In the short time I was in Playa Del Carmen for Steph and Rod’s wedding, I managed to take some photos of the locals and other fun stuff. Here are my favorites…
This was the view outside my hotel room…
The morning of our Trash The Dress session we were walking along the beach and I turned around and saw this. I literally took the photo with my camera behind my back. Talk about lucky!
A local Peacock…
A night shot of the hotel. It was gorgeous out there!!
I also played around with some motion blur at the shore my first night (the lights are coming from Cancun)…
I went to a tequila tasting in town because I wanted to get a really great bottle for Kirk. Of course, I forgot about the 3 ounce rule at the airport and tried to bring it on board with me (I didn’t want it to break in my suitcase), and it was confiscated from me at the security line. I cried. This is the only record I have of Kirk’s awesome tequila…
Local Mariachi performers I ran into on the steps…
My sister-in-law Tracy and I were serenaded by a GREAT singer at lunch time in town. We requested “Guantanamera” and he was awesome!
My sister-in-law, Tracy having a pina colada (she’ll probably kill me for posting this but I love this shot!)…
Our singer’s tip blew off the table and onto the street below. I figured it was a lost cause, so I wasn’t worried. We mentioned it to our waiter and he instantly ran down to find it. Sure enough he saved the day! I ended up just telling him to keep it for the effort (what great service!). Here’s a shot of him below us…
The entertainment at the hotel was awesome! It started with a Mr. Universe competition and ended with great dancing from lots of popular movies…
This one cracked me up because one of the competitors was a little heavier, so he needed a little help during the push up part of the competition…
“The Full Monty”…
This was from “Titanic.” It was hilarious!
