Guanacaste Aérea - Fotografia y Video in 50501, open JanuaryApril.

Guanacaste Aérea originated as a family-owned photography and videography operation in Costa Rica's northwestern province, evolving into a multifaceted estate venue that leverages its aerial and ground-level capabilities to document celebrations.

The property has been refined over years to accommodate intimate gatherings and larger destination events, maintaining its roots in visual storytelling while expanding into full wedding hosting.

Located in Tamarindo, this venue combines operational expertise with Costa Rica's natural Pacific coastal landscape.

I never received my photos and video! I am so disappointed. I have made SEVERAL attempts to contact Alberto and he completely ignores me, which is very unprofessional. I saw the same thing happened to another client who left a review. I hired Alberto to video a public speech I gave to a large group. I needed the video for an important business proposal and the photos for marketing. He assured me I would have everything back one week later. Now it has been one month and I have nothing to show for my work. I don't understand. He seemed professional on site and had good equipment, but that doesn't matter if I don't have the material. I feel very let down.
