Book a Wedding Photoshoot
in Girona

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.

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.

No — the staircase and the Plaça de la Catedral are public, free and open at all hours, which is why nearly every Girona session includes them. Entry to the cathedral interior and its cloister is ticketed, so check the current rules and opening times if you want to shoot inside. The city walls and the Jewish Quarter lanes are free as well.
