Mexican Textiles shopping guide in Riviera Maya


| October 8, 2020

The Mexican culture is so rich and vibrant. It’s the result of the mixture of its ancient civilizations with Spanish influences. Mexican culture has undergone an incredible transformation during the last centuries, creating an identity that is recognizable all over the world.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="668"]


Though, nowadays, and especially in this touristic area of México, is sometimes difficult to buy authentic Mexican textiles. The area is quite full of piracy and if you are not an expert on the Mexican textile techniques, you could be paying for something made in China. That´s why we decided to create this guide to help you with your Mexican shopping.


Embroidering techniques

This is one of the most common mistakes we make when buying Mexican textiles without recognizing the techniques. As we mentioned earlier, Chinese pieces in this tourist area of ​​Mexico are everywhere and there are many embroideries that might look like Mexican but are really made outside of the country and do not contain any indigenous textile identity. It may seem a bit complex to distinguish these pieces from the originals but it is only a matter of reviewing the products and making the right decision.


1) Hand Embroidery

Hand-embroidered techniques are highly recognizable from those made by machine, from cross stitch techniques to the most famous Otomi Tenangos, the hand-made stitches are distinguishable if you check the inside of the garment. Finishing knots are very easily distinguishable when they are made by hand and machine-made pieces generally have an interlining on the back to give more rigidity to the stitches.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="669"]


2) Machine Embroidery in the communities

However, there are some communities in Mexico that also work with machine techniques. These embroideries are distinguished by their originality and colorful designs, mainly you can distinguish a non-original piece from a Mexican original elaborated with this technique thanks to the designs and the high degree of complexity. Although you may think that by not being an expert on the subject it will be very difficult to recognize the difference in these pieces, we will give you a tip, try to pay attention to the details since piracy pieces have very low quality in textiles and embroidery.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="670"]


3) Waist loom

The backstrap loom is one of the ancestral traditions of this culture, although there are different tool techniques, the result is very similar. They are elaborated thread by thread, literally, and the result is the textile that is used to create the garment, in order to add the embroidery and bronzing adorn figures that represent the history and meaning of their indigenous community.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="671"]


The vast majority of you can find in the Riviera Maya pieces made in the state of Chiapas or Oaxaca, such as blouses, dresses, or table runners. These pieces are made approximately in a period of 1 to 3 months depending on the size of the canvas and the complexity of the fabric design. The vast majority of these pieces contain the animal, floral and triangular graphics representing the mountains or valleys from which the artists originate. The problem in these pieces is that the consumer does not manage to value the time and effort of work and that is why day by day they are scarcer for consumers since most of the time they do not pay even $5 pesos a day for this work, and in the most extreme cases, even represents a loss for the artist since this technique is made by weaving thread by a thread on the loom and the amount of material used becomes more expensive for the craftsman than what the client is willing to pay and value the work.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="672"]


As we mentioned if you do not know the techniques hand in hand depending on the region, the Riviera Maya can be quite misleading if you are looking for original pieces but we recommend "Textiles Mayas Chiapas" in Playa del Carmen to find an authentic Mexican piece. Otherwise, you can follow this short guide and look for traveling artists so that they can earn more directly from your consumption.

Try to make a conscious decision when making your purchases, not only let yourself be guided by the prices and the false Mexican folklore since you will surely be spending your money on some pirated or low-quality piece.

Woman´s Posing Style Guide in Portobello Road


| October 4, 2020

Many times when we are in the middle of a photo session and we are not used to being in front of the camera, we can feel a bit uncomfortable. That is why we decided to make this guide with some examples of poses that can inspire you for your mini shoot in this location. Portobello Road is characterized by its elegant and colorful style. The walls, flowers, and colors that surround these brick streets are often the favorite for a feminine, urban London, and romantic setting.

Remember that it is very important to feel comfortable in your own skin so that this is reflected in the photograph, the more relaxed you are, the easier it will be to project the image you want in the photo.


Pink and Pose Portobello Road

This is an excellent example of girl power in a single photograph, this setting on Portobello Road is a favorite of the Pic ur Photo clients. This pink brick facade has been the scene of excellent examples of poses, as having the back of this colorful wall highlights the feminine confidence in the photo sessions. If this pose turns out to be an inspiration for your mini photoshoot, try to emphasize your hips by pushing it to the side and placing your hands on your waist. Showing a confident and flirtatious expression makes your features stand out in this painting.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="667"]


