Nosara Wedding Photographer — Artful, Editorial & Unforgettable Fun
I’m Inés, a fine art wedding photographer based in Nosara, Costa Rica, creating editorial, emotional, and art-driven imagery for couples from all over the world. I photograph weddings the way they feel: soft, powerful, unique to your love story and intentional, while keeping the entire experience relaxed, intimate, and genuinely fun. I photograph a limited number of weddings each year, allowing me to stay deeply involved and fully present throughout your entire experience.
Your shoot with me will never feel stiff or staged; we move, we play, we create, and we turn real moments into art.
My Style & Wedding Photography Philosophy
I’m drawn to soft intimacy, cinematic compositions, real moments and the details that say everything without words.
I guide you with flow, offering clear, effortless posing direction while creating space for natural moments, so your images reflect who you truly are.
You’ll never have to wonder what to do in front of the camera
Published in Elle USA, Vogue Photo and Kaltblut Magazine, I bring an editorial sensibility to every wedding while adapting to your personal style.
I keep my creative eye open to ensure your story feels authentic and elevated, with a high-end finish.
Alongside this, I’m grounded in documentary photography, capturing the unplanned laughter, happy tears, and subtle gestures that become your most meaningful memories. My editing is warm, organic, and cinematic, creating imagery that feels modern, intimate, and timeless.
The Experience — How I Photograph Your Wedding
My process is designed to feel effortless, grounded, and deeply personal.
We begin with a video call, getting to know your story and the kind of celebration you imagine.
Whether your wedding is in Nosara, Guanacaste, Costa Rica or anywhere across the world, I take time to understand your vision so your gallery feels truly yours. From there, I support you with timelines, location scouting, lighting guidance, and every detail that elevates our imagery.
With years of shooting weddings in Costa Rica, I know how to work with its tropical light, shifting weather, tides, and natural rhythm.
On the wedding day, I blend editorial direction with intuitive documentary photography. I guide you with clear, confident posing when needed, and quietly step back when real moments unfold. After your wedding, you’ll receive sneak peeks in three days and your full, edited gallery in four weeks.
Destination Wedding Photography
For couples planning exclusive multi-day destination weddings in Costa Rica, Europe, or the United States, I offer wedding photography coverage that documents the full story of your celebration: from welcome dinners to day-after sessions.
As a destination wedding photographer based in Nosara, Costa Rica, I am photographing weddings throughout Playa Guiones, Santa Teresa, Tamarindo, Uvita, La Fortuna, and across the Guanacaste region, while also traveling regularly for destination weddings across Europe and the USA.
With years of international experience, particularly in Europe and the United States, I understand how to adapt to different landscapes, light conditions, and cultural rhythms, allowing each wedding gallery to feel authentic and deeply personal.
Originally from Croatia, I work comfortably across borders and cultures and speak five languages, creating a seamless, intuitive experience for couples and planners wherever your celebration takes place.
I accept a limited number of weddings per year to ensure a fully present and personal experience.

Cinematic Wedding Video
Alongside photography, I work with a hand-selected team of professional wedding videographers, editors, and licensed drone pilots to create cinematic wedding films that feel immersive, emotional, and timeless.
Before your wedding, we develop a cinematic concept together, defining the mood, rhythm, and visual language of your highlight wedding video. On the day itself, my team captures the experience focusing on real moments, movement, atmosphere, and connection.
Your cinematic wedding highlight video is carefully edited with intentional pacing, professional color grading, sound design, and music selection of your choice, transforming moments into a refined visual story that reflects the depth and uniqueness of your love.
This approach is ideal for luxury destination weddings in Costa Rica and worldwide, where the backdrop of the landscape, emotion, and storytelling come together to create a film that feels personal and artful. See more of my videography work here:

I accept a limited number of weddings per year to ensure a fully present and personal experience. Most couples book 12–24 months in advance, especially for destination weddings in Costa Rica, Europe, and the United States. I typically photograph weddings in Costa Rica from November through June, and June through October in Europe and the USA.
That said, availability can vary from year to year, and I always recommend reaching out regardless of your wedding date. The sooner you inquire, the more flexibility there is, particularly for multi-day destination weddings and peak-season dates.
-
Yes. While I’m based in Nosara, Costa Rica, I regularly photograph destination weddings across Europe and the United States.
I hold a European passport and travel internationally with ease, allowing for a seamless experience for couples and planners, from logistics and timelines to working fluidly across cultures and locations.
-
The number of images varies depending on the length and nature of your celebration. Full-day weddings typically receive 400–600 carefully edited, high-resolution photographs, while shorter coverage and multi-day weddings are delivered accordingly. Every image is individually curated and edited to reflect the story, atmosphere, and emotion of your day.
