About Me

Real Estate in Costa Rica, seen through a photographer's eye

I help buyers, sellers, and renters navigate the Costa Rica real estate market, with a focus on Guanacaste, using a clear, honest, hands-on approach — from the first conversation about what you're looking for, all the way through closing.

Before real estate, I worked as a real estate photographer, which taught me how to see a property the way a buyer does: the light, the layout, the story a home tells. I bring that same eye to every listing and every client relationship today.

I work with expats relocating to Costa Rica and local families alike, offering services in English, Spanish, and French, at whatever pace makes sense for you.

Side Craft
Real Estate Photography

Before I became an agent, I spent years photographing homes for listings — and I still take on photography work.

Great photos are the difference between a listing that gets scrolled past and one that gets a phone call. I offer professional real estate photography for agents, property owners, and short-term rental hosts who want their listings to actually stand out — interior, exterior, drone, and twilight shots available.

If you have a property that needs to look its best online, I'm available to shoot it — whether or not I'm your listing agent.
