    Worth Every Penny — We Couldn’t Have Chosen a Better Photographer

    I can say without a doubt that having Kuba and his team as our photographer and videographer was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He is worth every single penny.

    As everyone says, your wedding day flies by so quickly that it almost feels like you miss parts of it. When we got our photos and videos back, it felt like we were reliving the day all over again. Seeing everything through Kuba’s lens gave us a fresh perspective and allowed us to experience moments we didn’t even realize were happening.

    We could not be happier with the photos Kuba delivered, and the video is something I can’t stop watching. My husband actually has to stop me from playing it every single day.

    Kuba and Sol made us feel completely natural, which meant so much since we had never been in front of a professional camera before and were a little nervous. They made the entire experience feel effortless and comfortable.

    If you’re hesitating about choosing a photographer, just choose Kuba, you will not regret it.

    Perfect Photos, 10/10!!!

    Kuba is an amazing photographer who truly goes above and beyond. From the start, communication with him was excellent. We didn’t really have a clear vision for our photos other than wanting them to be timeless and natural, but he exceeded all our expectations. He’s so kind and fun, and we felt completely at ease even though we can sometimes be camera shy. A lot of our family flew in from out of town, and he captured so many incredible family photos. He was in the middle of the dance floor all night, catching amazing moments. We also added the film photo package, and some of our favorite shots are from that. Every time we look through our photos, we relive the day all over again. We couldn’t recommend him more!

    Stunning photos!! One of the best decisions we made for our wedding day!!

    Kuba and Sol were AMAZING. They did such a wonderful job of capturing "us" and our vision for the wedding day. The photos were stunning not only of our couples session but also during the ceremony. In addition, we had struggled to find a photographer that captured the reception/dance party and they truly delivered! The joy and fun from the day came through in all of our photos and video and I am so grateful we chose them to record our day. My only regret was not hiring them for every event of our wedding! We cannot recommend them enough!!

    Kuba made wedding day easy

    We couldn't have been happier with Kuba as our wedding photographer! We clicked from our first conversation—he made us feel completely at ease and understood our vision for our small destination wedding. His warm personality, professionalism and ability to give us direction without being pushy made the entire experience feel effortless—one less thing to worry about on wedding day! Not only did he capture every special moment beautifully, but we had so much fun working with him. We are so happy with our photos and are beyond grateful we found Kuba—I recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer in Costa Rica!

    No Regrets ❤️

    I am beyond grateful for Kuba & his wife. They captured my special day PERFECTLY. Just by looking at their website/ Instagram I knew I wanted them to do my wedding. I gave Kuba examples of what kind of pictures I wanted and he delivered!! Plus more ! You could tell how much they love their job and made us feel so comfortable which is important for a couple who are weary of pictures. I am getting constant complaints on my photos and my wedding video. I will forever be grateful for them because they captured the magic of our special day and I will always be able to look back and feel it all over again.

    A Stellar Wedding Photography Experience with Kuba!

    We were fortunate to have Kuba as our wedding photographer for both the rehearsal and the ceremony, spanning two incredible days in the breathtaking landscapes of Costa Rica. Kuba's expertise in capturing the magic of natural lighting truly transformed our special moments into timeless memories.

    From the initial communication to the final delivery of the photographs, Kuba exceeded all our expectations. His professionalism, coupled with a friendly and approachable demeanor, made the entire experience not only seamless but also enjoyable. He seamlessly blended into the festivities, capturing candid moments effortlessly.

    Kuba's mastery of natural lighting brought an ethereal quality to our photos, highlighting the beauty of the Costa Rican surroundings. His keen eye for detail and creativity added a unique touch to every shot, creating a visual narrative that beautifully tells the story of our wedding.

    What sets Kuba apart is his commitment to going above and beyond. He took the time to understand our vision, ensuring that every shot reflected the essence of our love and the beauty of the destination. His dedication to perfection was evident throughout the entire process, from scouting locations to directing poses with finesse.

    In addition to his professional skills, Kuba's friendly and fun personality made the photography sessions enjoyable and stress-free. His ability to capture genuine moments of joy, laughter, and love is a testament to his passion for his craft.

    We wholeheartedly recommend Kuba to anyone seeking a wedding photographer who not only possesses technical excellence but also brings a positive and collaborative spirit to the table.

    Thank you, Kuba, for being an integral part of our wedding journey and for providing us with a collection of photographs that we will cherish for a lifetime!!

    Fantastic Photography and Videography Experience!

