<h1 dir="ltr" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">A Houston Wedding Filled with Tex-Mex Soul</h1>
Hey there, I&rsquo;m David, your destination wedding photographer, here to share the magic of Ale and Ben&rsquo;s love story in the heart of Houston. There&rsquo;s a certain Tex-Mex rhythm to this city&mdash;a blend of warmth, vibrancy, and heart&mdash;that made their day unforgettable. I was there to capture every beat of it, from the quiet glances to the big, joyful tears.
&nbsp;
Ale and Ben&rsquo;s wedding was pure love in motion. The air buzzed with emotion, and I felt it in every frame I shot&mdash;the way they looked at each other during their first look, the way they held on tight during their first dance. It was all so real, so them. I poured my heart into capturing those moments, blending my editorial style with the raw, soulful charm I&rsquo;ve honed over years of shooting weddings across Mexico and beyond.
&nbsp;
The day came together beautifully thanks to an incredible team. The event planner, @edgarsaenzwp, and wedding producer, @brendalueeventos, worked their magic at the stunning @belltowerhouston, with dreamy d&eacute;cor by @floraleventshouston. The bride glowed in a gown from @pronovias, paired with a sharp tuxedo from @giorgioarmani for the groom, captured in motion by the talented videographers at @lightninglovefilms. The evening was electric with music by @dj_navarro, a show-stopping cake from @whomadethecake.htx, and the bride&rsquo;s radiant look by @aidamurguia and @aztecsusa. Rentals and a fun photobooth from @houstonphotoboothco added the perfect festive touch.
&nbsp;
For me, photography is about telling a story&mdash;your story. It&rsquo;s about the laughter, the tears, the way your family&rsquo;s traditions weave into your day. Ale and Ben&rsquo;s wedding was a celebration of love, friendship, and roots, and I felt honored to document it. As a multilingual photographer fluent in English, Spanish, French, and Italian, I connect deeply with couples from all over, bringing a personal, heartfelt approach to every wedding I shoot, whether it&rsquo;s in Houston, Punta de Mita, or a chateau in France.
&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re dreaming of a wedding gallery that feels as alive as your love, let&rsquo;s make it happen. I&rsquo;m here to capture your day with heart, elegance, and maybe a touch of film magic if that&rsquo;s your vibe. Ready to start this journey together?

<h1 dir="ltr" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">The Soulful Art of Film Wedding Photography</h1>
As a destination wedding photographer, I pour my heart into capturing love stories with the timeless magic of film. Analog photography is where I found my passion&mdash;growing up with the soft click of a camera and the thrill of developing rolls taught me to see love through a lens of authenticity and emotion. For me, film isn&rsquo;t just a medium; it&rsquo;s a way to create soulful, nostalgic images that feel like heirlooms. While I use digital to ensure versatility, it&rsquo;s the artistry of film that sets my work apart, offered as a special add-on for couples who vibe with its unique charm.
&nbsp;
Film photography brings a warmth and texture that&rsquo;s unmatched. The organic grain, rich colors, and gentle imperfections weave a story that feels alive, like a memory you can touch. Every frame is deliberate, capturing fleeting moments&mdash;whether it&rsquo;s a quiet glance during vows in San Miguel de Allende or a joyful dance under starlight in Positano&mdash;with a depth that transcends trends. For couples who dream of a wedding gallery that evokes the romance of a bygone era, my analog work delivers a keepsake that grows more precious with time.
&nbsp;
Offering film as a premium add-on lets me craft something truly bespoke. It&rsquo;s for the couple who sees their love as art, who wants their wedding photos to carry the same weight as a cherished vinyl record or a handwritten letter. My multilingual skills in English, Spanish, French, and Italian help me connect deeply with clients worldwide, ensuring a personal, seamless experience. Whether you&rsquo;re planning an intimate elopement in Tulum or a grand celebration in a Italian Villa, I&rsquo;m here to capture your day with the soulful beauty of film.
&nbsp;
The process of shooting analog is a ritual in itself. From loading the film to waiting for the lab to reveal the images, every step is infused with anticipation and care. If the nostalgic, emotive vibe of film speaks to you, let&rsquo;s create a wedding gallery that&rsquo;s as timeless as your love. Reach out to explore how we can add this artistic touch to your day.

A Love Story Captured: Katherin and Joel&rsquo;s Destination Wedding in Punta de Mita, Mexico
As an international wedding photographer specializing in destination weddings in Mexico, I&rsquo;ve had the privilege of capturing countless love stories in breathtaking settings. One that holds a special place in my heart is the wedding of Katherin and Joel, a vibrant couple from California who celebrated their union in the stunning coastal paradise of Punta de Mita, Mexico. As we approach their first anniversary, I&rsquo;m thrilled to share their journey&mdash;a story that began with a bottle of wine in Napa Valley and culminated with whales as witnesses to their &ldquo;I do&rdquo; on a Mexican beach.
&nbsp;
A Napa Valley Connection at Charles Krug Winery
Before the wedding festivities began, I had the pleasure of meeting Katherin and Joel in St. Helena, Napa Valley, at the iconic Charles Krug Winery. Over glasses of exquisite wine, we spent a sun-drenched California afternoon getting to know each other. The rolling vineyards and warm golden light created the perfect backdrop for our first connection. This relaxed session wasn&rsquo;t just about photography&mdash;it was about building trust and understanding their vision for their dream wedding. Those hours in Napa set the tone for what would become an unforgettable experience in Mexico.
&nbsp;

