COSTA RICA WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGES
How much of your story
do you want to preserve?
Documentary and editorial wedding photography, analog film and motion; built around the way destination weddings actually unfold, not a meter of hours.
Most couples spend $3,500–$5,000.
The day moves fast.
What do you want to keep?
The ceremony matters. But so do the people who crossed countries to be there, the anticipation before it begins, the voices you love, the movement after dinner and the small things you will want to hold years from now.
That is why the collections do not grow by adding hours. They grow by adding chapters, mediums and ways back into the same memory.
Most photographers sell hours.
Six. Eight. Ten.
I don’t.
Your wedding doesn’t happen in fixed blocks, and your photography shouldn’t feel like a meter running in the background.
Every collection begins with the wedding itself. From there, you choose how much of the story matters, the welcome dinner, the people who travelled, the morning after, the sound of your vows, the grain of film, the objects you will hold years from now.
No clock watching.
I photograph the natural arc of the day rather than treating every extra moment as another hour on an invoice.
The story can begin earlier.
If the people, place and time together are part of why you chose a destination wedding, they can become part of the record too.
The memory gets deeper.
Photography can expand into 35mm, Super 8, sound, Polaroids, film and physical pieces; different ways back into the same weekend.
Start with the day.
Add what matters.
One day. Everything important happens on the wedding day itself.
Day + chapter. Add the welcome, rehearsal, sunset drinks or farewell.
Destination story. The gathering around the wedding matters as much as the ceremony.
Multi-medium memory. Photography, film, sound and physical pieces become one archive.
Three days. The complete destination experience, from arrival to farewell.

One More
Chapter.
Choose this when: the wedding is the center of the story, but there is one other moment you already know you would miss, a welcome dinner, rehearsal, sunset drinks, farewell brunch or something entirely your own.
What changes: instead of stretching the wedding day, we add one complete chapter around it.
The Wedding
Story.
Choose this when: people are travelling to Costa Rica and the experience of being together matters as much as the ceremony. The story includes the wedding plus one meaningful chapter, with more ways to remember it.
- Everything in The Wedding Day
- One additional chapter
- 550+ curated photographs
- Heirloom album
- 3–5 minute documentary film
- Super 8
- Polaroids from the day
BEST FOR · DESTINATION WEDDINGS WHERE THE PEOPLE AND THE TIME TOGETHER MATTER AS MUCH AS THE CEREMONY
Not just files.
Things you can return to.
As the collections deepen, the delivery changes too. A gallery becomes an album. A moving image becomes Super 8 and documentary film. Small physical pieces, prints, Polaroids, film and paper, give the story weight outside a screen.
The point is not to add products for the sake of products. It is to give the same weekend different ways to survive time.
A physical edit of the story, made to be opened rather than scrolled.
Photographs, film, sound and physical memory designed to belong together.
35mm, Polaroids and Super 8 bring texture and movement back into the record.
The Wedding
Archive.
Choose this when: you care not only about photographs, but about preserving texture, movement, voices and physical objects. Digital and analog photography, Polaroids, Super 8, sound, documentary film and keepsakes become one record of how the celebration felt.

Present first.
Photographed second.
Getting ready. I arrive quietly and document what is already happening. Nothing is staged or repeated.
The ceremony. I move with intention and stay out of the way.
Portraits. Usually 20–30 minutes. A pause in the day, not a photoshoot.
The reception. I follow the energy of the room. No pulling you away.
Throughout the day. You stay present. I take care of the rest.
Before you
decide.
Do you travel anywhere in Costa Rica?
Yes. Travel across all of Costa Rica is included in every package. No additional fees.
What if we feel awkward in front of the camera?
Almost every couple says this at first. You don’t need to know how to pose. I guide you naturally so you can be yourselves.
What happens if something unexpected happens?
I work with a small group of trusted photographers in Costa Rica. In the rare case of an emergency, you will be supported with a backup plan.
Do you help with timeline planning?
Yes. I help build the timeline around light, location and flow so the day feels natural and relaxed.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Payments can be split in a way that fits your planning process.
Can we see full wedding galleries?
Absolutely. Complete galleries show how a full day is documented from start to finish. Explore wedding stories →
You don’t need to know
which collection yet.
Tell me what you are planning, where it is happening, and what matters most to you. I personally read every inquiry and will help you choose the coverage that makes sense.
No sales presentation. No pressure. Just a conversation.
