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!
