Professional photography services in Barcelona


As a professional photographer in Barcelona, I adapt my style to the needs of each project, from fashion and gastronomy to sports, portraits and audiovisual content.


Fashion Photography : Elegance in Every Image


Fashion photography is about capturing the essence of a brand or design. In the studio, I use the three flashes in my kit: the Godox V1 , the Godox AD300 Pro , and the Godox SK400 , to create even, professional lighting that highlights the details of the garments. I also use lenses like the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 GM and the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 Sports , ideal for capturing varied shots and emphasizing details. I also use a strobe light projector to create unique shapes and effects.


Lighting Keys:

  • Main light with a diffuser to soften shadows.

  • Reflectors to fill and highlight textures.

  • Projecting shapes to add creativity.

Food Photography : Bringing Flavors to Life


Photographing food requires precise techniques and absolute control of light. For this specialty, I use both the Godox V1 and the Godox AD300 Pro , depending on the desired effect, and continuous lighting for more detailed adjustments. I also use carefully selected props and backdrops to create different styles according to each client's needs.

Essential techniques:

  • Use of side lighting to highlight textures and volumes.

  • Neutral or themed backgrounds depending on the desired style.

  • Props such as tableware, utensils, and decorations to complement the dish.


Sports Photography : Action at its Finest


In sporting events, capturing movement is key. I use both the Godox V1 and the Godox AD300 Pro to complement natural light or create dramatic effects indoors. My camera of choice is the Sony A7III with the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 Sports lens, which allows me to freeze the action with sharp clarity.


Sports lighting:

  • Using portable flashes to freeze details.

  • I take advantage of natural light outdoors whenever possible.

Portrait Photography: Capturing the Essence of Each Person


Portraits require lighting that flatters the subject. I use the Godox AD300 Pro for outdoor shoots and soft flashes in the studio. Lenses like the Sigma 30mm f/1.8 or the Sony 50mm Macro are ideal for highlighting details and creating pleasing bokeh.


Recommended settings:

  • Main light with a softbox.

  • Fill light to eliminate harsh shadows.

Professional Video Creation: Narrating Visual Stories


The video requires consistent lighting tailored to each scene. For this, I use the Zhiyun Cinepeer CX100 , along with other continuous lights like the Soonwell MT1 and the Zhiyun M40 , achieving precise control over the details. To stabilize my recordings, I use the DJI RS4 gimbal, ensuring smooth, professional shots. Whether for promotional material, interviews, or sports videos, I use the Sony A6700 , which records in 4K at 60 fps.


Key techniques:

  • Three-point lighting for interviews.

  • Using ND filters for outdoor videos.
