Specialist in family photography in Leioa: lifestyle sessions that prioritize natural, spontaneous moments. Perfect for families, newborns, children and intimate celebrations.
I’m María Izkue, a photographer based in Leioa with a clear passion: telling family stories through natural, heartfelt imagery. My work focuses on family photography — social and lifestyle sessions that aim to portray authenticity, those small gestures that often go unnoticed but say everything. I live on the Biscay coast and I travel wherever there’s a beautiful story to tell, always with the simplicity and respect family environments require. Why choose me: I understand families because I enjoy the process as much as the result. My specialty is creating a relaxed atmosphere where parents and children feel free: it’s not about stiff poses, but about accompanying real moments so smiles, looks and bonds naturally emerge. I work with newborns, babies and children, and I also cover intimate family celebrations such as baptisms, communions or birthdays, always adapting the pace to the needs of the little ones. My style and philosophy: I practice social and lifestyle photography. I seek natural light, simple compositions and a close narrative; the result is warm, honest images full of emotion. I’m inspired by small details and everyday sensations: a caress, an exchanged look, a shared game. That spontaneity is what I try to capture in every family session. How I work: before the session we talk to get to know your story and expectations; this helps us choose the place and time that suit you best (at home, outdoors or at your preferred location). During the session I prioritize movement and interaction: I give gentle guidance when needed and move unobtrusively to catch sincere moments. With newborns I adapt timing and the environment to ensure calm and comfort. The value I offer is a combination of sensitivity, experience and closeness. If you’re looking for family photos that truly show who you are, I’d be delighted to accompany you in Leioa and the surrounding area. I also bring experience in portrait photography and occasional fashion or advertising projects, while always keeping family photography as my priority.
