Suzanne B. Married on 03/04/2023More than we could have asked for....Mariana saved the day!
60 days prior to our wedding, the photographer we had originally hired decided she was going to charge us double what we we originally quoted. In a panic I started emailing other photographers. Mariana responded within a couple hours and still had our date available. It ended up being a total blessing in disguise. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. Everything went perfectly and Mariana captured every important moment including making sure we got every picture on my shot list. I truly believe everything happened for a reason and we were meant to have her all along. Mariana made us feel so comfortable, when we were up at the altar during the ceremony we didn't even know she was right next to us! Highly HIGHLY recommend Sharing Life Photography. I wish she lived local to us in the US so I could hire her for everything!!!-

Manee L. Getting married on 06/25/2023Cherished Memories!
We were vacationing in Costa Rica and decided to take engagement photos during our trip. Mariana was amazing to work with! She is professional, responsive, and really fun. She made us very comfortable from the get go. Unfortunately, I didn't see her message until later, but she even provided us with little snippets of our photo sessions on the same day! She is quick to provide the end product as well. I would recommend Mariana in to anyone. -

Mariana is talented, caring, and fun!
We found Mariana through a quick search and instantly liked with her photo galleries, prices, and ease of communication. After meeting her over Zoom we knew we had the one. We didn’t know exactly where in Costa Rica we were going to elope but Mariana helped us along our entire process. Even when I was incredibly indecisive, she was flexible and was able to meet us at any location or city we had been deciding between. She provided advice and guidance while never making me feel pressured to rush a decision from a distance. Her passion and love of the Guanacaste region helped us make a final decision to elope in Tamarindo. On the day of our elopement, Mariana was so fun and it felt like we had a true friend photographing our private elopement. After our ceremony, she loaded us up in her vehicle and drove us around town. In our elopement session we received beautiful getting ready photos, ceremony photos, venue photos, beach photos and around town photos. She captured the ideas we had perfectly and she added her own stops on top of the ones we knew we wanted. We loved the playfulness and energy she brought to our day. We received our photographs soon after our elopement as well. It was wonderful being able to share our elopement with family and friends so soon after our return from our trip. We 100% recommend Mariana if you want a fun and adventurous elopement/wedding. She will work with you every step of the way and the photos will be beautiful :) -

Amazinggg!
Mariana's energy is so refreshing! From our first conversation I knew she was the perfect fit for my wedding photographer and Videographer. She was very professional and welcomed any ideas that I had. She captured all the perfect moments, including the fun offguards! You can tell this is a true passion for her because she builds relationships with her clients naturally and has fun while shooting. My wedding was 3 months ago and we still keep in contact! I wish I could bring her to Texas to be my personal photographer for everything, but since I can't, it just gives me another reason to fly to Costa Rica 😉
I can't remember the videographer's name of the top of my head (sorry), but my video was better than I expected. Everyone was blown away! Unfortunately my mom passed 2 months after my wedding, but he captured our first dance and I watch it everyday. The memories this team captured was worth every penny. Thank you so much!!!-

Mariana did such an amazing job for our wedding photos. We couldn’t have picked a more perfect person to help capture our day. She made the whole experience fun and effortless, from the planning to the execution.
She was great at helping telling us what to do to get the most perfect photos. The quality and details of the photos far exceeded our expectations! She got all the special details and really helped us relive the day through the photos.
We couldn’t be happier! She is very talented. -

As i grew up i decided that the best i can do is to have an amazing lifestyle no matter what, do whatever make me happy and have time enough to be in contact with nature and have time for me, so i can do everything i love: go to the beach every day, enjoy sunsets, time to spend with the ones i love, time to explore hidden spots, cook, yoga, meditate and much more activities that make me feel rooted and with fulfilled spiritually. All this path inspire me to capture images in different locations and backgrounds and connect with my couples in a way that our communication goes beyond the words
Thanks for being here, hope we can meet each other!