    All we can say is...wow! Kuba and his wife Sol perfectly captured our special day. They were organized and great to work with leading up to our wedding, creating a custom package to meet our requests. Day of, they were so knowledgable and comfortable to work with. Their goal was to make us forget they were there and just enjoy the day, and that is exactly what happened! But better yet, we ended up with the most majestic pictures and videos that captured our day perfectly and have allowed us to relive every moment over and over again. We couldn't recommend Kuba and Sol enough for anyone looking for photo/video services!

    Exceeded Expectations

    We had such an incredible experience with Kuba and his wife. They shot photography and videography for our elopement ceremony in Costa Rica and they captured our wedding perfectly. We wanted a sunrise ceremony at sunrise which started off with darker, moody lighting and captured insane views of the coast. Afterwards we did a second shooting location at our airbnb and as the sun came out which provided the perfect balance between the two different locations. So happy with how everything turned out. They definitely exceeded our expectations and we are so happy with our decision. If you’re looking for a photographer that has a unique and creative eye and can take your wedding photos and videos to the next level, we’d highly recommend using Kuba.

    Authentic, Wholesome, and Welcoming

    We were absolutely blown away by working with Kuba and his wife, Sol. I can't even begin to express my gratitude towards the work they created for us. These videos and pictures will be something we carry for the rest of our lives. They were so welcoming and helped us feel comfortable the entire evening. I love natural, authentic moments captured, and this is EXACTLY what we were looking for! We did a destination wedding, and choosing Kuba and Sol was the perfect choice for us!

    BEST photographer and videographer. 10/10 professionalism and captured our special day perfectly :)

    We ordered a photography and videography package, so this review is for both (Kuba and Sol). Kuba and Sol captured our special day perfectly. Kuba is very organized and made sure we were ready for what to expect - he sent us follow up emails with details leading up to the big day and made sure to answer any questions we had. The day of, he and Sol arrived early and started filming details while we got ready and were attentive to our needs and made sure to get the shots we wanted to capture. Kuba followed early AGAIN with our photos and videos - we got teasers much earlier than planned and the vibe of the gallery was perfect (I wish I had a better descriptor but really can't think of a word other than "perfect". It was rustic / boho / beachy, with our raw emotions captured, the exact vibe we wanted)... I couldn't stop watching our video, I must have watched it at least 10 times when we first got it. I'm so excited to look back at these memories for the rest of our lives and there's no other photographer and videographer I would have chosen to capture our elopement wedding other than Kuba and Sol. If you want your memories captured exactly how you want them for a lifetime, look no further than Kuba and Sol. THANK YOU KUBA AND SOL!!

    Exquisite Photos and Exceptional Service - A Dream Wedding Experience!

    We had the most incredible wedding experience thanks to Kuba! From the moment we met, it was clear that he truly cared about capturing our special day in the most magical way possible. We are beyond thrilled with the exceptional service and stunning photographs he provided.

    Kuba was an excellent listener and took the time to understand our vision and specific needs. He was patient and attentive, making us feel at ease throughout the entire process. We appreciated his professionalism and the genuine interest he showed in our wedding journey.

    On the rehearsal evening and wedding day, Kuba's presence was seamless and unobtrusive. He effortlessly captured every meaningful moment, ensuring that nothing was missed. He skillfully balanced being everywhere at once, yet remaining inconspicuous, resulting in a comfortable and stress-free experience for us and our guests.

    The quality of the photos is outstanding, and we couldn't be happier with how they turned out. Our friends and family have been showering us with compliments, praising the beauty and elegance captured in each image. The photos have become cherished keepsakes, allowing us to forever cherish and share the memories of our special day.

    We wholeheartedly recommend our photographer to any couple seeking someone who goes above and beyond to deliver extraordinary results. He is a true professional who is not only talented but also genuinely cares about creating a remarkable experience for his clients. We are eternally grateful for his artistry and dedication.

    Tamarindo Wedding

    Where to even start - Kuba and his wife were an amazing team and helped capture our day in the best way possible. The photos felt so genuine to how the day went and never made us feel like we had to leave the party to take photos. It was all so natural, capturing the moment vs staging the moment. Kuba sent us our photos only two weeks after the wedding, such an amazing turnaround time. The photos turned out absolutely incredible, they exceeded our expectations! Kuba was one of the first people we booked and I am so glad we hired him for such an important day.

    MUCH LOVE!

