Maddie + Jake

Maddie first met Jake at work. At first they were just friends working at a super fun beverage distributor in Seattle, and then their friendship evolved into a relationship. And after Jake proposed to Maddie + their families decided to do a joint family vacation in Costa Rica to celebrate thier parents’ birthdays, Maddie of course could not pass up doing engagement photos in Tamarindo Beach! Despite rainy season starting a little earlier this year in early April, the weather stayed beautiful for one gorgeous afternoon of engagement photos on the beach!

Congrats you two — have a beautiful wedding on New Year’s Eve!

Tamarindo has a special way of bringing people together. Like Laura + Richie, who met each other in this tropical beach town a couple of years ago.

My first week long trip to Costa Rica, I definitely felt like I didn’t have enough time, so my second trip I booked for 10 days. And then my third trip…well I ended up packing up my NYC apartment and hopped a flight to Costa Rica for however long I wanted to!!!