You’ll receive a preview of 10 sneak-peek images within 48 hours of your celebration, with your full wedding gallery delivered within four weeks.
-
Yes. While my primary focus is wedding photography, I also offer high-end wedding videography through a trusted team of professional videographers I collaborate with regularly. I personally direct the visual narrative together with the couple, ensuring the photography and film feel cohesive, intentional, and emotionally aligned.
From cinematic storytelling and documentary moments to aerial drone footage, every video is crafted with the same artistic eye and attention to detail as my photography. I oversee the creative direction so your wedding film feels elevated and timeless.
-
Weather is part of the beauty of destination weddings, especially in tropical locations like Costa Rica. With years of experience photographing weddings in Nosara, Guanacaste, and coastal environments, I know how to adapt quickly to changing light, rain, and conditions. I always come prepared with backup plans, alternative locations, and creative solutions so your wedding photos remain emotional, cinematic, and elevated, no matter the weather.
-
Absolutely! I support my couples with timeline guidance, location scouting, and creative planning to ensure the day flows naturally and the photography feels effortless for both parties. We begin with a video call where we discuss your vision, creative ideas, and priorities, and I’m happy to prepare mood boards and visual references to align on the aesthetic and atmosphere of your celebration.
From the first conversation to the final gallery, I truly have your back. My role is to guide you, anticipate needs, and create space for you to stay present and relaxed, knowing that the moments that matter most are being thoughtfully and beautifully documented.
-
Most of my couples tell me this, and it’s completely normal! My approach is relaxed, intuitive, and guided. I offer clear, effortless posing direction while creating space for natural movement and real connection. You’ll never be asked to perform or hold stiff poses. Instead, I help you feel comfortable, present, and confident, resulting in wedding photos that emotionally honest and beautiful.
-
Once you’ve chosen your wedding photography package and reached out with any questions, I’ll walk you through the next steps personally. To officially reserve your wedding date and block my calendar, a 50% retainer is required at the time of booking. This retainer is refundable up to two months before the wedding date.
The remaining balance is due one month prior to your wedding. Upon booking, you’ll receive a wedding contract outlining all details clearly, ensuring transparency and peace of mind for both sides. Once the contract is signed and the retainer is received, your date is fully secured.
My goal is to make the process simple, professional, and stress-free, so you can focus on planning your celebration, knowing everything is taken care of.
-
Yes! I proudly photograph LGBTQ+ weddings and love stories and believe deeply that love is love. I approach every wedding with openness, respect, and care, creating a safe and inclusive experience where couples can fully be themselves.
-
Yes. I work closely with wedding planners and coordinators in Costa Rica, Europe, and the United States. I value strong collaboration and clear communication, and I’m experienced in working within well-structured timelines while remaining flexible when moments unfold naturally. Whether you’re planning a luxury destination wedding in Nosara or a celebration in Europe, I integrate into your team to ensure the photography experience feels effortless and aligned with the overall vision.
-
For destination weddings, I work with a trusted, consistent creative team, including assistants and a dedicated lead videographer who also operates drone coverage, traveling with me when video is part of the booking. This ensures a cohesive visual language, seamless communication, and a unified cinematic approach across photography and film.
When needed, I also collaborate with carefully vetted local professionals. This balance allows me to maintain high production standards, reliability, and efficiency while delivering elevated, intentional results for destination weddings in Costa Rica, Europe, and the United States.
-
Yes. Alongside a full color gallery, I deliver a curated selection of black and white wedding photographs. These images highlight emotion, texture, and intimacy, adding a timeless, editorial layer to your wedding story. Each black and white image is intentionally selected and edited to complement the overall narrative of your day. If you prefer color-only images, you’re welcome to let me know in advance, and I’ll tailor the final gallery to your preference.
-
Yes. Engagement sessions, pre-wedding shoots, and bachelorette party coverage are available and highly recommended, especially for destination couples. These sessions allow you to feel comfortable in front of the camera while creating editorial-style imagery in meaningful locations. Many couples choose to schedule these shoots in Costa Rica, Europe, or during a travel experience, resulting in intentional and unique images that beautifully complement their wedding gallery.
-
Absolutely. I encourage couples to share inspiration, references, and mood boards so we can align creatively. We’ll discuss these details during our video calls and planning process. While I work intuitively and document real moments as they unfold, understanding your aesthetic preferences helps me create a wedding gallery that feels personal, intentional, and true to your vision.
-
Low light is where cinematic storytelling truly shines. I’m highly experienced in photographing sunset ceremonies, candlelit receptions, and night celebrations, using both natural and creative lighting techniques. Whether your wedding takes place on a beach in Costa Rica or in a historic European venue, I ensure your images remain atmospheric, flattering, and editorial without disrupting the flow of the celebration.
