Highly Professional and Easy to Work With
My husband and I hired Margaret to take 10 year anniversary pictures on the beach outside of the Westin. Margaret was very responsive to any question we had, she listened to our vision and she over delivered. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer and would hire her again!

Working with Margaret was truly an unforgettable experience. She is an incredible photographer with a unique and powerful eye—like no one else.Everything flowed so naturally during our session. It honestly turned out to be the most beautiful and productive photoshoot I’ve ever had, and that’s saying a lot considering I’ve worked as a model before.What stood out the most was how effortlessly she guided me through the poses, making me feel comfortable and confident at every moment. Thank you so much! Hope to meet you again soon.
Working together was truly a great experience. Even though it was a group workshop, I felt very comfortable with each of you. During the session, I felt relaxed and knew I was in good hands. I also really appreciated being able to express my own ideas and share what I wanted from the session. And honestly, the best proof of how happy I am is how much I love the photos — they’re absolutely beautiful! Thank you again.

Margaret took our family pictures last year and she is amazing photographer. What sets her apart from other photographers is her use of natural light in the pictures. Every picture she took with our family was done by utilising the lights reflections in the water. Costa Rica is such a beautiful place and it was important to capture this in our family pictures in a beautiful place.
Margaret was wonderful! I cannot recommend her enough. We had a family of 13 people including a baby and 4 little kids (one of whom decided during the photo shoot that she was "scared of sand") and she somehow managed to get FANTASTIC pictures of our whole crew!! If you're in Costa Rica and want pictures to remember your vacation, look no further. She's the best!
We could not be happier with our pictures and our expirience with Margaret! Our pictures are absolutely stunning. We were blown away! Margaret has an amazing eye and was able to capture our family beautifully. She took time to travel to us, scope out great spots and was amazing with our children. She even brought them chocolates and was teaching them about wildlife and the area. I cannot recommend her enough!
We had family coming to stay with us from all over the U.S. and thought it would be special to have photos taken while everyone was together. Margaret was recommended by some neighbors and I am so glad we used her. She was incredibly patient with all of the kiddos we have in our family, beautifully capturing all of their individual personalities. She also spent time shooting each individual family and the whole family together. These photos will forever be a way to remember this special time we had together.

Being photographed by Margaret was a beautiful experience from start to finish. She has a natural gift for capturing authentic moments and making you feel completely at ease.Her eye for detail and ability to bring out the best in people truly set her apart. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for meaningful, timeless photography.
We visited Costa Rica for our daughter’s graduation and booked a session with Margaret after several recommendations. She joined us on a catamaran tour and captured beautiful family portraits, snorkeling moments, and even underwater photos.Beyond her talent, her sweet and caring nature truly stood out — she even helped our son when he felt dizzy on the boat. We’re so grateful and can’t wait to book another session when we return.
Margaret was absolutely amazing! She did our maternity photoshoot at the beach during sunset and the results were beyond our expectations. She is truly talented and couldn’t be happier. I absolutely recommend !
Margaret is amazing! My family and I visited Costa Rica a few weeks ago. We decided to do family photos on the beach with Margaret. Let me tell you the pictures turned out so wonderful, better than I ever expected. She was able to take so many photos, so we had a lot to choose from. Also, she edited and sent them to us fast, which was awesome because I was so excited to see. Margaret is so kind, easy going, and flexible.You can tell she loves what she does, wants to make her clients happy, and is very good at what she does. I would highly highly recommend her if you are in the area and want photos taken!!
We highly recommend Margaret for capturing stunning moments of our family against the breathtaking backdrop of a Costa Rican sunset. Her keen eye for composition and mastery of natural light resulted in truly mesmerizing photographs that beautifully encapsulated the essence of our family’s joy and togetherness.
