Dinner under the stars
This was an elegant “haute couture” wedding designed with style and a great taste! Every little detail mattered to Maria, the bride to be!
“She thought it all through and had it all under control” – Hugo, the future groom assured us.
When you have a clear vision of what your wedding should look like, do not conform, be persistent and have it your way! Maria managed to have a little chapel opened just for them, she insisted on replacing traditional name cards with carefully selected stones and despite the rain prediction she hosted an outdoor candle diner under the stars. She even kept the wedding venue a secret until the very end.
The most important thing about planning your wedding is to know that the planning ends when the wedding day begins! Maria and Hugo found the happy medium and proved that it is possible to have your perfect wedding vision come true and still fully enjoy playing the leading role on the big day.
They knew how to live and appreciate every single moment! They laughed and cried and danced and laughed even more!
They carefully picked a team of professionals and put themselves in their hands. The wedding planner Claudia & co. from Entre Tonos Pastel was on top of every single detail. The cheery stuff from the venue Xalet del Nin made everyone feel welcome and at home. The catering Sensacions prepared sensational cocktail and dinner under the stars of the Mediterranean Sea.
It was nothing but perfect!
“Andreu! Que si estamos recuperados? IMPOSIBLE!!! Seguimos eufóricos, emocionados, flipados,…en definitiva FELICES. Ni en nuestros mejores sueños podíamos imaginar algo así. Y tus fotos DE ESCÁNDALO!! No nos equivocamos en absoluto con el feeling que nos transmitiste desde el primer momento. Esperamos que hayáis disfrutado tanto como nosotros de todos y cada uno de los momentos de nuestro día. Nos sentimos inmensamente felices de haberos tenido en nuestro equipo.”

Marry me in La Baronia
There is no question about it. La Baronia with its movie-like deco makes for an ideal wedding location! This fairytale house, also known by the name of Can Bosch, is a textbook example of the XX century Art Nouveau architecture (Spanish Modernismo). Built by Antonio Gaudi´s student Joan Rubió y Bellver, this astonishing family house lived through some swinging times before it was converted into a wedding venue by the third generation of owners.
Felisha and Steve came all the way from Los Angeles to Barcelona to celebrate their destination wedding in this dreamy scenery. The house facade with its adjacent gardens does not require much additional decoration. Everything looks great just the way it is! The interiors of the building offer fantastic background for a photo shoot. Cocktail and dinner can be hosted outside and the views are splendid.
“We’ve received your photos in the lovely packaging! We are so excited to share them with our family and friends! They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL! It’s like I’m flipping through a Bridal magazine. They are everything I dreamed of and more. Thank you for capturing this very special moment for us! You two are absolutely wonderful to work with and your dedication and passion for your craft truly shines through your work! The next time we are in Barcelona we will be stopping in to visit you two.”

A Bride who went fishing
One day after the wedding of Jorgina and Miquel in San Carlos de la Rapita, Tarragona, their family boat was due to set sail from the local port. Jorgina´s father is a fisherman and he owns a large fishing boat. Many male members of the family work for him. We simply could not resist the opportunity to witness their return to the port after a day fishing in the Mediterranean Sea. This is how our post-wedding reportage in Delta del Ebro started.
As soon as the boat was moored, the fishermen worked really fast to download all the fish, before the fearless seagulls get to it. We felt lucky and privileged to be allowed on board in the middle of the action. Gal·la, Jorgina and Miquel´s little daughter, was delighted to see her grandfather and uncles work. She was not afraid to inspect the daily catch and posed with a fish in her hand proving that the fishermen´s blood runs in her veins.
When the day of hard work ended in the port, we moved on to the nearby rice fields, the most emblematic landmark of the region. This time of the year, the luscious green rice plant is already sprouting above the ground level, but the flooded black soil is still the dominating texture. In a month, those lands will turn into endless lawns of green.
Delta of the river Ebro is probably the most authentic and unspoiled agricultural region of Catalunya, but it is also renown for its incredible, natural beaches, dunes and swamps. To show the cross section of this magical place, we ended our session by the beach, right where the river reaches the seawaters. The sunset there is so unique, that no camera can capture its true beauty.

Summer in Barcelona
Hot air, burning light, dark shadows, strong contrast of colors, that is summertime in Barcelona. This magical city transforms completely from spring to winter, August being especially hot, busy, and loud.
To me, the streets of Barcelona always mean a new photographic challenge. This is why, I never say no when I have the opportunity to photograph couples in this amazing city, my hometown, Barcelona.
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!
Espai Mas Marroch
This beautiful couple picked some really beautiful spaces to celebrate their wedding. The ceremony was held in a pretty old church in Llagostera. Afterwards, everyone moved to Mas Marroch in Girona. This elegant venue is one of those places where every corner hides a pleasant surprise. The cocktail reception was held in an astonishing wooden-roof pergola. In the evening, an open-air candle light dinner was served in the garden. A treat was not just on the eye, all food was prepared by famous Michelin Star Chefs – the Roca brothers.

A Midsummer Night’s Dream
Gill and Chris brought their friends and families all the way from Scotland to celebrate their wedding day under the blue skies of Spain. And they hit the bull´s-eye! Everyone was amazed with the venue Casa Felix, the food and with how stunning the bride looked. It was one of those weddings where everything goes as planned and exceeds expectations. On top of that, it was Sant Joan, the longest day of the year and a magical night of celebration here in Catalunya! If that was not enough, it coincided with Chris’s birthday! Que vivan los novios! Lang may yer lum reek!
“You’ve been amazing and kept us so relaxed all day. We barely even noticed you being there throughout the day. Our guests were amazed by the photos and we will be recommending you to anyone else we know that gets married in the future. Loads of love.”
