Wedding Photographer in Costa Rica – Available Across the Country
As a destination wedding photographer Costa Rica, I photograph weddings, elopements, and vow renewals all across Costa Rica. From jungle waterfalls to golden coastlines, volcanic landscapes to serene Caribbean shores, every location becomes part of your love story.
No matter the place, wherever your love takes you, I’ll be there to tell your story — beautifully, authentically, and with soul.
To illustrate, my work takes me through some of the most breathtaking destinations in Costa Rica. From the towering majesty of Arenal Volcano and La Fortuna to the lush beauty of La Paz Waterfall Gardens and the enchanting Peace Lodge, every location offers its own magic.
On the other hand, on the Caribbean side, I often find myself capturing love stories in the laid-back paradise of Puerto Viejo and the pristine beaches of Punta Uva in Limón.
Similarly, over on the Central and South Pacific coast, I serve couples in places like Puntarenas, the surf towns of Jacó, Santa Teresa, Malpaís, and Montezuma, the rainforest-draped coastline of Manuel Antonio and Quepos, and the untouched beauty of Dominical, Uvita, Savegre, and Osa. Moreover, Nauyaca Falls is also a favorite — a hidden gem for adventurous souls.
Inland, I frequently explore Bajos del Toro, the vibrant turquoise waters of Río Celeste, and the dramatic cascades of Llanos del Cortés near Liberia.
Finally, and up in Guanacaste, the North Pacific welcomes couples to the sunny beaches of Carrillo, Sámara, Nosara, Tamarindo, Flamingo, Conchal, and beyond.
As your photographer in Costa Rica, I’ll help you find the perfect setting — whether that’s a secret waterfall deep in the rainforest, a luxury resort with panoramic views, or a quiet cove where it’s just the two of you.
Let’s create something unforgettable, wherever your heart leads.
💍 Frequently Asked Questions
How do I book my wedding photographer in Costa Rica?
Booking is simple! Just fill out the contact form or send me a quick message via WhatsApp — I personally respond to every inquiry within 24 hours. Once we’ve discussed your vision, I’ll send over a proposal and booking details so we can make it official.
Do you help with planning and logistics?
Yes, absolutely. Having photographed weddings all across Costa Rica, I’m happy to guide you through the local logistics and recommend trusted wedding planners, florists, makeup artists, officiants, and venues.
Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement by a waterfall or a beach wedding in Guanacaste, I’ll connect you with reliable professionals to make everything seamless.
What’s your photography style?
My style is natural, emotional, and storytelling-driven. I focus on capturing real moments — the laughter, tears, and tiny details that make your day unforgettable — rather than stiff or overly posed shots.
Think of it as a mix between documentary and fine-art photography, designed to reflect your connection and the vibrant beauty of Costa Rica.
What areas of Costa Rica do you cover?
I photograph weddings throughout Costa Rica, from volcanic landscapes to tropical beaches.
Some of my most popular locations include:
- Arenal & La Fortuna (volcano views and rainforest resorts)
- Manuel Antonio (tropical beach sunsets)
- Guanacaste (Flamingo, Tamarindo, Conchal, Nosara)
- Puerto Viejo & Limón (Caribbean charm)
- Monteverde (lush cloud forest)
- Bajos del Toro (the most amazing waterfalls)
If you’re dreaming of saying “I do” in a hidden jungle lodge or barefoot on the beach, I’ll meet you there.
How far in advance should we book?
For weddings, I recommend booking 3–6 months in advance to secure your date, especially during the high season (December–April).
For elopements or small destination weddings, 2–3 weeks in advance usually works — but earlier is always better for planning and coordination.
Are travel costs included in your packages?
Yes — travel is included for most major destinations such as La Fortuna, Arenal, Manuel Antonio, and Guanacaste.
If your wedding is in a remote area (like the Osa Peninsula, Uvita, or the Caribbean coast), a small additional travel or accommodation fee may apply. I’ll always let you know upfront before confirming your booking — no surprises!
Do you photograph both large weddings and elopements?
Yes! Whether you’re planning a grand destination wedding with guests from around the world or a private elopement for two, I tailor my coverage to your story.
Each couple deserves an experience that feels personal, relaxed, and true to who they are — no matter the size of the celebration.
How long does it take to receive our wedding photos?
You’ll receive a few sneak peek highlights within 2–3 days, perfect for sharing with family and friends.
Your complete, edited wedding gallery is delivered within 4–6 weeks, beautifully curated and ready for download, printing, and sharing.
Do you offer video or drone services?
Yes! You can add drone photography for stunning aerial perspectives and video coverage upon request. Both services are available depending on your location, weather, and local drone regulations.
