The Pacific Family Behind it All
THE CREW
Pacific Photography Costa Rica
Creative. Experienced. Driven by Results.
At Pacific Photography CR, we are more than just photographers—we are a dedicated team of visual storytellers committed to capturing moments with precision, creativity, and purpose. Every member of our crew shares the same vision: to deliver powerful imagery that feels natural, timeless, and impactful.
Based in Jaco, Costa Rica, we operate in one of the country’s most dynamic and accessible regions, allowing us to seamlessly travel across the Central Pacific and beyond. Whether it’s a beachfront wedding, a luxury property, or a brand campaign, our team is built to adapt, create, and execute at a high level—anywhere in Costa Rica.
Our Story
Pacific Photography CR was built on a shared passion for the art behind the lens and a commitment to continuous growth.
Founded by Johnathan and Rafael, our team blends international perspective with deep local knowledge. Johnathan, originally from Canada, brings a strong understanding of international clients and expectations, while Rafael, Costa Rican-born and bilingual, provides invaluable cultural insight and local expertise. Together, this combination allows us to deliver a seamless experience for both local and destination clients.
What started as a passion has evolved into a full-service visual production team. Over the years, we’ve expanded beyond photography into videography, drone work, and content creation—continually investing in new techniques, equipment, and creative direction to stay ahead in a competitive industry.
Our Approach
We believe great photography is more than just capturing an image—it’s about understanding the moment, the client, and the purpose behind every shot.
Our approach is hands-on, detail-oriented, and collaborative. We take the time to understand your vision, guide you through the process, and ensure every detail is executed with precision. The result is a collection of images and content that not only look exceptional but truly represent your story, brand, or experience.
Why Jaco, Costa Rica
Jaco is more than our base—it’s our creative playground. Located in the heart of Costa Rica’s Central Pacific, Jaco offers a unique blend of tropical rainforest, oceanfront landscapes, and vibrant energy. Its strategic location allows us quick access to some of the country’s most sought-after destinations, making it the ideal hub for destination weddings, tourism content, and commercial projects.
Looking Ahead
Our portfolio is constantly evolving because we never stop pushing forward. We continue to refine our craft, expand our services, and raise the standard of what we deliver to our clients.
At Pacific Photography CR, we’re not just capturing moments—we’re building lasting visual experiences.
