Our experience with Katherina was truly beautiful. From the very first moment, she made us feel very comfortable, and we thoroughly enjoyed our engagement photoshoot. She has a very special way of working, capturing natural moments and making everything feel authentic and spontaneous.

We loved the photos; she managed to capture not only how we look, but also the emotion and love of that very important moment for us. We are so grateful for her professionalism, patience, and the care she put into every detail. We definitely recommend her work and hope to work with her again to continue capturing memories of special moments.
Katherina was wonderful to work with. She was great at communicating and responding. She listened to what we wanted and came prepared and was able to direct us accordingly. She was very sweet and the pictures she took turned out amazing. We used her for our pregnancy announcements photos. Definitely would use her again in the future!

Katerina is probably one of the best family photographers I’ve ever encountered. Traveling from the US, I was looking for a family photographer to capture these special moments, and from the very beginning of our communication to the final result… she was just perfect!

Not only did she do extensive homework ahead of time—including preparing a mood board for the photography style, selecting locations, and providing Photoshop/art direction onsite—but she also went above and beyond my expectations to make sure my family had the best time during the photo shoot and that we got beautiful photos.

I’m so grateful she was able to turn my chaotic family into a presentable one in photographs 🤣🤣🤣.

Honestly, she is just the best!

It was a real pleasure working together. An artist who knows how to experiment with the elements of nature and the human body through images, while bringing an aesthetic sensibility.

Working with Kate was such an empowering and enjoyable experience. From the start, she made me feel completely at ease in front of the camera, which is not always easy for me. Her direction was clear and encouraging, and she really took the time to understand the look and feel I wanted. The photos turned out beautifully—natural, expressive, and truly me. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would absolutely book with her again🩷

Katherine was great to work with. Easy to communicate with and did an excellent job with our event. She requires little direction or guidance. She disappears into the crowd with her unflappable style and captures great moments. Would definitely work with her again.

About me

Hello! I’m Katherine

a family and portrait photographer based in Guanacaste, Costa Rica, with 8 years of experience behind the lens. I’m someone who likes to explore and try new things — and that curiosity shapes how I shoot, whether it’s love in a family photoshoot, a bonding moment in a pet photoshoot, or a quiet portrait session on the beaches of Nosara and Sámara. I’m always ready to bring new ideas and creativity to every session. What matters most to me is bringing my own personal style into every session — a style shaped by things far beyond photography itself. I see myself as an artist first, and a photographer second.

Let’s express ourselves together through the lens!
