Tamarindo Beach Marathon
We were very surprised that an event of this magnitude happens in a small town like Tamarindo. Every September thousands come to Tamarindo to run the marathon, half marathon, 30k, 10k & 5k.

Fairy portraits would be ideal in Costa Rica…
Back home in Canada we photograph may fairy sessions. Moms, grandmas and girls alike love these. Me thinks these would go over in a big way in Costa Rica....I'm working on it.
