Juan García Rísquez, wedding photographer in Jaén, produces documentary and editorial wedding reports—without forced poses—capturing real emotions in engagement, ceremony and post-wedding sessions.
I am Juan García Rísquez, a wedding photographer based in Jaén, and my aim is for the photos of your day to be more than mere images: they should be memories that still move you years from now. My work is rooted in documentary photojournalism and an editorial aesthetic; I seek sincere images with careful attention to light and composition, where naturalness replaces forced posing. "No forced poses, no stress, no artifice" is not a slogan: it is the way I work so you can live your wedding while I take care of preserving its essence. Why choose me as your wedding photographer? Because I specialize in storytelling. Before each wedding I speak with the couple, listen to what matters to them and propose a coherent visual narrative: from the engagement session to build trust, to the post-wedding session when we want more free and creative images. My experience in documentary photography workshops and ongoing training allow me to anticipate moments, remain discreet at decisive times and be present when emotions are real. My approach: naturalness and refined aesthetics. I work with natural light whenever possible and adapt to each setting—whether a church, a cortijo in Jaén or an estate anywhere in Andalusia—to create timeless images. I am drawn to black and white for its ability to remove distractions and focus attention on emotion. I also offer delivery options designed to make your memories tangible: elegant albums, fine art prints and wall formats that look beautiful in your home. How I work on the wedding day: I arrive calmly and integrate with the rest of the team so as not to disrupt the day’s rhythm. I prioritize documenting real moments—preparations, glances, details, celebrations—and I also create carefully composed portraits when you want them. After the event I personally select and edit the images so that each photograph communicates what happened. Although weddings and engagement sessions are my specialty, my studio in Torredonjimeno also offers family photography and studio portrait sessions on request. If you are planning your wedding in Jaén or anywhere in Andalusia and are looking for a reportage with documentary sensitivity and an editorial aesthetic, write to me: I would love to hear your story and help turn it into images that endure.
