As a destination family photographer in Costa Rica, I don’t often have the opportunity to work with families year after year, capturing their family photos.

Lifestyle Family Photos in Costa Rica || Kudish Family
Want to know the dilemma when you’re a photographer? You’re not in the photo because you’re the one behind the camera. Sure, you can use a tripod and set the camera to a timer, but if you really want all those moments captured, you entrust those moments to another photographer.

Destination Wedding in Manuel Antonio Costa Rica || Jessie + Tanner
First comes photography class, then comes a lifetime of photos together…
Jessie + Tanner’s love story began way back in high school when Jessie was a freshman & Tanner a junior. Because both of their last names started with “W”, they were seated next to each other in photography class. They both had significant others, but there was a spark — they’d innocently flirt, but once that semester ended, they went their separate ways.
