Suso Rivas, wedding photographer in Santiago de Compostela, creates natural, timeless wedding reports. His close, documentary approach captures the emotion and unique details of each celebration.
I’m Suso Rivas, a wedding photographer based in Santiago de Compostela. I love the natural, the genuine and the authentic, and I bring that vision to every wedding reportage. For me, a wedding is not just a sequence of images; it’s the chance to enter, for a few moments, the lives of people celebrating something very important and to tell their story with sensitivity and respect. My style seeks the truth of the moment: natural, timeless, documentary wedding photography. I aim to blend in like one more guest, like a friend, so that gestures, glances and silences flow without artifice. I’m equally interested in big emotions and small details — the light at an instant, the texture of a dress, a stolen laugh — because all those nuances build the visual narrative of your day. I work from closeness. Before the wedding I like to meet you, understand what matters to you and how you want to remember that day. During the celebration I am discreet and observant: I prefer to capture life rather than direct it. The result is wedding photos that withstand the passage of time, images you’ll look at today and that will still move you years from now. Nature, music and cinema influence my outlook: I’m drawn to landscapes that complete the scene and atmospheres that make each celebration unique. Based in Santiago de Compostela, I photograph weddings throughout Galicia, always respecting the environment and the personal style of each couple. If you share my vision of wedding photography, I would love to meet you and talk about how to tell your story.
