Se casa la hija de un motero!
Cuando Mireia escogía su coche de novia no esperaba que de camino a la boda la seguiría un convoy de motos. Esta sorpresa la puso en marcha su padre motero y no se equivocó! Los pitos de los cláxones y el zumbido de los motores no sólo hicieron reír a su hija, pero sobre todo distendieron todos los nervios. Mireia salió de su barrio con un apoyo multitudinario y ensordecedor. Los invitados que la esperaban en el Mas de Can Riera escuchaban los motores subiendo la montaña y la emoción en el ambiente aceleró al máximo.
Dos motos guiaron el Rolls-Royce blanco hasta el pasillo desde donde Carlos, el novio, miraba a su prometida emocionado. Todos quedaron impresionados con esta entrada tan atrevida. Después de una ceremonia muy emotiva y personal, el día siguió sin interrupciones, pero el nivel de exaltación no bajo hasta el final!

Elopement in Barcelona
“Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain
I’m not much into health food, I am into Champagne
I’ve got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape
At a bar called O’Malley’s, where we’ll plan our escape”
Escape by Rupert Holmes
This beautiful couple came all the way from Illinois to celebrate their elopement in the heart of Barcelona. Their intimate ceremony took place in a secluded park known to locals as Laberinto de Horta. This green paradise is located 15 minutes drive from Barcelona´s old city center and if you visit it before noon, you can hope to have most of it to yourself.
The park with its mystic and dreamlike atmosphere was a great location for the bride and groom to exchange their private vows. After the ceremony, the newlyweds opened a bottle of Champagne and it was time for the rest of their Barcelona adventure. The main attraction of the park- an authentic labyrinth garden- provided an ideal scenery for a warm up photo shoot.
Angela and Joshua felt like celebrating their marriage in the streets of Barcelona, so we quickly visited the nearby Park Güell for a few epic Barcelona shots. Then we moved on to the Gothic Quarter, where we joined locals and tourists in a busy urban environment. We took photos while we walked the streets of a beautiful central neighborhood called El Born. Eventually, we stopped for a quick snack and a refreshing beer in La Boqueria, the central food market of the Rambla.
Eloping is a perfect way to explore Barcelona. If this sounds tempting, do not hesitate and ¨plan your escape”!
“Wow the photos are amazing, thank you so so much Andreu! We want to relive that day over and over again and with these photos we basically can. Enjoyed spending the day with you all and celebrating. “

Destination Wedding in Tuscany
I met Florin Stefan (https://florinstefan.ro/) for the second time at the Fearless Conference 2019 in Aachen (https://www.fearlessphotographers.com/). The conference is always a nice opportunity to see friends from all over the world again and share our photographic experiences with each other.
With Florin, we got to talk about our plans for 2019. He told me he was traveling to Italy in May to photograph a wedding in Tuscany. Obviously, immediately I offered myself immediately to come as a second photographer and he quickly agreed.
So here we were in Tuscany, pouring rain under the cloudy sky. But this didn’t affect anyone’s attitude or mood. That´s one of the things I love more about destination weddings. Everyone is there on holidays but on top of that, they have the opportunity to enjoy a wedding with family and friends in a completely different context as they usually would. The bride and groom, Rumanians based in The Netherlands, they got a good mix of friends from back home and from all over the world.
From the very beginning everyone made me feel very welcome and part of the team. One of the things I love the most about being a second shooter at a wedding is that you can take off your back the responsibility that comes as the main shooter. You are there to help in anyway you can, but also to enjoy and have fun photographing, almost as doing it for pleasure. You can find angles, perspectives and moments that otherwise, being the main photographer; you wouldn´t always have the time and the patience to spot.
The weather forecast wasn´t very optimistic, but that didn´t stop the bride and groom to have an outdoor wedding. It was an orthodox ceremony and I loved it. It is always very interesting to see different kinds of religious celebrations rather than the ones we are used to. It´s a privilege to observe and learn from different cultures and traditions by being an spectator in such an important day of their life and also to have the luxury to capture it.
By the time we were ready for the cocktail, Florin had already ordered the clouds to open up (there is nothing he cannot achieve) and we enjoyed the last rays of sunshine before dinner. By the end everyone was ready to party to commemorate these amazing few days in Tuscany.
