10/10 book Adri and Lucas!
I cannot say enough positive things about our experience. After jumping on a quick zoom meeting with Lucas I immediately knew we made the right choice. Communication was easy, filling out the pre-shoot questionnaire made me confident we would get the photos and style we wanted. My husband hates photos and Lucas made us feel so comfortable. He even gave us a ride back to our hotel so we didn’t need to Uber (thanks!) The final album was even larger than expected and I loved Every. Single. Photo. You won’t regret using Adri and Lucas!! -

Adri and Lucas were amazing to work with from the beginning. They want to know what pictures are most important to the couples! I love the style if their photo's so picking them was not a difficult decision. Adri and her assistant were so wonderful the day of the wedding. They capture pictures very quickly so you don't feel like you spend the whole day taking photo's. They were also so fun to have at the reception while they were getting candids of guests dancing!
We received SO many photo's of our wedding day, it's hard to narrow down the favorites! We have received so many compliments on the quality of our photo's from friends. I would highly recommend Adri and Lucas to capture the special moments of your day! -

Ashley S. Sent on 06/03/2024Love her personality and quality of her work
I had a list of photos I wanted, and Adri captured them all, right down to the little details. My husband and I are both camera shy and she helped make the photo sessions less awkward. Her professionalism and eye for detail is key. The way she captures the natural light is unlike any other photographer I have seen. My husband and I are so happy with our photos/video. Adri and Lucas were such a warm and welcoming team and I could not be happier with the outcome of their work. 10/10 would recommend them for your wedding day! -

What an amazing experience!
Lucas was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we reached out, there was open communication and quick responses. We were nervous as we never had professional photos done before but upon meeting we both instantly felt comfortable. Lucas and Jurgan were very personable and both easy going so during the shoot we were able to relax, joke around, and never felt rushed. They also didn't hesitate to have fun and even got in the water with us! We were looking for an intimate, memorable and adventurous day and feel like that was fully accomplished thanks to their help and suggestions.
Our sneak peak came so quickly and instantly had me in tears. We couldn't be happier with our choice, we would highly recommended and would book with them 1000x again.
Thank you both again for such an amazing experience and capturing such beautiful, candid moments for us to look back on for years to come!

Worth every single penny
I don’t have enough words to express how amazing Adri and her team are. She showed up with so much energy and excitement! I let her know ahead of time we needed all the directions because we don’t ever take photos and she went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. Received our sneak peaks only a few after and we are in love, so excited to see the rest! -

When I saw Adriana’s work online, I knew I had to have her as our photographer. Photos are arguably one the most important parts of a wedding, and Adri and her team carried out our vision seamlessly, producing only high quality photos and the most beautiful work. We’ve worked with multiple photographers throughout our solidarity/unity journey from NYC to Costa Rica, and Adriana was easily our favorite. I would recommend her and her team over and over again to anyone who needs a photographer. They captured the most beautiful pictures of the best day of our lives, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. -

Sarah B. Sent on 01/14/2024Best Hype Girl Wedding Photographer I Could’ve Asked For
Adri Mendez absolutely made our wedding day dreams come true. Starting by helping us plan a destination wedding from afar, she was able to answer questions about the resort and helped create our day of timeline. On our wedding day, Adri and her team completely lifted all the stress off of Josh and I by providing such positive energy and by helping us be where we needed to at the right time. They helped our day flow so smoothly. Her and her team also felt like friends, and kept Josh and I laughing and loving on each other, allowing her to capture beautiful and natural photos that didn’t feel forced or posed. She made sure to capture ample photos of our wedding guests having the time of their lives as well. Josh and I just received all our photos, and had the absolute best time reliving that day together, both crying and laughing. The photos are filled with emotion and do a phenomenal job of telling the story of our day. I cannot recommend Adri & her team enough for the best wedding day experience as well as capturing stolen moments to help you live that day over and over again. -

Adri is AMAZING! She is professional, responsive, energetic, personable, funny, and SO talented. You will not only wind up with the most beautiful images of your special day, but you will feel like your best friend is the photographer. She has the biggest heart, and it shows through her personality and her work. We were blown away when we received our images from our wedding day. They were beautiful, candid, and you could feel the emotions of the day through the images. She is a rock star, and we are so grateful for her and her talent. We cannot recommend Adri enough! -

Adri is the best!
Adri is not only the sweetest and most positive person, but she is amazing at what she does. We chose her for our wedding in Tamarindo through Mil Besos and could not be happier with the photos and overall experience. She captured natural moments with beautiful lighting and perspective that far exceeded our expectations. She was efficient, prompt, and a joy to have around during our big day! She is the best! -

Most Energetic & Fun Photographer
Adri was so fun to work, her bubbling personality and energy is contagious. Her and her team felt like apart of the party and delivered us the most beautiful photos I could have ever imagined or hoped for. I would undoubtedly recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Adrianna D. Sent on 11/24/2023An absolute dream team ❤︯
We cannot even begin to explain just how overjoyed we are with the work of Adri and her team. She went ABOVE and BEYOND to provide us with the BEST possible experience, and far exceeded our expectations. From the very start, she guided us through the entire experience, not only providing us with all the information we needed from a planning perspective, but the support we needed even emotionally (as you know, wedding planning is no easy feat!). We knew through our very first video call that she was our girl (in fact, she was the first and only photographer we chatted with and we felt THIS confident with our decision).
She kept everything fun, exciting, and stress-free leading up to and on the big day (an absolutely amazing hype girl!) – she took the time to get to know our friends and family, and made sure everyone was having a great time! We laughed a LOT with her and just had the best time. She has a natural talent and exceptional skill, and is just phenomenal at what she does.
We can’t thank them enough for all they’ve done for us and the incredible photos and videos they captured (you get a ton of them, and they are all so magical, it’s hard to choose your favourites to frame). We get to relive our wedding day for the rest of our lives thanks to their AMAZING work.
We can go ON and ON about just how incredible Adri and her team are…but truly, if you are looking for a wedding photographer, we highly encourage you to choose them, as you will not be disappointed. We love Adri and her team, and feel even more so, the bond we formed through the experience feels like we’ve gained new friends. Easily, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day.
Thank you, Adri, Lucas, Dharma, and Jurgen, for making our wedding an extraordinary and timeless experience!

