Manuel Novo, wedding photographer in Santa Uxía de Ribeira, offers documentary, approachable wedding photography. He captures real emotions and spontaneous moments to tell the story of your day.
Manuel Novo is a wedding photographer based in Santa Uxía de Ribeira, specializing in telling each wedding as a unique story. His work stems from the belief that every celebration is an unrepeatable narrative: it’s not just about posing, but about documenting emotions, glances and details that together form the visual legacy of a lifetime. Why choose Manuel for your wedding? Because his approach is documentary and approachable: he seeks naturalness rather than posed images, emotion rather than staged scenes. In every wedding he prioritizes capturing spontaneous moments — the laughter, the complicity, the fleeting instants — with a sensitivity that honors the authenticity of the day. His wedding photography avoids artifice, favoring clean, luminous images full of intention, created to endure over time. His working method is designed to accompany, not interrupt. Before the day, Manuel arranges a calm conversation to learn your story, priorities and the rhythm of your celebration. On the wedding day he acts discreetly: blending with guests, anticipating gestures and looking for surprises, always maintaining a respectful presence that allows the event to unfold naturally. The result is a reportage that reflects the true atmosphere of the day, from preparations to the party, including those small instants that remain engraved in memory. Based in Santa Uxía de Ribeira, Manuel works throughout Galicia and nearby locations, bringing a composed, attentive eye that adapts to each environment and couple. His portfolio shows weddings in a wide range of settings — historic churches, family homes, coastal landscapes and urban squares — and demonstrates his ability to find beauty in the everyday. If you are looking for a wedding photographer who prioritizes emotional honesty and visual storytelling, Manuel Novo offers personal and professional support. His aim is that, years from now, when you look at the photos, you feel again the same heartbeat of the day: that legacy of moments worth telling with care and truth.