    The Most Beautiful Wedding Photos

    We decided to stop planning a massive wedding and just do a small intimate wedding in Costa Rica. This plan came together in under 6 months. We were married at the Dreams Las Mareas resort and the venue was stunning however I wasn't entirely won over by the resort photographer portfolio - these are our wedding photos after all! We did some research and stumbled upon Kuba. He was very quick to respond and we were able to secure him and pick from his multiple package options. Kuba and his wife were a pleasure to work with and we have approx. 600 stunning photos to look back on. They captured the venue, ceremony, guests, emotions and all details beautifully - we got so many compliments on the photos! We cannot stress enough how much you will love his work! Thank you Kuba! ~ The Dymonds~

    Absolutely amazing elopement

    Kuba was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! So reliable, flexible, and SO friendly. We aren't very comfortable in front of the camera, but Kuba made our elopement very relaxed and an amazing experience! Our pictures are exactly what we hoped they would be, and he got them back to us very quickly. Highly, highly recommend Kuba for your wedding/elopement.

    Absolutely AMAZING!!

    Kuba and Sol were absolutely amazing. Top to bottom, made the entire wedding day a breeze and really wanted to ensure we were not stressed about a thing. And the pictures... STUNNING!! For a girl who is not great in front of the camera, they captured our day PERFECTLY. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, Kuba is your guy. He is so cool, made everyone feel so comfortable, and we literally had half of the wedding (if not more) come up to us and tell us what a great photography team they were and what great energy Kuba and Sol had. I feel like I not only gained the wedding photos of my dreams but I gained a couple friends as well. I cannot thank Kuba and Sol enough for everything!!

    Extremely Talented and a Joy to Work With!

    I would 1000% recommend Kuba to anyone looking for a photographer.
    His work speaks for itself; the images he captures are stunning and we absolutely loved the photographs he took of our intimate elopement with our two boys. But aside from the photographs he gave us, it was also just so pleasant to have him there with us on our wedding day. He has this ineffable sweet and kind demeanor that instantly puts you at ease.
    For our special day we wanted our photographer to capture what occurred, not influence it. Kuba listened to what we wanted and gave us exactly that. He was unobtrusive and veered more towards a documentary/photojournalism style of photography. Now, a few weeks later, when I look at the pictures he took of our elopement, I'm able to remember the emotions and feelings I experienced in those moments and it feels almost as if I'm transported back. To have something like that is priceless.
    We feel so lucky that Kuba was available to photograph our elopement and would hire him again in a heartbeat.

    You want real captured moments? Kuba's the guy.

    We didn't want any "staged" photos. "Ok, now the mom, the sister and groom - everyone jump in the air". BLAH.... no thank you. We wanted a photographer to capture our event... not stage a bunch of boring photos no one ever wants to look at. Kuba captured everything amazingly. Can't recommend him enough. Photographs were amazing, he was sweet, unobtrusive and a great presence.

    Wonderful experience and beautiful photos

    Kuba captured our wedding beautifully. Him and his fiancé were punctual, professional, and had a calming demeanor to them.

    We met over video once before our wedding day and he reminded me to just enjoy the day and trust him to capture the moments. He absolutely followed through. He captured both the grand views of the venue as well as the details of our decor. He also caught candid moments between our family and friends.

    I'd highly recommend working with Kuba!

    Incredible! Look no further, choose Kuba Okon

    Kuba and his team are more than just wildly talented photographers. They’re thoughtful, kind, and extremely hard-working people. They made our wedding day more fun, they made us feel like celebrities, and the photos are better than we ever could have expected.

    We received our sneak peak just a few days after our wedding (and somehow Kuba had already made them look awesome). The exact timeline to receive our photos was laid out to us nicely, communication was clear, and we received our photos on exactly the expected date.

    The photos are BEAUTIFUL. We’re so happy to have had the privilege to work with Kuba and his team, and we hope others get to enjoy their company like we did.

    Best Decision Ever!

    We were so lucky that Kuba was available for our last-minute wedding celebration in Tamarindo. I cannot recommend his services enough!!! It's amazing how he knew exactly what we needed without us having to go into much detail. All of our guests were blown away by the results and multiple people made comments about how it seemed like he was in 8 places at once. He was truly able to capture every moment! And yet he was discrete like you didn't even know he was there. We received a sneak peak of the photos within 48 hours and didn't wait long at all for the rest of them! We are so happy with the decision to hire Kuba and if you are on the fence... just do it! You will be so pleased.

