Golden Hour Photography

I’m Paula, the photographer behind Golden Hour Photography in La Oliva. I specialize in family photography and my passion is turning the golden light of sunset into images that tell your family’s story. I work mainly on the beaches and dunes of Fuerteventura, where the natural surroundings and warm light create the perfect setting for sincere, timeless portraits. My approach is documentary and close: I prefer to capture glances, laughter and the small gestures that truly define a family, rather than rigid poses. I understand that being in front of the camera can make people nervous, so my method is warm and relaxed. I guide with gentle prompts and spontaneous games so children can loosen up and adults can enjoy the moment. The result is natural photos full of emotion and movement that reflect your essence and bond. Before the session we talk to choose the best time and location based on the story you want to tell: an intimate beach sunset, an afternoon among the dunes, or a slow walk that brings out your complicity. I take care to create a relaxed atmosphere where families feel comfortable; often it’s the improvised moments that become the most memorable images. Beyond attention to the moment, I bring local experience: I know the corners and light of La Oliva and Fuerteventura, which allows me to use the sunset to achieve warm tones and clean compositions that enhance affection and naturalness. I work with families of all ages and structures, adapting to each group’s dynamics to ensure both children and adults enjoy the experience. My goal is that when you look at your photos you’ll feel again the warmth of that day and the connection you lived. If you’re looking for a family photographer in La Oliva who values storytelling, golden light and a relaxed experience, I’d be delighted to plan your session and capture those moments that deserve to be remembered.
