San Miguel de Allende Wedding Photographer
Hello there! I’m Adrian Bonet, a seasoned photographer specializing in weddings. I have a profound passion for encapsulating the essence of love and emotion on one of life’s most unforgettable occasions.
With over ten years of expertise in photography, I’ve had the privilege of documenting numerous stunning destination weddings in Mexico, particularly in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato. Each event is unique and remarkable in its own right.
I approach photography with the belief that every couple possesses a distinctive narrative. My goal is to immortalize these priceless moments, ensuring they are treasured for eternity. From the tender glances shared during the ceremony to the ensuing festivities, I am dedicated to crafting enduring, heartfelt memories that will resonate for generations to come.
Your wedding day marks a significant chapter in your life’s journey, and I consider it an honor to capture it through the artistic lens of my camera.
“The day I received the photos I was over the moon. When looking at my photos, I can literally feel the exact emotions felt on that day. The photos are better than I could have imagined.” Christina Helm.

Serving in San Miguel de Allende
Adrian Bonet and Ivonne Matias form a talented duo of professional photographers.
Our journey into the photography realm commenced in 2006 when we established a reputable advertising photography company in Barcelona, Spain. Initially concentrating on portrait and fashion photography, we collaborated with esteemed corporations and advertising agencies.
Our enthusiasm for capturing weddings blossomed over time, leading us to delve deeper into this captivating field. Beginning outdoor wedding photography in 2008, we gained global acclaim for our exceptional work in this domain.
In 2013, we made the pivotal decision to move to Mexico to pursue our lifelong dream of capturing remarkable weddings. Exploring various locations across Mexico from north to south, we conducted numerous memorable photo shoots.
Personal note: Our adventures have taken us across continents, spanning North America, Europe, Africa, and Asia.
While we find joy in music, films, art, and literature, our deepest passion lies in photography. The ability to immortalize the fleeting beauty of a moment endlessly fuels our inspiration.
We are currently based in Playa del Carmen, dedicated to capturing the essence of destination weddings in San Miguel de Allende for couples from around the globe!
“Stunning pictures that truly captured our special day. Each time I look at them, I feel as though I’m there … in the moment. And a lot of my guests have stunning, beautifully lit portraits, too. I just love that. I would choose Adrian and Ivonne again and again.” Kathryn & Jack.
Our Distinctive Photography Style
Our wedding photography style is deeply rooted in the prestigious genre of Creative Wedding Photojournalism, which we proudly embrace. This innovative technique fuses the artistry of documentary photography with the artistic finesse of portraiture, resulting in an enthralling visual narrative that perfectly captures the essence of your special day.
In the realm of documentary photography, we are unwaveringly committed to capturing moments as they occur naturally. This signifies that we place a premium on authenticity and purity, ensuring that the images we create are devoid of any manipulations. Our ultimate objective is to depict reality in its purest form, without contrived poses or staged settings. To accomplish this, we take a hands-off approach, allowing events to unfold naturally while preserving the authenticity and spontaneity that make each moment so special.
We do not, however, stop there. We understand that a wedding is a tapestry of emotions, relationships, and experiences, not merely a series of moments. Our artistic portraiture comes into play here. In this aspect of our work, we manipulate elements such as lighting, composition, and color to transform every image into a work of art. This allows us to capture not only the physical beauty of the moment, but also the profound emotions, connections, and stories that lie within.
Our method is a delicate balancing act between these two distinct styles: candid and aesthetic. We believe that both elements are equally important to convey the multifaceted nature of weddings. We value unplanned moments, laughter, tears, and genuine interactions that occur spontaneously. Simultaneously, we celebrate the beauty of meticulously composed and artistically executed portraits that serve as enduring reminders of the love and joy you felt on your wedding day.
Our Creative Wedding Photojournalism style is ultimately a harmonious fusion of two worlds: the raw authenticity of documentary photography and the artistic elegance of portraiture. We aim to provide you with a comprehensive and enchanting visual narrative that not only tells the story of your wedding day but also evokes the emotions and memories that will last a lifetime.
“I would absolutely recommend hiring Adrian to shoot your wedding or event. He is very professional and communicative. He is also insanely talented. If you are looking for editorial level wedding photos then Adrian is your man.” Maura Rahill.
