Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya

Molly Mia Photography + Film

Jodie and Dan fell in love and became engaged during the pandemic, but rather than feeling down about it, they made the absolute best wedding plans they possibly could and took their closest friends and family to Riviera Maya, Mexico to elope by the sea and under the sun! I was lucky enough to be their destination wedding videographer, and I spent several days with Jodie and Dan capturing all their fun and adventure-- from swimming with sea turtles to enjoying a campfire on the beach, it was all so lovely.

We have always been fascinated with the magic of cinema, 
Of how a moment that got recorded a long time ago, wakes emotions 
and relive times that could have been forgotten, but they were not.

Through the trail that fate has drawn, 
paths must be traced to share with 
unexpected people.
We are collectors of moments...
