Destination Wedding Photography in Spain
capturing moments since 2020
I'm Lana, the wedding photographer in Barcelona
With more than 12 years of experience in photography, I create timeless, documentary-style photography for couples traveling from around the globe to celebrate their wedding in Barcelona.
From romantic, intimate weddings to big celebrations in authentic wedding venues (BTW, here is the list of the best wedding venues in Barcelona), I focus on capturing every moment with refined taste and genuine empathy. My approach is based on a personal approach, natural light, and timeless memories.
I LOVE HELPING COUPLES AND FAMILIES TURN THEIR SPANISH EXPERIENCE INTO TIMELESS MEMORIES
Each love story is unique, which is why I like to build a deep connection with every couple that chooses me for their wedding photographer in Barcelona.
What I value most is building an empathetic relationship with my clients. Whenever possible, I schedule a meeting before the event and, if appropriate, an inspection of the location.
“Sometimes you will never know the true value of a moment until it becomes a memory.”
From start to finish, Lana brought such kindness and calm to our wedding day in Barcelona! We’re so grateful to have had Lana as our wedding photographer in Barcelona. Her talent, creativity, and calm presence made the whole day feel effortless. She beautifully captured every emotion — even staying late for our spontaneous pool jump photos, which became some of our favorite memories. Lana is a true artist, and we couldn’t recommend her more highly.

FEATURED GALLERIES
These galleries offer a glimpse into the unforgettable celebrations I've had the privilege to document across Barcelona and Spain. Each gallery reflects the unique personalities, emotions, and connections of the couples I work with.
As a Barcelona wedding photographer specializing in destination weddings, I believe the most meaningful photos are created when couples feel completely present in the experience. My approach combines natural storytelling with a refined editorial eye, capturing genuine moments while preserving the beauty of the location, atmosphere, and carefully planned details.

Kelsey & Josh
mas de sant llei
There’s something especially magical about a spring wedding in Barcelona — warm light, blooming gardens, and the feeling that summer is just around the corner. Kelsey and Josh’s wedding at Mas de Sant Lleí captured all of that beautifully.

Caitlin & Mark
GRAN VILLA ROSA
They traveled from the USA to Spain with their closest friends and family to celebrate their destination wedding at the beautiful Gran Villa Rosa near Barcelona. Caitlin & Mark wanted their wedding to feel like more than just one day — a full weekend of connection, laughter, and unforgettable moments!
Kate & Chris
mas huix
Max Huix offered the perfect setting for Kate & Chris’s wedding: a relaxed destination wedding immersed in nature.
Their families stayed together at the venue, turning the wedding into a multi-day experience filled with shared meals, laughter, and quiet moments before the big day. This closeness made the celebration even more special and personal!
Ruby & Özgür
La Baronia
The ceremony framed by the iconic façade, the bride and her bridesmaids getting ready on the grand staircase of the throne room, Ruby and Özgür sharing quiet moments in the main hall, guests celebrating in the courtyard, and, of course, the breathtaking golden hour on the balcony — each scene was filled with beauty and emotion.
I photograph weddings because the emotions are real, raw, honest, and unfiltered. Nothing is staged. Nothing is fake. Just people being completely themselves on one of the most meaningful days of their lives.
Frequently Asked Questions About Wedding Photography in Barcelona
How far in advance should we book you?
Most couples reserve their date 12–18 months ahead, especially for spring and autumn weddings in Spain. If you feel connected to my work, I recommend reaching out as soon as you can.
Do you travel outside Barcelona?
Absolutely. I photograph weddings all across Spain and internationally. Travel within Catalunya is included in most packages, and for further distances, I’ll prepare a simple travel quote.
Do you offer engagement sessions?
Yes — and I always encourage them. It’s a beautiful chance to get comfortable together, explore meaningful locations, and create photographs that feel personal to your story. Many couples use their photos for invitations or wedding websites.
May I customize a package?
Price packages may be customized to best suit your event. Provide me with more details about your needs and I'll prepare your quote. Do not hesitate to contact me via email at hello@lanaalekhina.com to get your customized offer.

I send a small preview within a few days, and your full gallery is delivered within 6–10 weeks, depending on the season.
How do we book you?
If you’re ready, I’ll prepare the contract and collect your details. Once the contract is signed and the 20% retainer is completed, your date is officially secured. After that, we can start planning your engagement session and all the wonderful details.
Do you shoot on film?
I don’t shoot on film — I choose to fully focus on capturing the most meaningful moments without switching between systems. This allows me to be completely present, attentive, and responsive to everything unfolding around you.
