HOW WE WORK IN BARCELONA

We come from Madrid by high-speed train (about 2 h 30 min) and stay in the area the night before. We work in Spanish and English. For a destination wedding we usually bring 2 photographers and 2 videographers, and we can also cover the pre-wedding shoot, the welcome dinner or the brunch.

Every proposal is tailored to your wedding.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How far in advance should we book photo and video for a Barcelona wedding?

We recommend booking 9 to 12 months ahead for weddings from May to October. We give each date to one couple only, and it is held once the contract is signed.

What are the best months for light in Barcelona?

May, June and September. In late June the sun sets around 21:30 and in mid-September around 20:00. For golden-hour portraits we suggest a ceremony about 2 hours before sunset.

How does travel to Barcelona work?

We travel from Madrid by high-speed train (about 2 h 30 min) and stay near the venue the night before; Sitges is about 40 km from Barcelona. Team travel, accommodation and transfers are quoted separately and itemised in the proposal.

Which languages do you work in?

Spanish and English: meetings, contract, coordination with your planner and the wedding day itself.

Can you fly a drone at a Barcelona wedding?

It depends on the exact spot. Our process: 1) once we have the venue's address, we check it on the official ENAIRE Drones map; 2) El Prat airport's controlled airspace covers much of the city and nearby coast and needs prior coordination weeks in advance; 3) protected areas such as Garraf Natural Park need permission from their managing authority; 4) flying over guests or in urban areas must be notified to Spain's Ministry of the Interior at least 5 working days ahead (Royal Decree 517/2024). If it is not legal to fly there, we don't fly: our contracts say so.

What happens if it rains?

Our process: 1) about 2 weeks before, with our 15-day questionnaire, we go through the covered plan B for every moment with your planner; 2) the day before we check the AEMET forecast and adjust the portrait time; 3) if it rains at portrait time, we move it to the first break in the weather or to a post-wedding session.

How much does wedding photo and video in Barcelona cost?

Photo and film from €8,000. Team travel and accommodation are quoted separately, depending on the number of days and people.
