Tamarindo wedding at casa compass

Tiffany + Mike

Tiffany and Mike had known each other since high school, but it wasn’t until they both attended college in Boston that they started to hang out together. Or as Tiffany likes to say, “Mike was one of the shortest guys in high school, so when I saw him in college, I was like, ‘You grew a couple of inches!’” That growth spurt sure helped Mike, because one thing led to another and Tiffany+ Mike started dating. Funny how the Universe has her divine timing, right?!

So when the time came for The couple to decide on where they wanted to get married, given Tiffany + Mike’s love for travel, the Universe guided them to a destination wedding in Tamarindo Costa Rica AND to a photographer that shares the same last name as Mike — Brown! With their closest family and friends, Tiffany and Mike celebrated their marriage with one gorgeous, intimate wedding in Tamarindo.

Overlooking the Pacific Ocean at Casa Compass, the couple exchanged vows and then headed down to the beach for dreamy golden hour portraits. The love between Tiffany + Mike simply radiates — so natural, easily making each other laugh + smile ear to ear. Congrats you two!

Surfer Family Photos in Tamarindo || Casey Family

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.