    Unbelievably sweet and professional photographers capturing every single moment!

    Kuba and his wife are the sweetest and extremely professional. Everyone at the wedding commented on how they must have captured every moment and they did. I just received my sneak peek and the photos are beautiful. I highly recommend using them to capture your event. They are worth every Penny and more!

    Costa Rica Sunrise Lunar Eclipse Elopement

    Kuba and his assistant girlfriend (who by the way, took an incredible short video for us), were incredibly professional, and just as lovely. Super easy to be around, and both down-to-earth- so the exact type of professionals that you don’t mind being part of such an intimate day. There was a full on storm the morning of our elopement, but this didn’t bother Kuba in the slightest and he was more than happy to adapt with us and move the breakfast celebration from the beach to our villa. The photos are insane and totally capture the mood. THANK YOU!!

    The BEST photographer!

    Kuba is an AMAZING photographer! We initially hired him to take our engagement photos and he did such a phenomenal job that it was a no brainer to hire him again to capture our wedding day. Kuba and his team were onsite for 12 hours capturing our wedding day including all the details from getting ready to the last dance. He even came to our rehearsal the day before to scout the day-of location and built a game plan for the wedding day. He will do whatever it takes to capture the best shots. He truly makes you feel comfortable and captures the most beautiful real-time, candid moments that are not staged. Kuba is friendly, communicative, professional, fun and the best photographer you could ever hire. I highly recommend Kuba!

    Extremely professional and "fun" !!!

    Kuba was very professional and flexible. It appeared that he was having more fun than us which made all of us very comfortable and as a result more natural and at ease. This comes through in the photos. Kuba provided us with a wide range of photos which exhibited every angle, perspective and most important, emotions!! He used the jungle, the ocean, the beach, the rocks, and crashing waves as amazing and very complimentary backdrops. Kuba captured our treasured memories!! Thank you Kuba.

    Thrilled with Kuba

    Kuba was able to capture our vision perfectly. He was professional but also welcoming and reassuring. We're not used to being the focus of attention, let alone the camera and he made doing both a little bit easier.

    We love our photos!

    With only six months to plan our wedding, when we first reached out to photographers in the area that we had heard of, many were already booked for our date. We almost entered panic mode until our planner suggested Kuba. After looking through his website portfolio and Instagram profiles, we breathed a sigh of relief. Both of us come from creative backgrounds and had incredibly high standards for the types of photos we wanted on our wedding day. If that sounds like you too, hire Kuba. He has a warm, easygoing personality that allows him to fit in seamlessly with your group and get those perfect candid and posed shots. More importantly for us, he has the talent of capturing stunning images that are beautiful not just because they’re in a pretty location and of a wedding. He finds harmony in the lighting, background, and figures in a way that not everyone else can. Everyone we’ve shown our pictures too has been impressed. Thank you, Kuba!

    Truly captured all the emotions of our special day!

    Kuba was the first person I chose for any part of our wedding. Having someone to capture such an intimate moment and to have such special memories that last forever, is such an important part of the wedding. I chose Kuba for his beautiful pieces of work that capture the raw emotion of those he's photographing and he absolutely did not disappoint! Kuba took some of the most beautiful photos of our wedding that we will truly treasure for the rest of our lives. From getting ready, to the ceremony, to the party after, Kuba captured some beautifully intimate moments showing so much raw emotion from the entire wedding party.
    Aside from his amazing photos, he was highly communicative, and incredibly easy going. He traveled all the way out to the Corn Islands for us. He sat down with us the day before and asked exactly what we wanted and provided just that.
    It's been crazy times, but I truly can't wait to get all these photos printed! I would highly recommend Kuba for any even that you are having. Thank you so much Kuba!!

    The best photographer in the market!

    I’ve been following Kuba’s job for many years. He has the ability to capture the most beautiful moments and your best angles without forcing the experience. The result is so natural and romantic.

    Best in Class!

    When planning our wedding, one of the most important things for my husband and I was photography. After looking at Kuba's website, we knew right away we wanted to book his services. His work and photos speak for themselves; his photos captured the raw emotions in the moment and are organic. And now that we have experienced his work first hand, there are not enough words to describe how happy and lucky we were to have him as our photographer. We recently received our wedding photo gallery and because of his artistic style, we can relive our wedding because we can see the emotions come to life in his photos. The photos took our breath away! He was also extremely professional, responsive, personable and easy to connect with. My husband and I trusted him completely throughout the wedding process and day. He is an amazing photographer and human being! Trust me, you will not go wrong with booking Kuba.

