A Romantic Photoshoot in Cabo San Lucas: What to Expect
If you’re heading to Cabo San Lucas and want to freeze some of those special moments with your partner, a Private Photoshoot for Couples in Playa Los Cabos might just be the perfect way to do it. For $350 per group (up to two people), you get about an hour of professional guidance on the beautiful beach of Los Cabos, with stunning ocean views as your backdrop. The session is led by Monarca Photography, and it’s a private experience, so no strangers sharing your shots.
What we love about this experience is how it captures the natural connection between couples in a relaxed setting. The stunning scenery, with the waves, sand, and sky, creates an ideal environment for genuine photos, not stiff poses. Also, the included bottled water is a nice touch, making sure you stay refreshed while enjoying the moment.
On the flip side, since this is a 1-hour session, it’s a quick snapshot of your time together — not a full-day adventure. If you’re expecting elaborate setups or multiple outfit changes, this might feel a bit limited.
This tour suits couples who want an authentic, beautiful keepsake of their trip, especially if you value personal guidance and a relaxed atmosphere. It’s ideal for honeymooners, anniversary travelers, or anyone celebrating their love in one of the most romantic places on earth.

The Details of a Cabo Couples Photoshoot
The Location: Playa Monumentos and Beyond
The meeting point is at Playa Monumentos along the Tourist Corridor in Cabo San Lucas. This spot is renowned for its picturesque scenery, with sweeping ocean views and the iconic rocks and formations that draw photographers and travelers alike. Starting here means your photos will capture Cabo’s signature charm from the get-go.
The shoot concludes back at the same meeting point, which simplifies logistics. Since the activity is only an hour long, it’s easy to fit into a day of exploring or relaxing on the beach afterward.
What the Session Looks Like
Once your guide — likely a professional photographer like Monarca — begins the session, they’ll help you with poses and moments that look natural. Expect to be guided through various angles and settings, possibly incorporating the waves, sandy shore, or even the coastline’s natural features.
The experience is more than just snapping photos; it’s about creating memories. You’ll be encouraged to enjoy the surroundings, feel relaxed, and have fun in front of the camera. Many reviews mention how the guide keeps it easygoing, which is perfect for couples who might feel a little camera-shy.
The Photographic Process
A one-hour session might sound brief, but it’s plenty of time to get a variety of shots. The photographer will focus on capturing genuine expressions, togetherness, and the natural beauty of Cabo’s landscape. You’re likely to leave with a collection of high-quality images that showcase your relationship amid stunning scenery.

What’s Included and What to Bring
Beyond the photos, the only extra perk is bottled water, helping you stay hydrated, especially if you’re visiting during warmer months. As it’s a private tour, you won’t be sharing the spotlight — your photos are all about you and your partner.
It’s advisable to wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing. Think light, breathable fabrics if it’s hot, and bring any accessories or props you might want to include in your photos.
Booking and Cancellation
Most bookings are made around 44 days in advance, so plan ahead if you want a spot. The tour offers free cancellation up to 24 hours before the scheduled time — a great feature if your plans change unexpectedly.
Why This Experience Is Worth Considering
We found that couples who choose this shoot will really appreciate the personalized guidance and the chance to get authentic, beautiful images without the pressure of a crowded studio or impersonal session. The stunning backdrop of Cabo’s beaches provides a naturally romantic setting that most couples find irresistible.
While the price of $350 isn’t cheap, it reflects the quality of the photographer, the private setting, and the potential for striking photographs. If you value high-quality images that you can cherish forever, this is a worthwhile expense.
Keep in mind, because it’s only an hour, it’s best for couples who want a quick, focused session rather than a full-day photoshoot. You should also be comfortable with a guided shoot and some posing — the photographer will help you look your best, but it’s a collaborative effort.
Who Will Love This Tour?

If you’re looking for lasting memories of your trip, and you enjoy the idea of personalized photography in a scenic spot, you’ll find this worth the investment. It’s particularly suited for those who want authentic, relaxed photos rather than overly staged or formal portraits.
Travelers who prefer a private, guided experience will appreciate the exclusivity and attention to detail. Conversely, if you’re seeking a more adventurous or group activity, this may not be the right fit.