Movement and smile, the essentials for a photo with natural style

Portobello Road is the perfect setting to feel fresh and feminine. This photo example shows us the cobbled streets on Portobelo Road and its beautiful ivy and brick facades. The pose that this model shows us has an air of naturalness with a dreamy touch. A moving photo has to be natural if this is your goal. Try to think of a slow but continuous movement and always be attentive to the gesticulations of your face in order to achieve the perfect photo. A moving photo has to be natural if this is your goal. Try to think of a slow but continuous movement and always be attentive to the gesticulations of your face in order to achieve the perfect photo.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="666"]


Your confidence makes you glow

Choose a wall where you can relax your body. This scenario has the perfect bricked walls and shiny places where you can take advantage and inspire your confident self to come out to the camera. Make emphasis on what you are thinking while the camera is clicking. Do not overthink it, just feel your expression, and relax with it. This example has a magical and secret touch to it, those killer eyes...A hidden smile always does the work to complete a perfect pose.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="665"]


Flirt with the camera and love the result

One of the best known and heard secrets in the world of photography is having fun while posing for the camera. A flirty look and the result is amazing. Portobello Road is a place that will make you shine in your own skin, but it is important that you have fun while posing, give the lens a known name, this will help you feel relaxed. If you are looking for a cute and cute result at the same time, this is the formula that never fails.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="664"]


Your hair, the protagonist of the photo

Portobello Road is one of those settings that allows you to stand out against the pastel and lead blues around the street. The example we present to you is one of our favorites because when you sit and relax on this beautiful facade, you can have this result. When you can feel relaxed, you achieve what we call "posing without posing." A photo with naturalness and spontaneity is one of the best results you can expect in a photo session. Playing with your hair is one of the infallible ones, the secret is that the moment you make the head movement, try to keep a smile and your eyes looking at the camera, since many times, in the inertia of movement, we tend to close the eyes and the shot is lost.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="663"]


Pretty white dress Pose

Portobello Road is one of the favorite locations for those who love romantic style. From its ivy and flower-filled walls to its cobblestone floors and brick walls, this place will inspire your romantic senses. If your goal is a result similar to this, try to use your favorite dress in your favor, when you add a touch of movement and sheer fabrics to the photo, this is the result, if you want the photo to be about the dress, put your gaze on the canvas, or add an even more dreamy air, looking at the horizon or sky, not directly at the camera. Add a little more style to your photo by using a bag or hat as an accessory.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="662"]


Walk away and strike a pose

A beautiful photo, the sum of the Portobello Road style, and a fun mini-session. The most important thing in any shoot, professional model or not, is to have fun while capturing that moment. This location keeps a secret ingredient, its private and lonely streets. Here you will have the opportunity to bleach your hair and be creative in your poses. Walking and smiling is one of the classics that should not be missed, this not only helps your body look much more natural in the photo. Try to relax your arms while doing it, as if you walk overthinking your pose, this will immediately be reflected in your arms and hands. A photo in a 3/4 back profile will always be favorable, both in your features as well as in the style of the pose.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="661"]


Look away and smile away

For this type of photography, it is important to feel comfortable with the environment. This type of element in the photo, such as the flowerpot and a nice window, can be elements that help to achieve the photo you are looking for. Although they are quite simple elements, they help to add a feminine style to the photo. Lean your body against the wall, a very important and flattering tip is for your hips to lean slightly by slightly lifting one foot against the wall. If you want to achieve the effect that this example has, try not to raise your knee too much, because then it can easily turn into a pose with a somewhat more rough and masculine style, which works perfectly too, but if your style is something more similar to this, try to make the poses always more subtle.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="660"]


Perfect pose for a Sports lifestyle photoshoot

This part is one of our favorite locations if you are looking for a more sporty or even rockstar-like result. The gray oxford wall makes any model in front stand out, if you are looking for a space in which you can show off a less romantic and more urban style, this wall will be ideal if you are looking for this variety of scenarios in a single location. This photo is an excellent example of a sporty style pose. The model is relaxed, but her body is straight despite lifting it slightly on the wall, this helps the model's confidence stand out in the frame. Remember that a hidden smile on your face will always help lift your features. Try not to lift your face too high if the cameraman is lower than you. It is very important that you level the profile of your face if you are looking for this type of result.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="659"]



A female photoshoot can have different styles, but whichever you choose to try to keep in mind that the best photos are taken when you feel comfortable with your own skin. Portobello Road is one of our favorites, we hope this guide can inspire your posing style and find what makes you feel great!

Pic ur photo guide for a Male Posing Style in Portobello Road


| October 1, 2020

Many times when we are in the middle of a photo session and we are not used to being in front of the camera, we can feel a bit uncomfortable. That is why we decided to make this guide with some examples of poses that can inspire you for your mini shoot in this location. Portobello Road is characterized by its elegant and colorful style. The walls that surround these brick streets are often the favorite setting for a clean and casual look.

