Birthday & Cake Smash — Girona

Birthday & Cake Smash in Girona — The experience

Light and setting matter as much as the people in frame. Girona is a medieval Catalan city of golden stone, mirroring rivers and ramparts, perfect for shoots with a historic, romantic feel.

A children's session captures the innocence, curiosity and unique personality of little ones, from newborns to babies and birthday celebrations. The medieval stone reflects a warm, enveloping light, especially at dawn and dusk, while the narrow lanes offer soft shade at midday.

Best locations for birthday & cake smash in Girona

For birthday & cake smash in Girona we choose the spots that best fit the session's style:

Pont de les Peixateries Velles (Eiffel Bridge). Frame through the red iron latticework of this Eiffel-designed bridge to set the riverside houses as a backdrop.

Coloured Houses of the Onyar River. Shoot from the Pont de Sant Agustí in mid-morning, when the ochre and red facades mirror crisply in the Onyar's water.

Steps of Girona Cathedral. Place the subject midway up the grand baroque staircase at sunset, when the stone takes on a warm golden tone.

The Call, Jewish Quarter. Seek out the narrow lanes and stone staircases at midday, when the overhead light slips between the walls and creates dramatic shafts.

Styling and wardrobe for your session

Opt for soft, comfortable clothing in pastel or neutral tones, bring a couple of changes of clothes and the child's favourite accessories or toys so they feel secure.

Spring and autumn are ideal for their golden light and mild weather; summer is hot, but the old-town lanes stay cool.

Logistics, timing and pricing

The old town is compact and pedestrian, so almost everything is covered on foot, though the stairs and cobblestones call for comfortable shoes.