&nbsp;
A Dream Destination Wedding in Punta de Mita
Fast forward to their wedding day in Punta de Mita, a luxurious coastal gem on Mexico&rsquo;s Pacific Riviera Nayarit. Known for its pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and vibrant culture, Punta de Mita was the ideal setting for Katherin and Joel&rsquo;s destination wedding. The day was nothing short of magical. As they exchanged vows on the beach, a pod of whales breached in the distance, as if nature itself was celebrating their love. The golden hour light bathed the scene, and every moment&mdash;from their heartfelt vows to the joyous reception&mdash;was infused with the warmth and beauty of Mexico.
As a photographer, capturing these moments felt like storytelling at its finest. The vibrant colors of the Pacific sunset, the couple&rsquo;s radiant love, and the natural splendor of Punta de Mita all came together to create timeless images that Katherin and Joel will cherish forever.
&nbsp;
Why Choose a Destination Wedding in Mexico?
Katherin and Joel&rsquo;s wedding is a perfect example of why Mexico destination weddings are so special. Locations like Punta de Mita offer unparalleled beauty, combining tropical elegance with cultural richness. Whether it&rsquo;s the serene beaches, luxurious resorts, or the chance to create a multi-day experience for your guests, Mexico delivers an unforgettable backdrop for love stories. As a photographer who specializes in these celebrations, I&rsquo;m passionate about capturing every detail&mdash;from the emotional vows to the spontaneous moments that make each wedding unique.
&nbsp;
Celebrating Their First Anniversary
As Katherin and Joel near their first wedding anniversary, I&rsquo;m reminded of the joy and privilege of being part of their journey. From our wine-filled afternoon in Napa Valley to their whale-witnessed vows in Punta de Mita, their love story is one for the ages. Their wedding photos serve as a timeless reminder of the magic of that day, and I&rsquo;m honored to have played a role in preserving those memories.

Love's Journeys: Napa's Vines to Punta de Mita's Waves

As the dawn light gently filled the boutique hotel room, the bride found herself amidst a flurry of heartfelt preparations. Her mother, daughter, and best friend, their faces glowing with anticipation and joy, assisted her with the final touches. Laughter and quiet tears mingled as they helped her adjust the veil and smooth the creases of her dress. After a long journey together, the day they had been dreaming of had at last arrived, and it felt just right.
&nbsp;
The historic La Medalla Milagrosa in Torre&oacute;n provided the ideal backdrop for their ceremony.

Their loved ones, who had come from near and far, stood witness to their promises.

As the celebration continued to Rancho San Carlos, it was as if wedding planner Edgar Saenz had worked some enchantment under the pecan trees. The orchard was transformed into an incredible luxurious venue. The understated elegance of the florals blended effortlessly with the rustic charm of the grove.

The reception was a sight to behold. Crisp linens were adorned with accents of emerald green and black, creating a striking contrast.

As darkness descended, one of northern Mexico's finest bands played, and the guests found themselves swaying to the music amid the pecan trees.

The wedding wasn't about grandeur or extravagance. It was about them, about their love, and about the life they were building together. From the orchard ceremony to the last dance, every moment was a testament to their love &ndash; robust, deep-rooted, and enduring. It was under those pecan trees, surrounded by their loved ones, that they began their new chapter, just as it should be, together.

David was amazing! From the initial meeting to the day of the delivery his attitude made the experience really fun.

We love all the moments captured from our engagement session to the day of our wedding. Thank you David :)

David Lack made our wedding day the best! He pivoted smoothly when we decided to take our pictures indoors due to the heat, and he made all our guests feel comfortable in their own skin. He is a true professional with great insight into unique photographs. David and his team also worked overtime to perfectly capture our wedding on and off the dance floor. We highly recommend David Lack for any of your photography needs!

There are moments in life that feel like they belong to a larger story, and this wedding on the Amalfi Coast was one of them. I found myself in the picturesque town of Positano, camera in hand, capturing the union of Nancy and Edgar&mdash;a couple whose love felt as boundless as the Mediterranean Sea before us. This destination wedding was a three-day celebration, a journey through Italy&rsquo;s most enchanting landscapes, where every detail spoke of connection and joy.
&nbsp;
The first day began in Positano, where I photographed the couple amidst the town&rsquo;s sun-kissed streets. Friends and family gathered, their laughter mingling with the aroma of Italian cuisine, setting the tone for a weekend of warmth. The second day unfolded in Capri, a pre-wedding session that felt like a dream&mdash;Nancy and Edgar&rsquo;s joy illuminated the island&rsquo;s rugged beauty, making every frame a treasure. The final day brought us to Villa Cimbrone in Ravello, a venue that seemed to belong to a fairy tale. Perched atop a cliff, the villa offered panoramic views of the azure sea, a perfect backdrop for their vows. The ceremony flowed from lush gardens to the grand terrace, culminating in a celebration filled with music, dance, and the elegance of the Crypt of Villa Cimbrone.
&nbsp;
What moved me most was the authenticity of their love. Every moment&mdash;whether a quiet glance or a shared laugh&mdash;told a story of devotion. As a luxury wedding photographer, I felt privileged to preserve these unscripted emotions, capturing the essence of their day through my editorial lens.
