Sunset Day of the Dead Photo Shoot (Face Painting NOT Included)
Commemorate your time in Oaxaca with this one of kind opportunity to capture the Day of the Dead season in images. We will take you from Tlayudona to one or more nearby sites that will make for the best scenic shoot. These sites can include fields of “flores de muerto” (small yellow flowers often used locally on altars instead of the more internationally-recognizable marigolds) or abandoned adobe haciendas. All of the sites are within 35 minutes of the city center.
Our professional local photographer, Adiv, is a close friend of ours here at Tlayudona and he will help you feel comfortable. You can check out some of his work here!
Out in the campo, you´ll meet our local hosts, Claudia and/or her partner Roberto, who will accompany you to their village’s sites (with permission of their community of course)!

- Round-trip transportation from/to Tlayudona in the city center (or you can talk to us about picking you up from your central location).
