The studio’s approach

IVAE works in an editorial style with an emphasis on sunrise and sunset light. Preparation covers your itinerary, wardrobe and location before the shoot. Vianey Díaz leads creative direction, supported by a bilingual planning and production team.

When reviewing the portfolio, look at sessions in settings like yours: a beach shoot, resort interior and large family gathering each ask different things of a photographer. Share images you like, say whether you prefer movement or close portraits, and tell the team who is participating and which photos matter most.

Locations in Cancun and the Riviera Maya

The website features sessions in Cancun’s Hotel Zone, Playa Mujeres, Mayakoba, Tulum and other Riviera Maya settings, using beaches, resort areas and covered spaces. For a shoot at your hotel, the property may have rules or fees for outside photographers, so agree with the studio on who arranges permission and whether those costs are in the proposal. If you are still choosing a stay, browse our Cancun and Riviera Maya resorts.

Session planning and image delivery

Many portrait sessions last 60 to 90 minutes, with the team guiding you through several setups. Edited images are delivered through a private online gallery, with an advertised turnaround of one to three business days. Ask how many edited photos are included and whether prints, video or extra editing cost more.

A proposal needs a clear plan for where the photographer will be and how to communicate discreetly. For families, leave room in the schedule for young children and mention any mobility needs when choosing locations. Keep the session away from tight excursion departures or transfers.

Before you book

The studio works by appointment and quotes each session individually. Check the date, duration, location permissions, total price including travel fees, deliverables, image-use rights and the rain and cancellation terms in your written proposal before paying a deposit.
