Specialist in family photography in Benalmádena. I capture connection and tenderness with a minimalist aesthetic and neutral tones. Warm sessions and careful editing for lasting memories.
I am Manuela Monteleone and at Emestudio Photography I specialize in family photography from my studio in Arroyo de la Miel, Benalmádena. My work is born from the intention of preserving the small everyday stories: gestures, glances and embraces that, over time, become a family’s visual legacy. That is why my approach is clear and deliberate: family photography as an intimate, calm and authentic experience. My style is defined by minimalism and elegance. I work with neutral colors and abundant natural light so the images remain timeless and simple, and so attention always returns to the people who appear in them. In every session I aim to create a relaxed atmosphere where parents and children feel safe and free to be themselves; that’s how sincere smiles and natural poses come out, which are so valuable in the future. How do I work? Before the session I talk with you to learn your story, preferences and the kind of images you want to preserve. In the studio I have selected props and fabrics and, if you prefer outdoor locations, I share my favourite spots on the Costa del Sol to make the most of sunsets and natural settings. During the session my role is to guide calmly, suggest simple situations and leave room for spontaneity: I usually combine intimate portraits with documentary moments to offer a varied and emotional reportage. I lovingly create physical products: prints, albums and handcrafted pieces that turn photographs into treasured objects. I also offer artisanal techniques such as cyanotype for those seeking a unique, artistic print. Although my specialty is family photography, I also photograph babies, newborns, communions and first birthdays, maintaining the same respect and care I bring to every family portrait. I work in Benalmádena and throughout the province of Málaga, and I’m passionate about accompanying families at every stage to transform fleeting moments into lasting memories. If you want a close, sensitive session with a timeless aesthetic, I will be delighted to meet you and create your visual memory together.
