Madeleine + Stephen

Eight months ago, Stephen was completely OK. Then he went out on his first date with Madeleine and his world forever changed. As for Madeleine, she immediately felt safe with Stephen. When you know, you know. Four months later, on his parents anniversary Stephen asked Madeleine to spend forever with him. And with Stephen being half Costa Rican, what better place to exchange their vows than with an intimate wedding in Tamarindo Costa Rica at Alang Alang? With their parents and siblings, Madeleine and Stephen radiated such happiness and love on their wedding day. Congrats you two!

Family Vacation Beach Photos in 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?!
