CostA Rica

Pusch Family

The month of November by far is my favorite month in Costa Rica. The earth is super lush and green from six months of rainy season and the temperatures “cooler”, but with the beautiful weather of dry season. And having been away from Pura Vidadise for 8 months thanks to the ‘Rona, it felt good to arrive back during my favorite month. And to top that off, what better way to get back into the photography swing than with some of the most fun clients?! 

Two and a half years ago the Pusch family first visited with big brother Knox and his then little 3 month old sister Charlie, and ever since our photo session at the Four Seasons Papagayo during their family trip to Costa Rica, they couldn’t wait to come back! The Pusch’s decided to stay at The Andaz Papagayo this trip, and to change up the scenery, we decided on doing their family photos in Tamarindo. I of course was super excited to be able to show them the best locations on the beach in Tamarindo in my tropical home base, and most importantly, capture some beautiful family moments. 💕 

Gabi, Anthony, Knox, and Charlie…I can’t wait until next year and to continue our tradition of family photos in Costa Rica!

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.
