Why choose trash the dress session in Guanajuato?
Guanajuato is a ravine city of stairs and callejones where a callejoneada is legally a public show: municipal permit, 75 people at most, Friday or Saturday from 20:00. That is what decides how a session is planned here: the photographer you work with lives in Guanajuato and works across Guanajuato all year, so they are not seeing the place for the first time alongside you. That prior knowledge is the difference between a session that keeps to its schedule and one spent looking for a frame.
The hour matters more than the location. For Callejón del Beso, the window to aim for is weekday mornings before 10:00, before the tour groups. The session runs 2 hours and is built around that window rather than around your diary — it is the one variable that genuinely changes the photographs, and it costs nothing.
What does the session in Guanajuato look like?
The typical session runs 2 hours across two locations: we start at Callejón del Beso and move on to Mirador del Monumento al Pípila. Two locations rather than one give you two distinct backdrops, and the move between them produces the frames made in motion — frequently the truest of the set.
