Engagement Photo Session in Altea

Jul 16, 2024

Today, I bring you the engagement photo session of Belén and Michael, a Bolivian and an American living in Spain for work. They have decided to celebrate their wedding at Racó del Pastor in Orba. But first, we had a date for their engagement photo session in Altea.

Destination Wedding in Alicante: Vacation for Everyone

Their decision to have a wedding in Alicante in July is based on offering their guests the opportunity for a wonderful vacation on the famous Costa Blanca. Here, the sun, leisure, and the incredible natural scenery never fail to impress. Though they might be surprised by Alicante’s weather on their wedding day, as you can see in the link at the end of this post.

This is why we did the engagement photo session in Altea, just a couple of days before the wedding, taking advantage of their arrival to finalize the preparations, capturing their excitement and emotion.

Engagement Photo Session in Altea, L’Olleta: A Peaceful Spot

We had only met through video calls before, never in person, and despite the nerves and stress of the unknown, we had a great time and I managed to make the couple feel at ease. The key is communication, feeling comfortable with each other, making it easy, using humor, and ensuring they feel comfortable watching you work so they have a good experience and enjoy the session.

When I suggested L’Olleta, Altea for their engagement photo session and described the setting, they were thrilled with the idea. It’s a peaceful spot, unlike the busy old town in the middle of July. L’Olleta Park is barely crowded, free of visual noise, and offers an idyllic sunset by the sea.

L’Olleta is located right behind the Hotel Villa Gadea in Altea, featuring a historic church in a natural setting, a well-maintained park, and a charming pebble beach, along with the famous L’Olleta Club de Mar restaurant, where the couple could enjoy a romantic date with a view after the photo session.

Here are Belén and Michael, a couple still engaged, just hours away from celebrating their big wedding day.

If you enjoyed this engagement photo session in Altea, don’t miss Belén and Michael’s incredible wedding at Racó del Pastor, Orba. It’s a beautiful estate in the mountains of northern Alicante, with devoted guests who had no idea what to expect during the heatwave in July.
