A new adventure together in Madrid

Recently married and newly moved from Costa Rica to Madrid, this couple wanted photographs that celebrated their new life together. They were after spontaneous portraits and a little memory of this chapter in the city. We joined them for a couple photoshoot around Madrid, with the Royal Palace, gardens and nearby Almudena Cathedral bringing their new surroundings into the pictures.

A city backdrop for their new chapter

Around the palace and Almudena Cathedral, the pale architecture gave their portraits a lovely sense of Madrid. Her olive-toned patterned dress sat warmly beside his white shirt and light trousers. We made wider photographs to keep the grand buildings in view, then closer portraits where the city became a backdrop to the two of them.

Almudena Cathedral helped place their new chapter in Madrid.

A little time in the Sabatini Gardens

The Sabatini Gardens gave the shoot another feel, with clipped hedges, garden statues and water reflecting the trees. We photographed them along the paths and beside the pool, mixing a little movement with places to pause together. The garden greenery and reflections brought variety to the gallery while keeping it connected to the palace setting.

Garden reflections brought a softer side of the palace surroundings.

Their first memories of a new home

There was room for a twirl, a walk along the patterned paths and portraits beside the flowers and stone ledges. Those informal moments fitted what they wanted from the session: photographs of themselves enjoying this new stage together.

The gallery records a lovely beginning, with their marriage and move to Madrid woven into the same memory. A little of their new surroundings, and a lot of the two of them.
