When Elleen & Bill booked me to photograph their wedding at the Hotel Diria in Tamarindo, Costa Rica, I did a little dance. It wasn't just because Costa Rica is my favorite place in the world (I was married there 11 years ago and have visited the country many times)... but because Elleen & Bill seemed so incredibly nice. True to my impression, these two were very warm and welcoming - with a great sense of style (check out the shoes!) After a week of thunderstorms in Tamarindo, they had the best weather on the day of their beach ceremony, with lots of dramatic clouds but no rain or lightning in site! The Hotel Diria was an excellent choice of venue because it had a perfect amount of elegance along with a Costa Rica casual flare. The next morning we got up bright and early to do a trash the dress on the beach. What a blast! Working with Elleen & Bill was so easy and reminded me of why I love photography so much. Elleen & Bill - congratulations!!
Aren't these the coolest wedding shoes?
Another reason these guys are so great: The entire wedding party jumped in the pool at the end of the night (a first for me!)
And finally... one last dip to clean up!