    Magnific Photographer

    My fiancé and I are from California and we are getting married down in Nicaragua next year. We have been so anxious about everything regarding our big day. With so much on our minds and so many things to keep straight in order to have a successful event it was really nice to have had such a refreshing and professional experience with our photographer Kuba. He really helped to put our minds at ease. To start off with his responsiveness is awesome. We communicated mostly over email and he would get back to us in a timely manner with whatever questions we had fully answered. We just got back from doing our engagement photos with him at Magnific Rock in Las Salinas and we had a blast. He drove a few hours to meet us on the day that worked best for us and took us for a walk along the coast catching us from every angle. His shots are professional with a good balance of shots ranging from artsy to practical. He is very talented at finding good lighting and We were ecstatic to see how beautiful our photos came out. We had never done a professional photoshoot before but Kuba makes it easy. He will give you enough cues to get the right shot without overstepping and stealing the moment. If you are looking for a very talented, reliable, professional, affordable and fun photographer to work with for your next big event Kuba’s your guy.

    Amazing Photos

    We were so happy with our choice for Kuba Okon to be our wedding photographer. He was professional, kind and quick to respond to questions. We were looking for a photographer that would get candid photos and really capture the joy of our wedding day and he perfectly captured the day and night. We were not looking for someone to tell us how to pose, or what to do, and we were comfortable being natural around him. We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos and would highly recommend Kuba Okon! If we were to get married again, and again, and again we would choose Kuba Okon as our wedding photographer over and over each time!

    So so pleased with Kuba and his assistant

    My husband and I planned a Costa Rica elopement from our home in Washington state. We were unable to have any type of practice shoot with our wedding photographer so it was a bit of a gamble. I looked into many many photographers online and many were out of our budget. Kuba offered exactly what we needed, a shorter session (3 hrs) to cover our elopement at a price that was very reasonable and he was willing to travel to La Fortuna to the resort we were staying at. He even came early on his own time to scout the place out and look for ideal locations for photos. He caught some of the wedding set up that I didn't see until I received the photos because I was getting ready. When he arrived, two cameras strapped across his chest, he was snapping photos while introducing himself. He didn't waste 1 second capturing every moment. He was so easy to get along with, very personable and friendly. He made me feel very comfortable. His assistant (his fiance) was also so wonderful. He was able to guide us along and keep us on track, making sure we had enough time for a first look photo before the ceremony etc. His assistant did a great job capturing our rings, vow books, shoes, props, accessories and my dress while I was getting ready which meant so much to me. He did a good job helping us get into nice poses and things that we really didn't have any experience with. We felt pretty awkward but he helped us relax and act natural. Kuba sent us over 400 gorgeous edited photos in the end and they are so much more than we could have dreamed. I love that we own them and can email them to friends, print them as we wish, etc. The editing was tastefully done. He kept us looking like ourselves without excessive "photoshopping." and the turn around was fast too! We got our sneak peak photos after about 1.5-2 weeks and the rest of them about a week later. We are so pleased and we would very highly recommend Kuba to others.

    Amazing storytelling - hire this man!

    Kuba was the best decision we made in regards to our wedding. His journalistic approach was authentic and natural – he found the little moments that made our day special and unique. He and his fiancé were friendly, attentive, focused, and incredibly flexible. They were nothing short of amazing and made documenting our day with such variety their highest priority. We added in a trash the dress session a few days after at Catarata Llanos de Cortes Waterfall. This turned out to be so dreamy and better than I imagined. 15/10 recommend Kuba and we cannot thank him and his fiancé enough for their hard work – I literally cried when I got all my pictures! WE LOVED YOU!

    Beautiful Wedding Photography

    Kuba has an amazing eye, he captured not only the most important parts of our wedding, but also many unique moments, facial expressions and natural movements of all our guests and ours. He is a very responsible, sweet person who is dedicated to his work and attentive to his client’s preferences. I can not thank him enough for visually bringing our special day back every time I look at the album he made.

    Very talented photographer

    We hired Kuba for our wedding in Nicaragua and we couldn't be happier with our decision. Our wedding photos are even more beautiful than what we had hoped for. Kuba is not only very talented, he is also kind and friendly. He took photos for over 8 hours and really went above and beyond to capture every moment of the wedding. I highly recommend Kuba, he is a true artist. I can't imagine a more talented photographer in Central America.

    Above and Beyond!

