Depth, Grit, and Motion. Captured for Your Campaign.

From the Ocean’s Edge to the Heart of Design

I’m Andrew Arango, a surf and real estate photographer based in Nosara, Costa Rica. My work lives in two worlds: deep in the water capturing high-energy surf sessions, and on solid ground documenting architecture with clarity and intention.

I specialize in in-water surf photography for retreats, surf brands, and hotels looking to tell authentic stories through movement and light. On the other side of the lens, I work with real estate agents, designers, and developers to create high-impact images that elevate listings and showcase the spirit of each space.

Whether shooting from the impact zone or a jungle-wrapped villa, I bring a cinematic eye, reliable execution, and an understanding of what commercial clients need—from raw energy to polished delivery.

My Services

  • As a specialist in in-water surf photography, I work closely with surf brands, wellness retreats, and lifestyle companies to create campaign-ready visuals. Shoots are conducted directly in the lineup or near-shore zones using professional underwater housing, capturing surfers, products, and experiences in motion.

  • I provide architectural photography with an editorial approach, focused on design clarity and spatial storytelling. Whether it’s a new build, a boutique hotel, or a private home for sale, I work with developers, interior designers, and real estate agencies to create striking visuals that elevate property presentation and drive engagement.
