Costa Rica’s tropical climate means the sun is strong and the light can be intense during midday. For the best results, we recommend scheduling outdoor sessions during the early morning or late afternoon, when lighting is softer, temperatures are more comfortable, and conditions are ideal for photography.

• Morning Sessions: 7:00 AM – 10:00 AM
• Afternoon Sessions: After 4:00 PM / 5:00 PM

These timeframes allow us to capture natural, flattering light while avoiding harsh shadows and excessive heat. During certain times of the year, afternoon sessions can also align with beautiful sunset conditions, adding an extra layer of color and atmosphere to your photos. (Note that during the rainy season we only recomend the morning session due to the chance of rain).

We understand that early mornings aren’t always ideal—especially on vacation—but the difference in quality is significant, and the results are always worth it.