We hired Adri and Lucas for our wedding in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica after being impressed with their portfolio. They have extraordinary style and a unique awareness of what makes for a special memory. Lucas was our primary shooter, but both were so lovely and fun to work with. They captured the candid moments and fun of our event in ways we'll always be grateful for. 1000% percent happy with our decision to work with them. -

I fell in love with her work right away and was so lucky to book her for my wedding! Adri and her husband made the photos so fun. I always feel awkward and she helped us rid of that awkwardness. The guests also loved her and she helped lighten the mood when the downpour was coming during our wedding photos. She was so quick and sent us a sneak peek a week after the wedding. I'd highly recommend to anyone as she'll feel like your friend by the end of the night. Thank you Adri!! -

Marisa L. Sent on 02/08/2021The best photography experience!
I knew that I wanted to do an engagement photoshoot in Costa Rica with a local photographer while traveling there. I picked Adri based on the aesthetic that I saw on her Instagram and website... classy, authentic, modern, and just special. Adri was very communicative before the session and I could feel her positive energy before we met. I asked her tons of questions and shared a pretty specific vision with her, which she took into account for the shoot. Her knowledge of Costa Rica's landscape and climate was vital--she worked with us in the days leading into the session to make sure we shot when it wasn't raining and with amazing light. She's so energetic and funny in person, which really helped eased my fiance's nerves about getting his photos taken. Adri and Lucas have lots of little tricks that they tell you to do while they're shooting to make you laugh. I ended up actually having a good time during the shoot, which I did not expect.
My photos are everything. I can't believe they're of me! They're going to hold up over time and help my fiance and I remember beautiful Costa Rica. Love them. -

We chose Adri because we loved her style and the candid photos we saw in her portfolio. Her packages also allowed for an option with a second shooter. Even though we had a small wedding, I am so glad we went this route!! We got great photos of all the family getting ready, our venue, on the beach, and more. Adri was so nice and made all the photos very fun. She also was kind enough to edit out a strap that peeked out in a few photos. I tried to include both posed and candid photos to show the quality across the board. So happy we made this choice for our destination wedding! -

Adri and her team were soooo amazing! She is as sweet as can be, yet very professional. She definitely knows what she’s doing! She made the most beautiful pictures of my wedding- I’ve had so many compliments on them. She truly catches the Costa Rican vibe in her pictures and her lighting is absolutely gorgeous! One of the best decisions I ever made for my wedding was hiring her as my photographer and Lucas as my videographer! She captured all of the most beautiful moments of my life and I will be forever grateful for that! -

Adri is amazing!!!
Adri was amazing!!! We don't have enough words to describe how fantastic her and her team were. They made you feel super comfortable, super friendly, very professional, and just all around amazing! We just recieved our photos back and they are breathtaking. It made us a little nervous to hire a photographer/videographer that we did not know or had no personal refrence from. But Adri set up a zoom meeting with us right away and we knew from that first time speaking with her, that she was our girl. She felt more like a friend then a stranger after all the conversations and time spent with her and her team. We 100% would reccomand Adri and her team! -

Professional, fun & talented! Look no further
Adri was the perfect choice for our wedding. She is extremely professional, but also so fun! She made our whole group laugh and feel at ease while taking photos. She captured the love throughout the day, and seeing the photos brought me to tears! Adri made sure to get all the photos we requested. Another thing we absolutely loved about Adri is she told us the plan as the day went on, and during cocktail hour, she let us mingle with family and friends (and get a few drinks in!) in between taking photos. During our couple session, she guided us on how to pose as we are not really used to getting our picture taken. Overall I am so happy with our choice, Adri could not have been more perfect. Our friends & family have also commented on how amazing the pictures are. I will cherish these photos forever. Thank you Adri & team!!! -

Most Amazing Photographer & Hype Girl ever!
Where do I even begin? Adri is as AMAZING as it gets when it comes to wedding photographers! My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better person to capture our special wedding celebration and were so impressed by the photos we received! We were immediately drawn to Adri's bright & airy style, as well as her ability to capture so many special, candid moments. Her professionalism, responsiveness & overall positive energy were just a few of her incredible qualities. It's so important to have someone who can help you feel relaxed during such a special day, & not only did Adri put as both at ease, but she made it SO fun! She has such a good vibe and everyone at our wedding could feel it. We were so amazed with how many big and little moments Adri was able to capture. We were brought to tears the first time we saw our album because of how perfectly she captured our day and the love we felt for each other and those around us. Not only that, but she delivered our photos well before we had expected...As if she could get any better!! We highly recommend Adri if you're looking for someone to help create an unforgettable experience that you'll be able to cherish for the rest of your life! -
