Abar Aranburu

My name is Abar and I have been photographing weddings since I discovered that my curiosity about human stories could become a profession. I was born in Zarautz (1984) and after years working around banquets and events, I found my calling behind the camera. Since then I have refined a clear style: authentic, discreet wedding photography focused on people. Why choose me for your wedding in Zarautz or anywhere in the Basque Country? Because I see a wedding as a story: I don’t look for forced poses or artificial images. What matters to me is capturing the real connection between you, the light that surrounds a moment, and the details that go unnoticed by everyone except someone who pays attention. My work is based on intuition and anticipation: being present without interfering, finding authentic portraits and photographing at the decisive moment. My approach is direct and personal. Before the big day we meet and do a pre-wedding session to break the ice and help you get comfortable with how I work. That meeting helps me understand who you are and gives you confidence in front of the camera. On the wedding day I act with discretion, like a reporter observing, but also with the calm needed to create beautiful moments when the occasion calls for them. I aim for couples to feel relaxed, to enjoy their family and friends, and for the photos to flow naturally without interruptions. In addition to telling your story in images, I offer options for those who want to complement the reportage with physical or audiovisual elements: carefully crafted albums, gift-ready formats, and the option to include video material. All of this is delivered with care and the idea that your memories should endure. If you value wedding photography as more than just a service and want honest, emotional work with an aesthetic point of view, I would be delighted to meet you. Let’s talk about your wedding in Zarautz: I’m interested in true stories and eager to tell yours with sincerity.
