Wedding photographer in Igualada capturing natural, emotional moments and genuine connections. Artistic reportage with retro textures and tones, plus professional digital retouching for a personal finish.
I’m Josep Balcells, a professional photographer and digital retoucher based in Igualada. My wedding photography focuses on documenting real emotions and sincere gestures; I look for images that convey calm, tenderness and that sense of memory — the Catalan idea of “antany” — which turns a glance into a lasting recollection. My style blends the spontaneity of reportage with a carefully considered visual treatment: textures, effects and retro/vintage tones that emphasize the unique atmosphere of each celebration. Why entrust me with your wedding reportage? Because I understand a wedding as an intimate story: I don’t just photograph scenes, I reconstruct sensations. I work so couples can feel comfortable and forget the camera; my approach is discreet and conversational, encouraging natural moments. On the wedding day I move with respect and attention to detail, seeking sincere fragments — gestures, silences, looks — that later become images that move you when you revisit them. My process is friendly and transparent. Before the day we talk to learn your story, priorities and the tone you want for your photographs. During the coverage I combine documentary capture with short directed moments when the couple needs them, always preserving authenticity. After the session I perform meticulous digital retouching that enhances the artistic character of the photos without losing their truth: color grading, texture work and treatments that reinforce either the retro aesthetic or a more contemporary finish, depending on what we agree. I regularly work in Igualada and the surrounding areas — Barcelona, Manresa and Sitges — adapting to different venues and specific needs. My goal is to deliver a wedding reportage with its own personality: photos that recall feelings, that tell your story now and for years to come. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who combines documentary sensitivity, a distinct artistic style and professional digital retouching, I’d be delighted to meet you and create a lasting reportage together.
