Engagement Photos in
playa guiones CostA Rica

Trixee + Chris

Five years ago Trixee and Chris met at work. Little did they know then that a work friendship would lead to an engagement and wedding in Trixee’s home island state of Hawaii next year. So with a planned trip to Costa Rica, what better place (besides Hawaii that is!) to do engagement photos for their Hawaii wedding announcement? I know, I know…you can’t go wrong with engagement photos in Playa Guiones Costa Rica orrrrrr in Hawaii!

I met up with Trixee + Chris at Mona Surf Resort in Nosara just as they were fresh off of their road trip up from Santa Teresa…a sketchy river crossing and flat tire included. (We call that the full Costa Rica road trip experience! 🙈) And even though the couple had an adventurous drive, Trixee + Chris were all smiles throughout their engagement photo session, laughing and just radiating with love for each other. Congrats you two!!!

Costa Rica is one of the Casey family’s favorite places to visit, especially to surf. I first had the pleasure of meeting and photographing the Casey’s in 2018. Two years later we planned on meeting up again on the beach in Tamarindo for surfer family photos, but that was March 2020 and COVID had other plans.
