Insights into a full-day shoot with me on Mallorca - your exclusive photo shoot experience
Mallorca is a true paradise for unique and professional photos on Mallorca. The island offers a magnificent backdrop with historic old towns, beautiful beaches and idyllic mountain villages. Whether you want professional images for your personal branding, a sedcard or simply some beautiful memories, a professional photo shoot on Mallorca is the perfect opportunity.
In this article, I'll give you a detailed insight into the process of a full-day shoot on Mallorca. The process described here is an example based on my experience as a photographer in Mallorca and has proven to be successful. Of course, you can plan your shoot individually with me at any time and adapt locations or the time schedule according to your wishes. Whether you opt for urban backdrops, hidden nature spots or exclusive villas - together we will create a concept that suits you perfectly.
Why a full-day shoot on Mallorca is the best choice
A professional photo shoot is much more than just a few quick shots. It is an artistic production in which light, surroundings and expression must harmonise. Especially on Mallorca, where the landscape is so varied, a whole day offers countless opportunities to create breathtaking photos on Mallorca.
The advantages of an all-day shoot
➤ Diverse backdrops: Whether city, nature or beach - an all-day shoot gives you a wide range of image styles.
➤ Perfect lighting conditions: During the day, the light is constantly changing. We use different phases - from soft morning light to golden hour in the evening and consciously choose the best time for each individual photo spot!
➤ Multiple outfits & looks: With an all-day shoot, you can capture different facets of your personality or business styling in pictures.
➤ Relaxed atmosphere without time pressure: The all-day shoot gives you enough time to feel comfortable in front of the camera and try out different poses.
➤ Personalised advice & styling tips: I not only help you with posing, but also advise you on your outfits to get the best out of your photos on Mallorca.
Whether for your business, your brand or as a memento - a full-day shoot offers you the opportunity to get high-quality and versatile photos in Mallorca that perfectly reflect your personality.
1. planning - preparation for the perfect shoot
A successful shoot begins long before the actual photography. That's why we discuss all the important details in a detailed telephone consultation, so that you are optimally prepared.
We clarify the following points, among others:
➤ What kind of photos you want and what style suits you. Would you like modern business portraits, natural lifestyle shots or an entire sedcard?
➤ Which outfits are best suited. I'll help you choose and give you tips on which colours go best with the different locations.
➤ Which locations are ideal for your photos. Mallorca offers a wide variety of backdrops - from the charming old town of Palma to luxurious villas and beautiful beaches. I know my way around and will be happy to advise you.
➤ Which accessories or props are useful to make your pictures even more unique.
Thanks to this detailed planning, you can concentrate fully on the experience on the day of the shoot and rest assured that everything is well organised.
2nd photos on Mallorca - The shooting day starts with hair, make-up and styling
To make sure you feel completely at ease on the day of your shoot, we usually start with professional styling. An experienced make-up artist will take care of your hair and make-up on request so that your look not only impresses in real life, but also looks perfect in the photos.
Depending on your wishes, the styling will either take place directly at my place or directly at your hotel. Before we set off, we'll take some time to go through the outfits and make sure that everything is perfectly coordinated. As soon as everything fits perfectly, we start our photo day.
3. first location: The old town of Palma - Mediterranean flair and soft morning light
The narrow streets of Palma provide a wonderful backdrop for stylish shots. Especially in the morning, the soft light creates a unique atmosphere that is ideal for urban portraits.
We start in the beautiful alleyways of Palma, where the sun shines through the buildings in the morning, creating interesting plays of light and shadow. The architecture of Palma with its old wooden doors, beautiful house facades and balconies gives the pictures a Mediterranean touch.
The shoot in the historic city centre is perfect for anyone who prefers a stylish and modern look. At the same time, we also capture the relaxed atmosphere of the city so that your pictures look both professional and authentic.
4. the second location: the interior of the country - authentic mountain villages or modern fincas
After the first shots in the city, we head into the centre of the island, where completely different scenery awaits us. The landscape of Mallorca changes drastically here: instead of historic buildings and narrow streets, there are extensive olive groves, traditional stone houses and impressive panoramic views over the mountains.
In this example, we have two options that we can combine according to your wishes:
➤ Charming mountain villages such as Deia or Valldemossa: these places are known for their winding alleyways, idyllic squares and typical Mallorcan architecture. Images with an authentic, Mediterranean flair are created here - ideal for a natural and relaxed image aesthetic.
➤ Exclusive fincas: Mallorca offers a variety of modern fincas that can often be rented for photo shoots. They are perfect for stylish shoots, whether for high-quality sedcards or branding photos with a luxurious touch.
During this stage of the shoot, we change outfits several times to create different looks. The lighting conditions in the late morning and early afternoon can be used specifically for different styles.
The combination of traditional architecture and modern luxury locations makes this section of the shoot particularly versatile.
5. lunch break - time to relax and recharge your batteries
An all-day shoot is intensive and requires full concentration. To keep the quality of the photos at a high level throughout the day, a break is essential. That's why we take a lunch break after the second part of the shoot. This serves not only to recharge your batteries, but also to refresh your styling, make any adjustments for the second half of the day and get a first impression of the photos taken so far.
Where and how do we spend our lunch break?
The lunch break can be organised entirely according to your wishes. I know some wonderful restaurants and cafés on the island that are perfect for a relaxing break. Some of my favourites are located near the mountain villages or in the middle of the countryside, where you can process the impressions of the shoot in a quiet atmosphere.
During this time, you can sit back and mentally prepare for the next part of the shoot. New creative ideas for the second half of the shoot often emerge during this break, which we can then realise straight away.
Fresh looks for the second half of the day
The lunch break is also the ideal time to plan an outfit change. The first looks are often more elegant or casual, while in the afternoon we might opt for a more relaxed, summery style.
If you wish, our make-up artist can freshen up or adjust your styling. A more natural and light make-up look is often ideal for shoots on the beach and at sunset.
Once we've recovered, adjusted our styling and gathered new inspiration, we're energised for the last and perhaps most beautiful part of the shoot: golden hour on the beach.
Last location: Beaches and Golden Hour - the perfect end to the shoot day
The late afternoon and evening hours on Mallorca offer a very special lighting mood, which photographers refer to as the "golden hour". This time is ideal for atmospheric, emotional and soft images that radiate a special warmth and vibrancy.
Photos on Mallorca: Why is the Golden Hour so perfect for photos on Mallorca?
Golden hour is the time just before sunset when the light is particularly soft, warm and golden in colour. In contrast to the harsh midday sun, there are no harsh shadows, but rather gentle transitions that flatteringly emphasise the face. This light is ideal for portraits and lifestyle photos in particular, as it gives the skin a natural glow.
Another advantage: the beaches are usually less crowded at this time. While many tourists and locals enjoy the coasts during the day, a relaxed calm returns in the late afternoon, which is perfect for taking photos.
Making the most of the last light
As the Golden Hour only lasts about an hour, we work particularly efficiently here. I guide you through every pose and movement so that we can capture a large number of beautiful shots in a short space of time.
The end of a shooting day
After we have the last pictures in the box, we will pack up in peace and I will give you a brief preview of when you will receive your finished photos. In the following days, I will make a careful selection and professionally edit the best images to present them to you in a high-quality, password-protected online gallery.
