Christopher & Isabella

A love that began at church

Christopher and Isabella met while attending church services. I loved knowing that about them: the church was part of their relationship long before it became part of their wedding day. After a proposal on a night they remembered as magical, here they were, ready to get married.

The ceremony took place in the crypt of the Sagrada Família, and I found the atmosphere incredibly inspiring. Some spaces make you want to change the way you photograph them. This one made me want to look more closely and keep what was already there.

What stayed with me most was how naturally Christopher and Isabella belonged in that setting. The architecture was striking, but I kept coming back to them. Together, they gave the photographs a warmth that mattered just as much as the surroundings.

When I worked on the colour, I wanted it to feel like the place I remembered. The cinematic quality came from paying attention to the atmosphere of the crypt and allowing it to carry through the photographs. It was important to me that the finished series still felt like their day.

After the ceremony, we continued to Castell de Santa Florentina in Canet de Mar. The castle appeared as Horn Hill, the home of House Tarly, in Game of Thrones. For Christopher and Isabella, it became the next setting in a very personal story, following a ceremony that already meant so much to them.

I came away from this wedding feeling so inspired. Christopher and Isabella were a wonderful couple to photograph, and their story gave the ceremony a meaning beyond the setting itself. That is the feeling I wanted to keep: two people, a place that mattered, and a day I loved being part of.
