Proposal photography · Cozumel
In short
Proposal photography in Cozumel starts at $200: 30 min on location with a photographer who works in Cozumel, and 20 edited photos delivered to a private gallery within 5 days.
Why choose proposal photography in Cozumel?
The Celarain Lighthouse at Punta Sur is the proposal location people picture on Cozumel: a white tower at the southern tip, a beach below it and reef water on three sides. It is also inside a park with opening hours, which is the detail that changes the plan. A proposal there happens in the afternoon, with the sun still well up, and works best with the tower behind the couple and the sea in front. Couples who want a sunset instead stay on the west coast, where the sun goes down over the channel, and the photographer waits on a public beach rather than inside a park.
Worth knowing about Cozumel
Parque Punta Sur lists its hours as Monday to Saturday, 9:00 to 17:00, and the earliest sunset of the year on Cozumel is about 18:06, in late November. A sunset proposal at the Celarain Lighthouse is therefore not possible on any day, and a Sunday visit is not listed at all; the photographer plans the question for around 15:30 to 16:00 in winter, when the light on the tower is lowest.
