My Cancun Photography Reviews

David did a fantastic job from start to finish! Helping plan out the perfect moment for me and my now fiancée. He made sure that we would keep it a surprise and in the pictures, it sure shows that.
We showed up a bit earlier than what was said but he still got right to work and made us feel comfortable. He took the most beautiful shots and we absolutely loved them. He made the big moment very special and now we will have that special memory with us forever thanks to David! -Edwin

David was kind, caring, considerate, and incredible! From the first contact to the day of our shoot, he had excellent communication, even providing tips on how to get around to our photo locations and offering to take us from one place to another. And the photos are to die for!
Amazing work, and hope to work with him again! If you're in Tulum or Cancun, David is the perfect photographer 🙂 -Yajur

I can't say enough great things about David. He was very responsive, flexible, friendly and professional. I am totally in love with our pictures. We had a group of 20ish, and he got great pictures of us as a group and smaller groups, pictures on the beach, and even got pictures with my 4-month-old grandbaby with ease. Book with David, you will not be disappointed! -Darlene

David was a great communicator and very professional from start to finish. He provided a location that was close to our resort with beautiful ocean views. He was so accommodating when something came up for us last minute which was greatly appreciated.
The shoot ran so well as he made us feel comfortable as he provided poses and lots of feedback. And to top it off he utilized his drone for additional shots which was so thoughtful of him.
The timeliness, professionalism, and friendliness of David will definitely make booking with him worth your time! -Olivia

David was AMAZING from start to finish!! He arrived as scheduled and without delay he went to work organizing and setting the tone for what turned out to be a phenomenal photo-shoot with 12 ladies!! David captured so many shots of us. He made us feel very comfortable and our photos showed it!! -Taneshia

We had a Proposal in Cancun, Mexico. Marriage proposal happens only once so I wanted to capture each and every moment of it and could not ask better than local lens photographer! It was an amazing experience with David as he made us both feel very comfortable and he went above and beyond to make it happen as I booked it at the very last minute and he even arranged to pick us both from the resort and took us on a very beautiful private beach for the photoshoot. Pictures turned out to be great. Highly recommend David for the future photoshoots, very professional and knows what he is doing. Everything went pretty well. -Paras

We had a Proposal in Isla Mujeres to make the moment extra special! Couldn't have been happier, especially considering the current global pandemic. Was a little confused how to start the planning process. But once I messaged David everything went well! -Guiseppe

The photoshoot was amazing, we had so much fun. The resort was trying to charge me a crazy fee to allow my photographer to come onsite, but we found a way to make it work and oh my. ..... Such a blessing. -Tonga

It went fantastic! -Janine

We met online, and I knew she was the one when I came to visit her and never left. Nor wanted to. Because I love the beach background. It was a surprise, it went perfectly she had no clue thanks to the great planning of my photographer. -Braxten

I decided to do it in Mexico when we had the chance to really disconnect from the hustle and bustle and technology. I knew MVNGATA boutique resort would be a nice intimate setting to do it and it definitely didn't disappoint. For the proposal I had David arranged to come to the hotel on Friday and go to the roof. He was in the background acting like a regular customer, taking selfies and just hanging out when we came up. I walked my then GF to the front of the pool and asked her for a photo and David jumped out as I got to one knee and began an absolutely amazing photoshoot! -John

So, on our anniversary, following 2 years of bliss my best friend made me happier than I've ever been before when she said yes, on a beautiful beach in the Mexican sun. Engaged to my wonderful and gorgeous, JJuliana Rammé de Souza. A surprise proposal for my girlfriend under the guise of an anniversary photoshoot. -Fraser

We booked a shoot because we wanted to memorialize our time together as a family. The photoshoot went great. David Carranza was our photographer, and he did a fantastic job. We met at 5 pm to get sunset shots along the beach. He directed us quickly, which was essential with a 1.5-year-old toddler. Very quick, and easy, and the photos were amazing! We'd definitely use Local Lens again if all experiences are like the one we had with David. -Jasmine
