When should book a session with you?
Any season in Mallorca has its own beauty and I am here all year long, so will be happy to book a session for you and helping to decide on the best location for your time in this paradise.
Spring and Summer book up fast, so it will be a good idea to book the session 3-4 weeks in advance… or as soon as you know the dates you will be in Mallorca!
However, feel free to contact me if you have made up your mind on a photo session only once you are in Mallorca. I may have some free slot and will be happy to organize your session around that time.
What time do the sessions take place?
What my session would look like?
We would meet up in the agreed meeting point and you will be playing, chatting, laughing and enjoying the beauty of Mallorca with your loved ones for 1-2 hours… with me capturing all those fleeting moments for you with my camera.
If there are kids in your group, I usually try to get a few "posed" pictures done first to then dedicate the rest of the session for candid photos whilst everybody is relaxed and enjoying this time together.
What happens if it's raining or cloudy?
If it's a rainy day, we will re-schedule your session. If it is no possible to find a free slot in our calendars, you can decide to get a full refund or move your booking for the following year. I check the weather at all times, so will email you a few days in advance of your photoshoot if I think we may need to postpone it.
Sessions on cloudy days will go ahead as scheduled. Light is softer with an overcast sky, which can make really beautiful photographs and your session could be even better than in a bright, sunny day.
We are looking for a mix of candid and posed family photos. Can you do both?
Of course I do! My goal is to create beautiful and authentic memories of the time you spend with your loved ones in Mallorca, so you will see me ducking, running or hiding behind a tree to capture candid moments with my camera. Still, if you want we will also take some photos with everyone looking at the camera and showing their best smile. I'll guide you throughout the session with hints and tips so you'll also get those posed, but very natural looking images.
What do you recommend to wear for the session?
First and foremost, wear clothes that you feel comfortable in. The photoshoot is about your family or love story in Mallorca, not a fashion shoot.
Being said that, I know that everybody wants to look great in photos, so once your booking is confirmed, I will send you a personal guide with colour palettes and tips on how to choose your outfits based on your preferred locations and backdrops for your photoshoot.
I know my clients find it inspiring and super useful at the time of packing for their vacations in Mallorca!
I want to book a Couple photoshoot, but my partner is not very keen
This is one of my most frequently asked questions! But do not worry, my sessions are by design fun and relaxed and my job is to make you (and your partner!) feeling comfortable in front of the camera.
In preparation to the session, we can always set up a chat or video call with you and your partner, so that we meet each other, discuss expectations and allay concerns.
When and how will we see our photos?
Your collection of images will be ready within 1-2 weeks of your photo session. I will send you a link to a password protected gallery with detailed instructions on how to see and download your photos, as well as easy ways to share your favorites or the entire gallery with friends and family.
How many photographs will you take? How many will we get?
I am pointing and shooting all the time along the session, so that I can ensure a large number of candid and authentic moments captured during the shoot. I also create a couple of group portraits during the session. Then, I carefully pick the best shots from each moment to create beautiful memories for you.
The number of final photos varies depending on your session package. In any case, you can be sure that absolutely all the final photos in your gallery have been carefully selected and edited one by one with care, creativity and professional dedication.
Are the photos that we get retouched?
My edition process consist on a very natural retouching and colour correcting, as well as artistic cropping in some cases to get the best images at the highest quality for you to enjoy.
I can direct you during the session to get a natural but flattering look in some posed photos, but I do not modify body shapes or alter your natural beauty during the edition process.
How long will be our photos accessible in our private gallery?
Your private gallery will be active for three months after the session. I could give you some additional time if you need it. Just let me know about it a couple of weeks in advance of your album expiration date.
What if I want some fine art prints or wall art with my photos only after I see them in my online gallery?
You will be able to order fine art prints, wall art, holidays cards and also additional downloads from your gallery up to three months after your session. All products will be delivered at your home or the address that you indicate in your order.
Feel free to check with me on print product prices at the time of booking your session.
Can we bring some props to the session?
Make sure to bring fresh water, a “must” at summer time. If your photoshoot is at the beach or in the countryside, a beach towel or picnic tablecloth could be also a good idea to sit comfortable on the ground.
For families with young kids, feel free to bring snacks or candies, ideally those than can be eaten easily and which don’t make a mess of outfits. You can also bring balls, kites, bubbles… anything that your kids love and you like doing together as a family.
For couples, even your love is the best accessory, you can bring anything relevant for your connection and that make you feel especial together… it could be a ring, flowers, a book, a love letter, or even beach tennis rackets!
What if my child is not behaving or doesn’t smile in all the session?
Don’t worry. I love working with kids and I am hugely patient. My sessions are designed to be fun, fast moving and very candid. Kids may be a little shy when meeting a stranger and do not feel completely relaxed at first, but once they see me interacting with you, they will begin to relax and trust me too.
I usually ask parents to do some activity with their kids, such as picking flowers or shells, playing peek-a-boo, piggy-back rides or just walking, chatting, cuddling, tickling or playing together to their favorite outdoor game. You will get beautiful and authentic shots from your photo session!
We only have a few hours in Palma, can we do a photoshoot in the Old Town?
Yes! I have done several photoshoots in Palma Old Town, with families, couples and groups of friends, and all of them have been great!
I will get you strolling through the city, enjoying its narrow streets, the historic buildings and beautiful gardens of this charming city.
Palma Old Town is a great location for couples, small groups of friends and even families with children, specially from September to May or early in the morning on summer months.
