Marcela Cerbón, the creative force leading MC Weddings, brings more than a decade of experience in capturing the essence of the most heartfelt moments. Her journey into the realm of photography began in 2009, transitioning from high-profile fashion campaigns to the intimate world of wedding photography. And as soon as Marcela dipped her toes into the wedding waters, and there was no turning back.
The style of MC Weddings is distinctively editorial, marked by a flair that captures each moment with depth and drama. This approach isn't just about preserving memories; it's about elevating them into art. "We find our inspiration from the artistry of film photography, pursuing images that withstand the test of time," Marcela explains. "In our work, we make it a priority to honor the authenticity of true colors, ensuring that each photograph encapsulates the essence of the moment in a manner that transcends fleeting trends and fads."
The team's dedication to their craft is evident in their choice of equipment, utilizing top-tier Sony cameras for digital captures and embracing the classic feel of film with Leica and Canon.
MC Weddings is meticulous in preparing for each event, ensuring a personalized and seamless experience for every couple. "We strive to establish a comfortable shoot environment to put our couples at ease in front of the camera. The photos and videos we capture as a result reflect their true personality and chemistry," she says. "Prior to the wedding, we send out a questionnaire to understand the specific requirements and preferences of the couple. This allows us to tailor the photography experience to meet their needs and ensure that every moment is captured exactly as they envision."
This level of detail facilitates creating a comfortable environment during shoots, which Marcela believes is crucial for capturing genuine moments. "Connection. It's what love is founded on. And it's also what we seek through photos and films — a chance to return to the parts of our story where we felt the most alive."
With a base in the picturesque landscapes of Los Cabos and a penchant for capturing destination weddings, MC Weddings has chronicled love stories from the lively streets of New York to the serene settings of California and the historic beauty of San Miguel de Allende.
MC Weddings share their recommendation for couples: "Plan ahead by creating a detailed timeline and sharing it with vendors to ensure a smooth flow of events on your big day. Delegate tasks to trusted friends or family. Embrace imperfections, understanding that not everything will go according to plan; cherish the unexpected moments as they create lasting memories."
Each wedding is not just an event but an adventure that MC Weddings embarks on with their clients, making their services not just sought after but truly unparalleled in the world of wedding photography.