Remember that it is very important to feel comfortable in your own skin so that this is reflected in the photograph, the more relaxed you are, the easier it will be easier to project the image you want in the photo.



This example is one of the essentials within your selection. A big smile breaks all the barriers if you are somewhat shy. Try to convey that confidence in yourself through your smile if you decide to take this example literally, choose your favorite scenario and take a wall as a support to relax your body and add a touch of security, leaning one leg against the wall.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="631"]


If you are looking for a photo closer to your face, it is important to project your photo idea by looking at the camera. Try to imagine that you were looking directly at someone with whom you feel comfortable, at the same time that you relax your body using some elements that are around you such as a chair or wall on which you can lean. Try to always keep a relaxed face without forcing your gesticulations, since the lens can capture even the slightest discomfort on the face. a flirtatious and confident attitude like the one shown in this photograph will not fail to produce a spectacular photo.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="633"]


One of the reasons why we love this photograph is that the model transmits a confident attitude while interacting with its surroundings, which naturally causes a smile on its face.

If taking a sitting photo is among your goals, try to show your whole body to the camera and if you are at ground level, show your hands in front and always relaxed. Many times when we are in the middle of a photo session we forget a key element in the photographs: the hands, they can play against or in your favor depending on how attentive you can be of the element when posing. A male pose cannot be complete on many occasions if the model does not show one of the accessories that work as a support in male photo shoots, the wristwatch can be one of your greatest allies in a minishoot. Try to pay attention to how this element is shown in your photograph.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="629"]


Do not forget that the best photos are taken when you manage to project yourself in the frame so if you lean on your own style you will be able to feel comfortable when posing. We love this example that we show you since the model integrates movement and elements of his wardrobe to achieve a natural and spontaneous pose. As we mentioned in the previous example, the use of your hands is very important for the pose to be complete. Don't forget that a smile will always make your features and personality shine in the photograph.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="634"]


This photo is shown in a frame close to the model and is used to create a fun atmosphere using the background colors and an excellent attitude on the part of the model when he appears relaxed and happy in the photo. If you are looking to make a pose fixing the attention of your horizon gaze of your cameraman, try to think about aligning your face towards the camera and looking away. This will help flatter your profile but achieve a natural and spontaneous pose at the same time.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="630"]


The example that we present here is a classic of masculine poses. Using the pockets of your pants as support to generate a more natural pose will never fail for your objectives. Placing yourself well positioned with your back straight and your arms relaxed is essential to be able to achieve a good photo, And how can you see the model in this example is looking to the side without neglecting where the camera lens is directed. You can align your body slightly towards your favorite profile.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="636"]


The model is very relaxed in front of the camera and uses the wall on his side to show his body completely frontally, leaning it slightly towards the wall as support to achieve a more confident pose. Remember that it is very important if you are in a frame close to your camera to try to relax the frown of your face as much as possible and try to put shyness aside as this will be evident in the result. As in the previous example, the model uses the pockets of his pants to put his attention on his hands and on the camera in front of him so that nothing in his posture reflects any discomfort.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="632"]


Portobello Road has scenarios with very elegant colors and this is something that you should take advantage of in your photo session. At Pic ur Photo, we use this photography spot as one of the most elegant in this setting, and it is ideal for male photo shoots. Use the elements that are around you, as in this example, the model interacts with one of the armchairs and places itself comfortably, focusing its posture on showing its confidence and comfort with the accessories it uses. It is important that even if you perform a sitting pose you are always aware of the posture of your back.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="638"]


The example that we present here shows us a spontaneous pose that transmits security and movement. a male photo session cannot be complete without using your hands in your favor as in this example, this pose is one of your essentials to show a masculine attitude, showing your hands in front of the camera is synonymous with security and a classic in men's poses. Again, is the perfect pose to show your favorite wristwatch in the photo.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="637"]


If what you are looking for in one of your photographs is to show your favorite profile, and you cannot feel very comfortable standing in front of the camera, look for a spot where you can sit to be sideways to the camera, remember that you include a sure look of relaxed face the result will be much more flattering.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="635"]


A male photo session is for a relaxed and casual style so you are looking for an elegant result. It is important that you have these two ideas in your head while you perform the different poses that inspire you. remember that the best style is the one that reflects your personality.

London, a place where magical things can happen, and if we talk about photo locations, well this is the place where Pic ur Photo was born, the place that inspired us to get you in the frame!

