Family photos in Costa Rica

Gather together for family vacations, and create some fun, meaningful memories with family photos in Costa Rica. A Costa Rica family photo session is a great opportunity to interact and enjoy while it’s fun to spend quality family time together. It’s also a significant aspect of your physical health and mental well-being.

From my family I receive love and support in difficult times, from my family I learned the values ​​that guide my life. As a family, we live beautiful moments together that remain in the memory and in the heart. In fact, becoming a father has been the most wonderful experience of my life.

But all those moments pass on; time does not stop and the fast pace of modern-day family life can make it easy to forget that simply just spending time with our children is really important. We create excuses, and we postpone the opportunity to do what is truly important, which is to share more and better moments with our family. Our time is one of the greatest things we can give them. Making time to connect with family requires a bit of planning—sometimes a bit of money—but the investment is well worth it for the outcomes of healthy and strong family bonds.

Family Photo session in Costa Rica

A family photo session in Costa Rica is a wonderful excuse to be able to capture those beautiful family moments, a hug, an authentic laugh, eyes contact, everyday games, or even a grimace. Therefore, is my goal to capture those feelings; those moments that pass. But this time they will remain forever in beautiful images; with the most spectacular natural settings in Costa Rica. Together, we can have a family adventure exploring the rainforest. Likewise, looking for a waterfall; with a volcano in the background; or playing at the beach while we wait for a beautiful sunset.

In Costa Rica, you will have the opportunity to get away from a cold and small photographic studio in a shopping center. At those studios, children and adults do not feel comfortable, nor do they allow photos that reflect how much we love our family, and how much they love us.

Fabian is wonderful! He took really amazing photos of our engagement and was super nice and friendly along the way. He was also really flexible and was willing to work with me on day-of timing in case of rain. Also very communicative and addresses questions quickly! Was truly a pleasure working with Fabian

Fabían did a phenomenal job of capturing our large family while on a vacation to Costa Rica. He planned the perfect location and captured our family perfectly. Would highly recommend him! He communicated well before, during and after.

I say enough great things about Fabián whom I hired for my surprise proposal. From the very beginning, he was absolutely amazing—helping me plan every detail and even pretending to be a tourist so my fiancée (now fiancée 😄) wouldn’t suspect a thing. He captured the entire moment perfectly, from the surprise on her face to the raw emotion of the “yes.” After the proposal, he guided us through poses and spots that made for stunning, natural-looking shots. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed, and the photos turned out better than we ever imagined. If you’re looking for someone who goes above and beyond to not just take pictures—but to help create a moment you’ll never forget—this is your guy. I highly, highly recommend him!

Fabian took amazing engagement photos for us at La Fortuna Waterfall! He was very kind and affordable and captured the exact vibe we wanted. He was also incredibly understanding and flexible after we rescheduled our trip 3 times due to illness/family reasons. I highly recommend!!

We had the absolute best experience working with Fabian for our wedding in Costa Rica near Arenal Volcano. And not only did he capture stunning photos of our ceremony and our guests, but he also planned and led us on an epic “wreck the dress” adventure hike to several waterfalls a couple days later — the photos are just incredible. Words can't do them justice. Fabian is a phenomenal communicator, extremely professional, and easy going. He speaks excellent English too, which made everything feel easy and seamless since we only know a little Spanish. Beyond that, he’s just a genuinely fun, kind, and hilarious person to be around. He made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera, and the entire experience felt more like hanging out with a friend than a photoshoot. We honestly can’t wait to go back to Costa Rica just to have Fabian take our family portraits someday. Our family has been talking about it already and they haven't even seen how awesome the photos are yet! Working with him was an unforgettable highlight of our wedding week. If you’re considering booking him — do it. You won’t regret it! Thank you again for everything, Fabian!! -Ryan & Gina

We were vacationing in Costa Rica and fell in love with this beautiful place. We decided we wanted to get married while we were there. I found a wedding officiant and he gave me Fabián’s name as a wedding photographer. From my first contact with Fabián, he was amazing. Sending me pictures of different locations to help me select the right place, he helped me find a florist and someone to do my hair and makeup. On our wedding day, Fabián went above and beyond. He took the most breath taking pictures and even continued to do our pictures when it started to rain. We can not thank him enough. Our pictures are amazing!
