Basque Wedding Photographer

Destination wedding photographer for love stories around the world

Thank you for visiting my website! I’m so happy you’re here!

If you’re here is because you’re getting married in the Basque Country and you’re looking for a wedding photographer with a storytelling approach and a very natural and timeless look. Hi, I’m Miguel and I’m a Portuguese destination wedding photographer, passionate about capturing love stories around the world.

Traveling is at the heart of my work, and I’m especially passionate about the beauty and culture of Spain. I would love to have the opportunity to be part of your wedding there and bring my creative vision to your amazing day. I would love to have the chance to show you what I can do!

While I’m based in Europe, I’m always excited to travel to new places, meet creative couples, and tell their stories in the most meaningful way. If I could take just a minute of your time, I’d love if you could check my latest love stories and maybe feel a connection with my type of photography.

This is all I want, to create connections with my couples and have a great time with them!

If my style resonates with you, then there’s just one thing to do: get in touch and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible (usually within 24 hours) to discuss how we can create something unforgettable for your special day.

Thank you very much and talk to you soon!

about THE basque COUNTRY

The Basque Country or Basque Autonomous Community (/bæsk, bɑːsk/), also officially called Euskadi ([eus̺kadi]), is an autonomous community in northern Spain. It includes the Basque provinces of Araba, Bizkaia, and Gipuzkoa. It surrounds two enclaves called Treviño (Burgos) and Valle de Villaverde (Cantabria).

The Basque Country was granted the status of nationality, attributed by the Spanish Constitution of 1978. The autonomous community is based on the Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country, a foundational legal document providing the framework for the development of the Basque people on Southern Basque Country. Parallelly, Navarre, which narrowly rejected a joint statute of autonomy in 1932, was granted a separate chartered statute in 1982.

Currently there is no official capital in the autonomous community, but the city of Vitoria-Gasteiz, in the province of Álava, is the de facto capital as the location of the Basque Parliament, the headquarters of the Basque Government, and the residence of the President of the Basque Autonomous Community (the Palace of Ajuria Enea). The High Court of Justice of the Basque Country has its headquarters in the city of Bilbao. Whilst Vitoria-Gasteiz is the largest municipality in area, with 277 km2 (107 sq mi), Bilbao is the largest in population, with 353,187 people, located in the province of Biscay within a conurbation of 875,552 people.

The term Basque Country may also refer to the larger cultural region (Basque: Euskal Herria), the home of the Basque people, which includes the autonomous community

Are you looking for a wedding photographer in Spain?

My passion about creating and documenting love stories can be seen through my photographic style.

Timeless // Candid // Storytelling // Style // Emotional

These are a few words that define my photography. I want to create a true connection with my couples; this is the best way for me to feel like I’m part of your big day and capture your wedding day the best way I can.

All my couples are different. But they are also the same. Good people who want to celebrate their love and have someone passionate and emotional to capture their day. They are shy in front of the camera but value having good photos to remember the day forever. They are caring, loving, and look at life with a smile on their face.

Do you want to have an amazing wedding in Spain that reflects who you are, your journey as a couple, and your adventurous and creative spirit?

You are looking for elopement photography. This is for couples who choose to break away from tradition and celebrate their love in a way that truly reflects who they are, with each other. My focus as your photographer is to document your day in the most natural way possible, assuring that I show everything that is unique to you.

An elopement is about capturing the real connection between a couple that is ready to create their own rules. It is an intimate expression of your love, a real and personal message to the world.
