Storyteller for the joyful + classic hearts
I'm Javier Mendez, a Costa Rica wedding photographer specialized in documenting weddings and elopements in Costa Rica. We have been capturing love stories in this tropical land for the past eight years. The enchanting beaches of Guanacaste, majestic waterfalls, the iconic Arenal Volcano, and many other stunning places are all part of our journey.
During our experience, we’ve documented more than 300 weddings and elopements around Costa Rica and we’re still fascinated how every couple has a unique and different story to be told. I can’t wait to be there to capture every laugh, tear, and cheers of champagne you’ll have on your wedding day. The wedding you create will no debatably be something you look back on with the most joy and love you can possibly imagine and I’m so excited to be there to capture it all with you.

"Javier is a true artist- he takes the task of wedding photographer very seriously but also managed to make me laugh and enjoy the whole process.
From our very first meeting to the last photo snapped at the wedding, Javier made me feel comfortable, beautiful, and at ease, knowing we had put the most important job at our wedding into expert hands."
