Book a Wedding Photoshoot
on the Costa Brava

For peak wedding season (May through October), we strongly recommend booking 6-12 months in advance, especially for Saturday weddings at popular venues. Spain's top wedding photographers often have their prime summer dates booked a full year ahead, particularly in sought-after regions like the Costa del Sol, Toledo, and La Rioja. For off-season weddings (November through April), you'll have more flexibility and may find availability with 2-3 months notice. Weekday weddings also tend to have better photographer availability year-round. When you find a photographer you love on Photo Spain, secure your date with a deposit to lock in their availability — the earlier you book, the wider your selection of top-rated professionals.

Most destination wedding couples book 8-12 hours of photography coverage, which captures the complete story from getting-ready preparations through the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, speeches, first dance, and party. For more intimate weddings (under 30 guests) or shorter celebrations, 6 hours of coverage may be sufficient to capture all the key moments. Full-day packages of up to 16 hours are available for extended celebrations that start with morning preparations and continue through a late-night party or after-party. When estimating your needs, consider adding a buffer of 1-2 hours beyond what you think you'll need — the candid moments between events are often the most treasured. Your Photo Spain photographer will help you build a realistic photography timeline during your pre-wedding consultation.

Yes — Photo Spain photographers cover weddings across the entire country, from the Basque Country in the north to the southern Costa del Sol coast, and even the islands of Tenerife and Mallorca. Travel within the photographer's home region (typically a 50-80km radius) is included in standard packages at no extra charge. For weddings in other regions — for example, a Madrid-based photographer traveling to an Costa del Sol venue — a small travel fee may apply to cover transport and accommodation. This fee is always shown upfront and transparently in each photographer's package listing, so there are no surprises. Many photographers also offer multi-day packages for destination weddings that include a rehearsal dinner shoot or day-after session, which is especially popular for international couples hosting a wedding weekend in Spain.

Tossa de Mar's walled Vila Vella above the beach and the whitewashed bay of Cadaqués are the two postcards. Between them, the Camí de Ronda coastal path opens onto coves reached only on foot, Calella de Palafrugell has arched fishermen's houses right on the water, and Cap de Creus gives bare rock and open Mediterranean at the northern end.

The last two hours of light are what these cliffs and coves are made for — the pines go dark and the water keeps its colour. Cadaqués works at almost any hour thanks to all the whitewash. The tramuntana, a cold north wind, can blow hard around Cap de Creus in any season. July and August fill the parking and the beaches, so June and September are calmer.

Yes, and it opens up coves that no path reaches. Small boats and kayaks go out from Tossa de Mar, Calella de Palafrugell and Cadaqués, and a private hire gives you the freedom to stop where the light is best. Book ahead in season and keep a land plan in reserve: crossings are cancelled when the tramuntana gets up, sometimes at short notice.