    I actually found Kuba on instagram and couldn’t be happier with his work! He captured so much more than just the usual wedding shots and on top of that, he is an excellent communicator and arrived at our Nicaraguan destination a day before, which I was very pleased and impressed with. He was professional, kind and most importantly has really a great eye for photography! He and his assistant took thousands of pictures and knew exactly what was going to look great! I am absolutely in love with the edited and finished photos, Kuba has a soft and elegant style. I will cherished these photo forever!

    Blessed to have found Kuba-Photos will be cherished for a lifetime

    I can not rave about Kuba's photography enough! Kuba captured not only the beauty of our surroundings at our beach wedding ceremony and celebration in Nicaragua but he also captured the genuine excitement, joy, and love of so many precious and intimate moments (half the time,without us really even knowing he was there!) My husband and I are terribly uncomfortable with cameras and yet Kuba was incredibly easy to work with from start to finish. I google searched wedding images per his request and sent him many different shots hoping for only a few. He managed to capture all of them in addition to many with his own unique touch! He also captured at least one photo of each of our guests in one of those preciously fleeting and Kodiak moments (our wedding was very intimate with only 24 guests). There was truly nothing standard or stagnant about any of the photos he took. He sent me more pictures than I could ever print (691 IMAGES!) 90% of which are worthy of blowing up and hanging in a frame- and he sent them to me in a format so that I could save them and print them in whatever way I want, as many times as I want! In a nutshell, Kuba has an incredible gift and his photos of our wedding day will be cherished for a lifetime.

    A True Artist and Professional

    We held a wedding with 35 guests on a cliff overlooking the Pacific in Nicaragua. At the start of the wedding, the area was drenched in sunlight. The festivities then pushed on through the golden hour, to twilight, and beyond. I can only imagine how difficult it was to manage the changing light while honoring the vast and intricate landscape--all while maintaining focus on the couple (us!) and invited guests. Kuba and his partner handled all of this with grace and professionalism. The photography that they delivered was outstanding, and they managed to capture the surreal beauty of the landscape as well as our most cherished sentimental moments. We could not be more pleased with the outcome.

    Beyond the sheer talent and artistry of the work, Kuba was the utmost professional. He and his partner blended in seamlessly with our intimate festivities. They were pleasant yet upbeat, present yet non-intrusive, and professional yet lighthearted. They delivered above and beyond on their promises, with timely delivery of stunning photographs, appropriate contracts, and smooth payments/receipts.

    If you are getting married amidst a stunning backdrop and you want a professional & friendly photographer who can simultaneously capture the beauty/enormity of the landscape and the intimacy of your union, this is your team.

    Extremely talented. Highly recommended.

    Not only is Kuba a very talented photographer, but he is an extremely pleasant individual. The photographs he took of our wedding capture the true essence, beauty, and happiness of that day. We effortlessly booked, paid, and coordinated his services from the USA. He is meticulous about logistics. He shows up early to the event in order for you to feel comfortable with him and the camera. He makes sure to know from you who and what is most important to photograph. For our wedding at the beach, he captured every single detail starting from makeup and coiffeur sessions of the bride, to table and food arrangements, to ruckus dancing. His photographs speak for themselves, they are stunning. --- He is essential a war zone photographer at a wedding; never seen just acrobatics! Regarding that ruckus dancing - his contract was already done when the REAL dancing started late into the night, and I actually witnessed him quickly put his fork down, dash for his camera and start shooting. He captured some of the most candid, yet magnificent photographs of the entire wedding. This is the kind of dedication and love of photography that we were hoping for and got. Unfortunately, he doesn't live near us, otherwise, we would not hesitate to hire him again for other events.

    Fabulous photographer

    My husband and I can't say enough about Kuba's work. When we decided to elope we knew we wanted pictures to share with friends and family. Kuba seemed to effortlessly capture the essence of our day, working behind the scenes without missing a thing. He was a pleasure to work with his work even inspired us to put together a beautiful album for our post elopement party. He exceeded our expectations. Would definitely recommend!

    No need to search. Just book!

    We had the pleasure of having Kuba and Sol document our intimate ceremony in Tamarindo. They were amazing to work with. Professional and prompt with replies while speaking to him via email from the US. The photos and video we received of our wedding day were beautiful and we will definitely treasure them for the years to come. I had gone back and forth on whether not to do video and I’m so glad I did because the video Sol made is absolutely magical and captured our personalities so well. Thank you again Kuba and Sol!
