Book a Kids Birthday Photoshoot
in Girona

Every age has its magic. 1st birthdays (cake smash sessions) are hugely popular — messy, expressive, and unforgettable. Ages 3–6 give you toothy grins, big personalities, and natural play. 7–12 work great for milestone moments and group friend shots. Teens often prefer relaxed lifestyle setups over staged 'birthday' photos. Tell us the child's age when booking and we'll match you with a photographer who specializes in that range — pacing, props, and approach all change with age.

Totally normal — and our photographers expect it. The trick is not to ask kids to pose at all. Instead, they observe and react: a kid running toward a balloon, lost in a piece of cake, holding a parent's hand, looking out at the ocean. The best birthday photos are unposed. We pair you with photographers who have years of kid experience: they bring small toys, ask silly questions, and let the child set the pace. Most shy kids warm up within 15 minutes. Bring a comfort object (favorite stuffed animal, snack) — works wonders.

Yes — cake smash sessions are one of the most fun bookings on Photo Spain. Most are done for 1st birthdays, indoor (rented studio or villa) or outdoor (a clean grassy spot). You provide the cake (a smash-friendly small one — Spanish bakeries do them for €15–25), an outfit you don't mind ruining (or one you do — many parents go with crowns and tutus), and a backdrop preference (neutral, themed, or floral). The session captures setup, first curious touch, full smash, and giggly aftermath. Bring wet wipes and a clean change of clothes for after.

Professional photoshoots in Girona start from €310. A typical one- to two-hour session runs roughly €310 to €450, depending on the duration and the number of edited photos included. Because the old town is small and walkable, even a shorter package can cover the cathedral steps, the Jewish Quarter and the river houses without rushing.

The eighty-six-step cathedral staircase is the frame with real scale, and the one visitors recognise from television. After that: the coloured Onyar houses seen from the Pont de Sant Agustí, the red iron Eiffel footbridge, the stone arches and stepped lanes of the Jewish Quarter, the walkway along the medieval walls, and the Arab Baths courtyard.

Morning suits the cathedral steps, before the tour groups and the midday contrast; the Onyar houses are best in the last hour of light, when their ochre and rust colours warm up. Inland Catalonia gets genuinely hot in July and August, but the Jewish Quarter stays shaded and cool at midday. Spring and autumn are the easiest seasons overall.
