Hall Family

As a destination family photographer in Costa Rica, I don’t often have the opportunity to work with families year after year, capturing their family photos. But when I do have the opportunity to work with a returning family client, it melts my heart that they ask me again to capture their precious family moments — and I also love seeing how much the kiddies have grown! Three and a half years ago I had the privilige to photograph six month old Señorita Bryson during her first trip to Costa Rica. She was an adorable munchkin then, and she still is! And her love for her parents — just so special to photograph!

Thank you Brett + Emily for trusting me to capture your Tamarindo beach family photos again — I can’t wait to see y’all again! And many thanks to the whole Hall-PaeltzArmstrong extended family — I’m so honored to be your Tamarindo family photographer every time y’all visit!

Destination Wedding in Manuel Antonio Costa Rica || Jessie + Tanner

First comes photography class, then comes a lifetime of photos together…

Jessie + Tanner’s love story began way back in high school when Jessie was a freshman & Tanner a junior. Because both of their last names started with “W”, they were seated next to each other in photography class. They both had significant others, but there was a spark — they’d innocently flirt, but once that semester ended, they went their separate ways.
