I had a privilege to photograph Vicky’s and John’s wedding in 2011. So I was super excited when I was contacted by Vicky who wanted to me to photograph their family. Her mom and sisters live in Costa Rica and don’t visit nearly as often as she would like so it was a rare opportunity.

Vicky - For many years now I have been wanting to give gifts instead of receiving them for my birthday and I think it is great that in this case I can actually give them something that will last for many years to come.

My family is so very special to me and now that they are far away I miss them dearly but these photographs are such a beautiful reminder that no matter the distance or circumstances, love will shine through. I was certain and now it is tangible!
Again, thank you for your profesionalism, premium customer service, for your friendship and for dealing with all these women!
of course it was the guys that complaint the most…
We are all very grateful!
Big hugs from los ticos,
Vicky
