Specialist in wedding reportage in Donostia / San Sebastián. I capture authentic emotions with a natural, elegant and editorial approach. I offer full wedding coverage and pre/post-wedding sessions.
I’m Jon Santamaría, a wedding photographer based in Donostia / San Sebastián. My work grows from a curiosity about people, travel and the small details that make each love story unique. I define my style as natural, elegant and timeless with an editorial touch: I aim for images that don’t just look beautiful today but continue to move you for decades. As a specialist in wedding reportage, authenticity is my priority. I prefer to document spontaneous moments — glances, quiet laughs, small gestures — rather than staging forced poses. To achieve this, I create a close, relaxed atmosphere from our first contact: I want to get to know you, understand what matters to you and find where you feel most at ease. That trust allows real emotions to surface on the wedding day and enables me to capture them with sensitivity and photographic judgment. My approach combines documentary storytelling with thoughtful composition and a careful attention to light. I like to explore every detail, look for the perfect light and compose images that tell your story coherently and beautifully. I personally work on every wedding collection; if you need a second photographer I collaborate with trusted professionals who share my vision and style. In addition to full-day wedding coverage, I offer complementary sessions such as pre-wedding and post-wedding shoots. These sessions are an opportunity to relax in front of the camera, get to know each other better and create more intimate, stylized images that complement the main wedding reportage. Couple sessions are a natural part of the process for many clients, and I approach them with the same editorial sensitivity I bring to the wedding day. My commitment is not only to aesthetics: I want the whole process to be a pleasant experience. From our first exchange of ideas to the delivery of your images, I work to make you feel supported and at ease. I always deliver high-quality material through a private gallery and, if you wish, I can design albums that bring together the narrative of your day. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in San Sebastián who captures real emotions with an artistic, editorial sensitivity, I’d be delighted to meet you and tell your story with images that endure.
