What is an Elopement?
An elopement is an intimate and personal way of getting married, usually without the presence of many guests. It is a celebration focused on the couple, which can be both spontaneous and planned, and often takes place in special locations that hold deep meaning for the couple. Instead of a traditional wedding with a long guest list and complex logistics, an elopement allows the couple to focus on what truly matters: their love and commitment.

Our wedding at Secret Papagayo was small, with about 30 guests, but it was truly magical – and Joice captured every single moment beautifully. What I loved the most is how present she was the entire time, always ready to catch the perfect moments without ever feeling intrusive. My husband, who usually doesn’t like taking photos, felt completely comfortable during the getting ready, which says a lot about how talented Joice is at making you feel relaxed. And for me, while I was getting ready, I felt at ease, almost as if I were with a friend – and that made all the difference. I 100% recommend Joice: if you want photos that truly tell your story and are as breathtaking as the memories you hold in your heart, she’s the one to hire.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Joice for a surprise engagement shoot in Monteverde, and I can’t recommend her enough. From start to finish, she was warm, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. She helped me plan the logistics around a surprise proposal in the cloud forest and made what could’ve been a stressful moment feel completely natural and relaxed. She has a great eye for scenery and light, and managed to document the proposal beautifully while blending in seamlessly. Afterward, she guided us through a post-engagement shoot that felt fun, easy, and true to who we are — no awkward posing or over-the-top direction, just genuine moments. The photos came out absolutely stunning and captured the setting and the feeling of the day perfectly. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to work with nature, light, and real moments, Joice is exceptional.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I highly recommend Joice!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were referred to Joice through our event planner (Tui Frye @ Blue Butterfly) and booked her for a milestone event, as well as a family session the following day. She was wonderful to work with in advance of the event -- great with communication and sharing recommendations and very flexible and accommodating with my requests. And we could not be more thrilled with her work. I LOVE the photos not only because she captured the emotion of many special moments during the ceremony with such perfection, but also because the coloring is so rich and beautiful. When it came to the family photos immediately following the ceremony, as well as our family session, she was especially skilled at giving us direction to avoid photos that felt stiff or awkward. At both sessions, she was prompt, patient and so friendly, and we never felt rushed. I highly, highly recommend her!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
