La Costa Photo Puerto Vallarta Wedding Photographer

About La Costa Photo Puerto Vallarta Wedding Photographer

Hello, I'm Alan de la Costa, the founder and lead photographer behind LA COSTA PHOTO Puerto Vallarta Wedding Photographer and destination wedding, a luxury destination wedding photography brand based in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

For more than 10 years, I have specialized in documenting destination weddings, intimate celebrations, luxury events, elopements, and lifestyle sessions throughout Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita, Punta Mita, San Pancho, Riviera Nayarit, and some of Mexico's most beautiful wedding destinations.

​

My photography journey includes over a decade of experience working alongside internationally recognized wedding photographers like a Tom Moks, documenting weddings for couples traveling from the United States, Japan & Europe, This experience has allowed me to photograph weddings in a wide variety of venues, cultures, and destinations while developing a storytelling approach focused on authentic emotion and timeless imagery.

​

Today, I work primarily with couples planning destination weddings in Puerto Vallarta and Riviera Nayarit. Many of my clients are traveling from the United States and Canada to celebrate their wedding in Mexico and are looking for a photographer who understands both the local wedding industry and the expectations of international couples.

My photography style combines natural light, documentary storytelling, and elegant portraiture. Rather than creating overly posed images, I focus on capturing genuine moments, meaningful connections, and the unique atmosphere of each wedding day. My goal is to create photographs that feel timeless, emotional, and authentic for generations to come.

​

I have had the privilege of photographing weddings at some of the most sought-after wedding venues in Mexico, including Teitiare Estate in Sayulita, Casa Karma in Puerto Vallarta, luxury villas in Punta Mita, beachfront resorts in Riviera Nayarit, and exclusive destination wedding venues throughout the Pacific Coast of Mexico.

Whether you are planning a luxury destination wedding in Punta Mita, a romantic beachfront wedding in Sayulita, an intimate celebration in Puerto Vallarta, or a multi-day wedding weekend in Riviera Nayarit, I am passionate about creating imagery that tells your story with honesty, beauty, and emotion.

​

During the summer months, I am also available for destination weddings and engagement sessions in Venice, Italy, allowing me to serve couples seeking extraordinary wedding experiences both in Mexico and Europe.

If you are searching for a Puerto Vallarta wedding photographer, Sayulita wedding photographer, Punta Mita wedding photographer, Riviera Nayarit wedding photographer, or destination wedding photographer in Mexico, I would love to learn more about your story and help preserve every meaningful moment of your celebration.
