Todos Santos, Mexico, Adventure Elopement

5/21/2024

Cliff and Jenny's Todos Santos elopement/intimate wedding was incredible. As a Durango photographer it was a pleasure to step out of the mountains and desert and into the beach and jungle (and back into the desert a bit as well).

Cliff and his family have been going to Todos Santos, about an hour North of Cabo San Lucas, for a long time and I don't think anyone was upset about having to travel there for his beautiful adventure wedding. I sure wasn't. Todos and Cabo are on the very bottom of the Baja Peninsula and one can easily visit the Sea of Cortez or the Pacific side from either location.

That being said, travel to Todos definitely requires a car and don't expect to find any mega resorts there. There is no airport so anyone traveling to the area must first fly into Cabo San Lucas and figure it out from there. We woke up every morning to the local roosters crowing and the neighborhood dogs chasing each other up and down the dirt streets; it was lovely.

The majority of the guests all stayed together at a spectacular seaside compound with individual casitas, saguaro cacti, flowering bougainvilleas, and a large central pool and dining area perfect for the welcome party. The wedding was held at Rancho Corazon within a raked-earth palm jungle including a stunning pool, bar, stage, ceremony area, and reception/dancing zone with a separate bar and kitchen/prep area. www.ranchocorazonbaja.com/ This place was probably one of the most beautiful ceremony and reception locations I have ever seen. The Mexico wedding photography there was incredible.

The maracas shook, the mariachi was danced to, and the tequila shots were flowing.

Durango photographers are used to having lots of beautiful scenery to work with, but you won't find something like this while your clients elope in Colorado! I can't wait to return to the Baja.

Cliff and Jenny were the perfect clients, they were fun, expressive, silly, gorgeous, and very easy going. We had a blast together and never said no to any of my photography requests. Thanks for being so wonderful you two.
