Photographer in Málaga

How a session works

Nothing is improvised. Before the day we talk about what you want the photographs for, and the session is built around that: the light is set up for your face, there is hair and make up if you want it, and there is no rush. Most people arrive nervous and stop being nervous after twenty minutes, which is exactly the point.

You are not expected to know how to pose. That is our job, not yours.

What we photograph

Boudoir and intimate portraiture, done with care and complete discretion. Couples. Families and children. Corporate portraits for teams and personal brands, including headshots for actors and professionals.

What our clients say

These are published as they were written, with the name and where each one came from.

I have to admit that I used to get very nervous when I would think about my boudoir session since I have always been very shy and someone who would always avoid cameras. I was never good at posing. Luckily and thanks to all the preparation that was done prior to the session, all the information that I had been given and the words of support that i got from Raquel during the session, this ended up being a wonderful personal journey for me. The ‘turbulent sea’ became pleasure and I now feel like an experienced sailor in front of the camera. There wasn’t a moment where I felt intimidated. It was all so much fun and cozy that I didn’t have time to feel nervous. It was truly an amazing experience. Thank you!

Everything. I’ve enjoyed every second. Raquel is an incredible photographer. From the very first interaction —planning the session, sharing ideas on Pinterest— to the big day itself, it was one of the most fun experiences I’ve ever had. Ana did an amazing job with my hair and makeup and helped with all the crazy little things during the shoot. If you’re looking for a photographer who truly brings out the best in you, I highly recommend Raquel and her team at La Gallarda.

Amani, Benalmádena

What I loved the most was the privacy of the session and how qualified Raquel is from the very beginning. She instantly understood what I wanted from my photos, how I planned to use them, and how to bring out the best in me. She made me feel comfortable at every step. I enjoyed every minute and totally recommend her service: professional, creative and trustworthy.

Ali Meehan, Fuengirola

The treatment was so warm and welcoming, with a relaxed and comforting atmosphere thanks to Ana and Raquel. Everything was wonderful. I never knew I could look this way. Raquel’s eye puts your self-image into perspective and strengthens your self-love. I felt a new confidence after this experience.
