Wedding specialist based in Irun. Alex creates natural, intimate wedding reportage, capturing emotions and genuine gestures so your wedding photos tell the true story of the day.
Hello — I’m Alex Gaztelumendi, a wedding photographer based in Irun (Gipuzkoa). My work focuses on wedding reportage: I seek to capture authentic emotion, sincere gestures and the small stories that make each celebration unique. I work from a specialization in weddings, always with a documentary, natural eye that respects the rhythm of the day. My approach starts from closeness and trust. I believe the best photographs appear when people feel relaxed; for that reason I strive to create a calm, easygoing atmosphere while remaining attentive and professional. I like to combine discreet observation—to catch spontaneous moments—with small, thoughtful directions at key instants, achieving images that are both candid and beautifully composed. How do I work with couples? Before the wedding day we meet to get to know each other, review logistics and understand what matters most to you. On the day I adapt to the schedule and to the needs of the moment: I accompany you without intruding, look for the light and genuine expression, and aim to tell the celebration with care and attention to detail. My objective is that the photographs convey the true emotion of the day and allow you to relive it naturally. The result is a carefully crafted reportage, edited with respect for color and the original atmosphere. I work to preserve the mood of each moment, applying thoughtful editing that enhances rather than alters the scene. Final images are presented in an online gallery where you can view, choose and share your favorites. I offer the same level of attention to intimate ceremonies and larger celebrations across Gipuzkoa and nearby areas. Although weddings are my specialty, I also occasionally shoot social sessions such as maternity, family photography and events. I keep the same philosophy in every assignment: naturalness, respect for each person’s story and a firm commitment to quality. If you are looking for a wedding photographer in Irun who combines documentary sensitivity, a warm personal approach and an honest, emotive result, I would be delighted to talk about your wedding and explore how we can create something beautiful together.
