forgot we had, the roaring laughter, and the more sentimental moments. The photos gave us everything that we could have hoped for from that special time and more. A truly remarkable talent, with a way of making you feel completely at ease, and seamlessly capturing everything without us even realizing that he was. We cannot thank him enough for all that he did for us, we are forever grateful.” F&D

"From the moment we discovered Eric-René’s photography and met up with him to discuss capturing our wedding, it was meant to be. His work resonated with us deeply, particularly his bohemian and natural feel, emotive and poetic. We wanted raw, truthful storytelling and that’s exactly what he delivered. We were blown away by the magic he brought to our day and the quality of his artistry that followed. He is a joy to work with, and melted into the proceedings so you weren’t even aware that he was shooting, he made us feel so comfortable and everything simply flowed. Eric-René is a wonderful person as well as a talented photographer and has personally brought me a lot of inspiration through his warmth, kindness, and passion to empower others through creativity and connection. Thank you Eric-Rene, from the bottom of our hearts." H&M

“Thank you so much for being the best photographer and friend, so happy how the photographs turned out to be the most unique and beautiful testimony. We are blown away by the narrative, and many weeks after it feels like we never left the party. We could not have asked for a better experience” G&L

A bit of History about Nayarit.


 

Nayarit (Spanish pronunciation: [naʝaˈɾit]), officially the Free and Sovereign State of Nayarit (SpanishEstado Libre y Soberano de Nayarit), is one of the 32 states that comprise the Federal Entities of Mexico. It is divided in 20 municipalities and its capital city is Tepic.

It is bordered by the states of Sinaloa to the northwest, Durango to the north, Zacatecas to the northeast and Jalisco to the south. To the west, Nayarit has a significant share of coastline on the Pacific Ocean, including the islands of Marías and Marietas. The beaches of San Blas and the so-called "Riviera Nayarit" are popular with tourists. Besides tourism, the economy of the state is based mainly on agriculture and fishing. It is also one of two states where the tarantula species Brachypelma klaasi is found, the other being Jalisco.

Home to Uto-Aztecan indigenous peoples such as the Huichol and Cora, the region was exposed to the conquistadoresHernán Cortés and Nuño de Guzmán, in the 16th century. Spanish governance was made difficult by indigenous rebellions and by the inhospitable terrain of the Sierra del Nayar. The last independent Cora communities were subjugated in 1722. The state's name recalls the Cora people's label for themselves: Náayerite, commemorating Nayar, a resistance leader.
