About Víctor Herrera – Mexico Wedding Photographer
More Than a Photographer — A Visual Storyteller and Filmmaker
I’m Víctor Herrera, a wedding photographer and filmmaker with a passion for turning real moments into cinematic memories. Born with a love for light, emotion, and storytelling, I’ve spent the last 18 years capturing weddings across Mexico, the Riviera Maya, Cancun, and beyond.
What makes my work unique is not just what I see through the lens—but how I feel it.
Based Between San Cristóbal & Cancun
While many know me as a Cancun wedding photographer, I divide my time between San Cristóbal de las Casas, a magical town full of culture and mysticism, and the sunlit shores of Cancun and Riviera Maya, where I photograph destination weddings.
This balance allows me to bring something rare to my photography—a fusion of cinematic elegance, cultural depth, and raw emotion.
In San Cristóbal, I direct and produce independent films and documentaries. These cinematic roots are deeply reflected in my photographic style: expressive, artistic, and timeless.
My Style: Cinematic, Emotional, Real
I approach each wedding like a film. There’s a script (your story), a set (your venue), characters (you and your loved ones), and countless beautiful, unscripted moments.
No stiff poses. No generic edits. Just authentic storytelling, captured with an editorial eye.
Every click of my shutter is guided by emotion—because your love deserves to be told like a masterpiece.

My name is Victor Herrera
Photography has been a cherished tradition in my family for three generations, driven by a deep passion for capturing moments. I believe in the power of love to transcend all barriers—distance, race, color, or language. This belief fuels my dedication to wedding photography.
For the past 15 years, I’ve shared life’s journey with my wife, Sara, and now with our son, David. Our travels to places like Antigua, Guatemala, and San Cristóbal de las Casas in Chiapas enrich our lives and inspire my work.
As a Cancun wedding photographer, I’m inspired by the artistry of Emmanuel Lubezki and the profound beauty in everyday experiences. Whether it’s the taste of Chiapas peaches or the majesty of a star-filled sky, I strive to capture the world’s joy and wonder in every photograph.
