Grand Miramar, Casa Karma, Dreams Bahia Mita, Hyatt Ziva, and dozens more iconic wedding venues.
Historic Neighborhoods
Cobblestone streets, bougainvillea-lined walls, and colonial architecture of Gringo Gulch for unique urban portraits.
Private Beaches
Las Caletas and other boat-access-only venues create truly exclusive, intimate wedding experiences.
No Travel Fees
We're local — no flights, no hotel costs. Your budget goes toward coverage, not logistics.
Your Puerto Vallarta Photography Expert
Evgenia Kostiaeva founded Vallarta Photo after building a decade-and-a-half career photographing destination weddings on Mexico's Pacific coast. Her specialization is straightforward: international couples who are planning their wedding remotely and need a photographer they can trust completely.
Her style — documentary storytelling with editorial composition — means your gallery will feel authentic rather than staged, cinematic rather than stiff. Every important moment is captured as it actually happened.
Evgenia serves all venues in Puerto Vallarta: resort properties with dedicated wedding departments, independent boutique villas, private beaches, and historic locations throughout the city.
- Fluent English — seamless remote planning
- North American wedding tradition expertise
- Bilingual vendor coordination
- All-inclusive resort vendor access (permits handled)
- Virtual consultations available
