A Wind-Kissed Couples Session at Punta Sur and a Secluded Beach on Isla Mujeres — Hayley & Larry

Some photo sessions feel like pure magic, and Hayley and Larry’s romantic couples session on Isla Mujeres was exactly that. After getting married in their home state of Texas a few months prior, they decided to celebrate their new marriage in a more adventurous and intimate way—by traveling to Mexico for a destination-style photoshoot in their wedding attire. Their vision led us to two of the island’s most beautiful locations: Punta Sur and a quiet, secluded beach perfect for intimate portraits.

They were staying at the stylish Hotel Belo on Isla Mujeres, where I picked them up in my golf cart before we headed to our first stop. Punta Sur greeted us with its signature drama—towering cliffs, turquoise waters, and waves that crashed so powerfully they seemed to breathe life into every photo. The wind was strong that day, but instead of fighting it, Hayley and Larry embraced it. Her dress caught the breeze in the most cinematic way, adding movement and emotion to every image.

As we explored the winding pathways and cliff edges, they shared their love story—one filled with timing, serendipity, and a second chance. They had met years ago, but life took them down separate paths. After each of them married and later divorced, fate brought them back together, allowing them to reconnect in a deeper, more meaningful chapter of their lives. Hearing their journey added a beautiful layer of authenticity to the entire session.

After capturing the wild beauty of Punta Sur, we made our way to one of Isla Mujeres’ secluded beaches—a hidden gem ideal for romantic couples photography. The wind softened, the light turned warm and golden, and the atmosphere felt peaceful and private. Here, they walked barefoot in the sand, held each other close, and let the simple beauty of the island wrap around them.

Hayley and Larry’s Isla Mujeres couples session was more than a photoshoot—it was a celebration of a love rediscovered. If you’re dreaming of a destination wedding session, elopement photos, or a romantic beach photoshoot on Isla Mujeres, this island offers endless opportunities for breathtaking, meaningful images.
