Couples Photography in Guanacaste, Costa Rica



ENGAGEMENTS, ANNIVERSARIES, PROPOSALS, HONEYMOON, AND ALL THE MOMENTS IN BETWEEN.

Every couple has a different story, and every session should reflect that. Whether you're planning a surprise proposal, celebrating your engagement, marking an anniversary, or simply wanting beautiful photographs from your Costa Rica vacation, we'll create an experience that feels relaxed, natural, and true to you.


Our sessions are less about posing and more about giving you space to enjoy the experience together. We'll guide you when you need it, while keeping things easy and allowing the moments in between to happen naturally. Costa Rica gives us an incredible setting for that, with quiet beaches, tropical landscapes, beautiful resorts, and some of the best evening light.


We photograph couples throughout Guanacaste and Peninsula Papagayo, including Four Seasons Costa Rica, Andaz Costa Rica, Nekajui, Playa Conchal, Flamingo, Tamarindo, Las Catalinas, Hacienda Pinilla, and surrounding areas. If you're visiting and aren't sure where to plan your session, we can help you choose a location based on where you're staying, the time of year, and the kind of photographs you have in mind.



At the end of the day, our goal is simple: to give you beautiful photographs that feel like the two of you and bring you right back to your time in Costa Rica.

FAQ

01.

What is the best time for couples photos in Costa Rica?

For couples photography in Costa Rica, we usually recommend starting before sunset and ending the session with the last light of the day. The exact timing depends on the time of year and your location in Guanacaste, since some beaches have direct sunset views while others lose the light earlier. Once we know where you're staying, we'll recommend the best time for your session.

02.

Where are the best places for couples and engagement photos in Guanacaste?

Guanacaste has beautiful locations for couples and engagement photography, from beaches and tropical landscapes to luxury resorts and private villas. We photograph throughout Peninsula Papagayo, Playa Conchal, Flamingo, Tamarindo, Las Catalinas, Hacienda Pinilla, Playa Hermosa, and surrounding areas. The best location depends on where you're staying, the light, and the feeling you want for your photographs.

03.

Can you photograph a surprise proposal in Costa Rica?

Absolutely. We photograph surprise proposals throughout Guanacaste and can help you think through the timing, location, light, and where your photographer should be positioned. We recommend planning the proposal before the sun actually sets so there's enough beautiful light afterward for engagement portraits and time to enjoy the moment together.

Can you photograph us at our Costa Rica resort or vacation rental?

What should we wear for couples or engagement photos at the beach?

Are couples sessions only for engagements and proposals?

Yes. We photograph couples staying at resorts, private villas, and vacation rentals throughout Guanacaste, including Four Seasons Costa Rica, Nekajui, Andaz Costa Rica Resort at Peninsula Papagayo, Reserva Conchal, Hacienda Pinilla, Las Catalinas, and other destinations along the coast. Tell us where you're staying and we'll help determine the best location and timing for your session.

Choose clothing that feels comfortable, moves naturally, and complements Costa Rica's tropical setting. Soft neutrals, earthy colors, pastels, and natural fabrics photograph beautifully at the beach. Instead of matching, choose colors and textures that work well together and still feel like you.

Not at all. We photograph couples visiting Costa Rica for engagements, proposals, honeymoons, anniversaries, babymoons, or simply because they want to remember a special trip together. You don't need a milestone or a special occasion, sometimes your time in Costa Rica is reason enough.