London´s vibe has a very special filling. We decided to create this article to take you to all our available special photo spots inside this city. From the prettiest neighborhoods to the amazing Tower Bridge and locations that contain the most amazing architecture of the City. We will show you where the magic mini shoots happen, what outfit could work, and how to get there. Also some of our best photo examples for you to get an idea of what will be the result If you book your photo session.



Portobello Road

Portobello Road is one of London’s best-kept secrets because, in terms of fame, it’s overshadowed by neighboring Notting Hill, but it has all the elegance and beauty, plus a little extra diversity. This place does well when you wear smart casual with a slach of colors..but it also has a quirky Brick Lane-esque side to it.


[pinPicBlogInclusion id="625"]


Neal's Yard

Neal's Yard is one of the most hidden “must-go's” on all of Instagram. You could walk right by one of the entrances if you don't know where you're going, but it's one of the most colorful places in London, with vibrant blues and oranges good enough to make even your day shine.

This is a dynamic area, but the vibe that works best is the "artist" type. If you love baggy jumpers, overalls, or splatter paint on yourself, this is your spot. Even if you don't though, there's a spot for you here..just wear what makes you feel uppity.


[pinPicBlogInclusion id="628"]


Notting Hill

Richmond Riverside

Richmond is a beautiful pocket in Southwest London, with scenic riverside sunsets, green pastures, and hundreds of years old buildings.

Belgravia does well when you wear smart casual with "pretty" colors, especially blue, pink, and all the pastel list of colors you have in your closet.


[pinPicBlogInclusion id="621"]


London Bridge

The Square Mile (Monument/Bank) is the main and historic Financial District of London. Home to the Stock Exchange and the Bank of England, it’s great for formal shoots, and people who want to look professional. It also has incredible river views with historic buildings like the Shard and Tower Bridge in the background.

Sloane Square is the perfect picture of historical London, complete with centuries-old buildings, colorful architecture, and Sloane Square is right at the center of it. Set in Chelsea, Sloane Square is the perfect combination of elegance and class that will set you apart.

You and I both know this is the poshest place in London, where you need a bottle of champagne and 7 crumpets just to enter. Wear something nice...but not too nice. Smart-casual, with a little bit of color, do well here. There's a lot of white, so try and stand out against it a bit.


[pinPicBlogInclusion id="615"]


Brick Lane

Brick Lane is one of the coolest places in London, or so they say. Quirky, Hip, ...you know, cool. Brick Lane is perfect for those of you who prefer a little adventure, like rough edges, but also the best beer and coffee in town. Quirky, hip, retro, bright colors? They all do well here.


[pinPicBlogInclusion id="623"]


Covent Garden

Covent Garden is an iconic piece of London history and culture, and it also puts on one of the best Christmas displays in the city, so we’ve chosen it just for this special occasion. Covent Garden is extremely dynamic, with spots for professionals and creatives alike. Some spots go best with pristine white sweaters, while others are great with Jackson Pollock jumpers.

Soho

Soho is just a little bit of everything. Do you want Bank-like professional shots? Soho. Rustic or Retro, 70’s style? Soho. Futuristic 2070’s feeling? Soho again.

Photography icons in Mexico City


| August 12, 2020

Mexico City is a place that tells stories on its own, and every corner bears witness to the passage of time and the significance of this place. The historic center is the best example of this. The history of this city is visible in its constructions from pre-Hispanic times to the present day. The color of this city is painted from its roots to the bustle of urban folklore and its people.

In this list, we present the best places to take pictures worthy of storytelling.

Alameda Central

The Alameda Central is one of the main avenues of Mexico City in addition to its recognized historical landmarks such as the hemicycle to Juárez and a perfect building for a beautiful photograph. If you are lucky, you will find that in spring, this avenue turns purple thanks to the jacaranda trees that adorn the streets of Mexico City during this season.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="604"]


Chinatown

As you may have already noticed if you took a look at our articles on New York, we also talk about Chinatown, well this metropolis also has its own Chinatown in the Downtown area. This is a trade area from this country, and many Chinese merchants settled, as in NY, with restaurants, shops, and all kinds of commerce. It is a very picturesque area and contrasts with the central urban spirit of this area, and it is a lovely spot to take a beautiful photo.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="606"]

Palace of Fine Arts"Bellas Artes"

The emblematic Palacio de Bellas Artes is the cultural venue considered the most important in the manifestation of the arts in Mexico and one of the most renowned opera houses in the world. This is a sacred place for musicians and artists in the country. This construction, in itself, is an exquisite work of art and an observer's delight. This lavish museum and theater built in marble, which includes murals by Diego Rivera and other artists, have to be on your list to visit and delve deeper into Mexican culture.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="607"]


