My Barcelona Guide

May 26, 2015 | 5 Comments

I am so very happy to be able to share this labor of love with you today!!! It’s been almost four years that I moved to Barcelona to become a wedding photographer and I can honestly say that it’s been the best four years of my life! I found my new home, family, profession, passion and I have become (or at least in my mind! :)) a Barcelona ambassador of sorts! In these past few years many of my clients, online and real life friends have been asking me for recommendations, so after countless way too long emails I decided it’s time to put something prettier together for you guys! This is not a step by step tourist guide, this is just a few of my favourite things, favourite places and hangouts in my beloved city! I hope you’ll enjoy reading through its pages, try a few things (& then let me know how was it) and share it with your friends if they are frolicking around in this part of the world too. Without further ado, I present you….. (drum rolls please) MY Barcelona guide… enjoy! xx

p.s: I’ll be sharing my brand new finds and faves on my Instagram feed, so let me invite you to follow enroute of there too 🙂

Thanks for reading!

Engagement Session in Parc de la Ciutadella | Barcelona

May 20, 2015 | 2 Comments

Claudia is doing a masters degree in Barcelona and alongside has been interning for me in the past three months, helping with lots of office things, translations, behind the scenes materials etc. (THANK YOU!!! :)) When her long time boyfriend (and wedding videographer! :)) Dani visited her in Barcelona he took her on a sailing trip and proposed to her! 🙂 Of course I had to jump on the congratulation band wagon the best way I know how, by capturing this super special time of their lives through an engagement session and taking them to one of my favourite parks in the city, the Parc de La Ciutadella. Congratulation Dani & Claudia and HAPPY WEDDING PLANNING in Chile! I’ll miss you!

p.s: shot partly on digital, but mostly on Portra 400 film… the analog files were scanned & processed by the ever awesome Carmencita Film Lab

Ibiza Workshop

May 19, 2015 | 2 Comments

At the end of March, one of my oldest industry friends (as in I knew her the longest :)) Ana Lui invited me to speak on her workshop for Ibiza wedding industry peeps about marketing & social media. Ana has been a true partner of crime of mine in this crazy wedding world… we’ve been helping each other, bouncing ideas off each other and started shooting film together years ago too (in fact we both went to the same film photography workshop together 3 years ago, but both of us were too scared of it for like another two years to try).

Fast forward to March when we shared our journey, inspiration and business triggers at the breathtaking Atzaro hotel with over 30 people and squeezed in two mini sessions with the attendees too. This was my first speaking engagement since university, so naturally I was very nervous but equally excited too!

During our shoot the light was fading fast but we were fortunate enough to work with a bomb team… Ana as the main organiser/planner behind it all, Diva Borelli for drop dead gorgeous hair & makeup, Daniellle for styling, AWESOME and mega-cute model extraordinaires and magical Atzaro of course.

I met some really cool new friends on this workshop and I’m truly honoured that they cared so much about what I had to say so thank you for welcoming me with open arms and thanks you so much Ana for inviting me! I loooooove you!!!

Hello May!

May 5, 2015 | 1 Comment

To be honest, I’m not sure it was such a brilliant idea to restart my monthly roundup posts… they just made me realise that much more how time really super-sonicly flies and how little control do we have over it. Remember when I said April is going to be a chilled one… I hope you didn’t believe me (I did though :)). It was dotted with little trips here and there, Marbella, Torre de Visco, Budapest and characterised by lots of flowers, lots of sunshine and the first few beach days of the year. It was also the month I became obsessed with Instagram… it has always been among my favourite social media tools, but in April it became my absolute favourite. I realised just how many amazing, inspiring women are on there doing their thing, creating beautiful imagery and inspiring people and I got hooked peeking through this little window into their lives, crafts and art. I am blessed to have met many of my real life friends online and I am going strong on Instagram not only sharing all the pretty around me but connecting with these ~~crushes~~ ladies as well. (I started tagging my favourites once a week on my account so you can start following them if you’d like too) So if you’re not already, let’s be friends on instagram and let’s stay positive, let’s keep creating pretty and let’s share the world around us. It’s not only fun but what a great way to keep memories. Above are some of my favourites from this month…..

But now, with May here, let the wedding season begin! Can’t wait to share everything this month has in store & believe me… this is going to be a good one! 😀
