    Perennial wedding  just published a short interview of Toh Gouttenoire on their new blog, it is part of the WQS (Wednesday Question Session)… I’m excited to start working with this new wedding planning company, Kristina is a great and creative wedding planner… I know I’ll get some great details shots with her…
-
Toh has been doing photography for about 15 years, both commercially and now for weddings.  He lives in Tamarindo with his family and we thoroughly enjoy working with him!

What do you do?  I capture moments and create images.

Where are you from?  Born and raised in the center of good old Europe: France.

Who are you in 5 words?  Image lover creative curious photographer

What is your style?  I guess it is either documentary or carefully crafted funky photography.

What is your favorite part of a wedding?  Why?  Just after the ceremony, when all the stress is down, people totally relax and just appreciate the moment they are living, not anymore the anticipation of it.

What do you find to be the most memorable about a wedding?  Well, the fact that it happened…

What is a tip you would like to give brides and grooms about weddings?  Relax… take it easy, especially if you are in Costa Rica… Enjoy the moment don’t ruin it with unnecessary stress, don’t be a BrideZilla, be a Pura Vida Bride…

In a few sentences, as to not bore us :) , what brought you to Costa Rica?  A travel habit fueled by curiosity. I have visited a lot of countries but fell in love with Costa Rica.

What is your favorite place in Costa Rica.  Why?  Tamarindo and surroundings of course (I live there…), for the beautiful bay, beach and waves, but also for the crazy multicultural community living here.

What do you love about your line of work?  Almost everything, how can’t you love being on the beach or other beautiful settings, taking photographs of happy people who give you their trust… honestly…

Tell me something, anything.  My daughter is the most intelligent and beautiful girl in the world… and nothing beats a real baguette sandwich with butter and cornichons…

An intimate wedding kind of improvised…

Holly and Erich knew they wanted their destination wedding in Costa Rica, they also  knew they wanted to stay in Tamarindo but that was it, no plan for the ceremony, no wedding planner… When they asked me if I knew  a beautiful and quiet spot, I thought straight about the Langosta Beach Club… Still on Tamarindo beach but far from the “crowded” part  of the beach…

The   ceremony was  simple and emotional and we add fun with the afterward session… great moments…

Present with the photographs is an interview of Alicia (The Bride) talking about her experience with destination wedding in Costa Rica.

The best part of the interview is in my opinion there:

Who was your photographer and why did you hire him?

Toh Gouttenoire, wedding by Bidrop

Selecting a photographer via Internet and email was not a simple task. I spent hours searching through on line portfolios. International calling with a language barrier was just as daunting. When I spoke with Toh on the phone I realized he was the one for a few reasons in particular: His personality was energetic and creative. He understood my vision for unique photos. He always answered questions in a timely manner. Put simply, he made long distance planning easy.

A really relax and fun elopement at the Tamarindo Diria with Jaclyn and David, also the first time I was shooting a wedding at 10 AM… Being the rainy season, the newly weds to be were preoccupied by the possibility  of the classic afternoon shower of this season… so we end up on the beach at 11 am under the hard light of a super hot sun… but it gave me something different than the usual (but always amazing) sunset… The little wind help us…