Quetzalcoatl's nest

This place is completely amazing. It's like being in the Aztec version of Alice in Wonderland. El Nido was designed by the Mexican architect Javier Senosiain and is one of the leading examples of so-called organic architecture. And this photo is just one example of what you will see because inside you will find a ceiling of colored glass that will blow your mind.
It is not located in the historical center area, and it is necessary to make an appointment for the guided tour. But we believe it is worth the try.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="608"]


Gates of the “Palacio Nacional”

The National Palace is located right in front of the Zócalo plate. This space contains many stories of Mexican politics and is where the president gives the traditional cry of Independence. The architecture of this space and most of the historic center belongs to the time of the Spanish conquest. The magnificence of this door is ideal for a beautiful photograph.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="609"]



“Templo Mayor”

As surprising as this place in the middle of the city may seem, it is home to pre-Hispanic Aztec ruins, a place that bears the name of Templo Mayor. It is a museum of Ruins right next to the Metropolitan Cathedral and National Palace, in front of the flat plate. The photo option that we present to you, it is located in the "El Mayor" Restaurant Terrace, ideal to end the tour of the Historical Center area.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="610"]


México City or also known as CDMX, is indeed a very special City, and it takes some time to get to know it but totally worth it!

Holbox most inspiring locations to take incredible photography


| August 6, 2020

An interesting fact is that Holbox is almost on the border between two seas, but it is more on the side of the Gulf of Mexico than the Caribbean. That is why its waters shine in green and blue colors that merge to give a turquoise horizon. It is the temporary home of the whale shark for much of the year and this makes Holbox a bioluminescence paradise from May to September. It is the ideal resting place but, at the same time, you will lack the time to enjoy live music and the places to visit. So have your camera always ready because you will surely see things that will catch your attention and you will not find them on this list.

But do not worry, here we present you the list that will make you take with you the best memories of the beautiful settings that this place offers to the viewer.

Passion Island

We start with one of the most impressive places in Holbox. This Islet is home to more than a great variety of bird species that you will be able to observe from a viewpoint that you can get to on a Boat Tour, which will take you to visit several important points of this paradise. Among the species that you can catch are flamingos, frigates, cormorants, seagulls, and pelicans.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="585"]


Punta Cocos

It is the western tip of the island. One of the most famous points on the island, which you can reach by walking along the shore of the beach (about 40 minutes from the town), or inside the mangroves on a motorcycle taxi. But the recommendation is that you do it in the morning or to see the sunset from this point, if you decide to walk on the beach you can capture other points with hammocks and fantastic photo murals.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="586"]


Sunset

The sunsets are the most magical thing in Holbox, each sunset offers a different show of colors, and each one is special, we recommend having the camera ready in each one of them. It can be a cloudy day or the sky is completely clear but what is definitive is that this is one of the best scenarios that the Island offers for photos.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="587"]


Yalahau Waterhole

Not everything is sea and salt in Holbox, and swimming in fresh and freshwater like that of the Yalahau water hole, is another of the surprises it offers you. This place can be part of the tour that will take you to Isla Pájaros. This waterhole will be a delicious adventure to cool off and enjoy a bit of the fresh waters of the area. You can take a direct tour of the waterhole or one of the tours that will take you to the rest of the reserves in the area. I recommend arriving early because after 11 in the morning and high season the tourists of the place will be the main actors in your photos.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="589"]


Swings by the seaside of Holbox

Holbox swings have become one of the main attractions for Instagram photos. And it is for those who do not find the scene of being in the middle of paradise enjoying water, sun, and a refreshing drink or simply being present on this stage to enjoy the view. Many places offer you this option such as Punta Coco or Zomay, which is the local's favorite bar to enjoy the sunset.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="590"]


Hammocks by the sea in Holbox

Hammocks, like swings, are an excellent photography item. The sight of a hammock in the middle of the beach will be something that your followers will not be able to resist. Like the swings, you will find this option around the island, it will only be enough to consume in some cases, or others, they are part of some hotels that do not allow the use of visitors.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="591"]


Sand Banks

There are several sandbanks on the island but the most visited area by the Hotel Las Nubes de Holbox and in Punta Coco, the recommendation is to arrive early by bicycle since you can take a taxi there (about $ 60MEX) but the detail will be the return since it is in the most remote areas. If you are a Yoga lover, this place will surely inspire you to create a whole posture session.

[pinPicBlogInclusion id="593"]



Holbox is more than a beautiful photograph, Holbox is a place that if you allow it will change you from the fibers, in this place you can not only see wonderful things but also feel them. It is a place to contemplate how wonderful the planet we live on is. and how wonderful it is to be alive. The music, the murals, the people, and that sea will go with you not only in photography but in the heart ...
