I’m Rosa Castells, a professional photographer based in Sarrià‑Sant Gervasi (Barcelona) with a long career in image-making. My specialty is family photography: portraits that tell each household’s story, spontaneous sessions with children and babies, and intimate coverage of events such as baptisms, communions and birthdays. I work from the sensitivity of documentary portraiture to deliver images that convey affection, tenderness and the authenticity of every bond. Why choose a family session with me? Because I combine technical experience with a warm, personal approach. After more than four decades dedicated to visual storytelling, I know how to create a relaxed environment where both adults and children feel comfortable. My aim is not to force poses but to accompany and observe — that’s how natural gestures, knowing looks and everyday details emerge. This calm, attentive way of working is what gives the photographs their value and turns them into lasting memories. My approach and process: we begin with a conversation to get to know your story and expectations. I adapt the session to the children’s rhythm and the family’s preferences: it can take place at your home, around the neighborhood or in my studio, always prioritizing comfort and authenticity. During the session I look for simple light and compositions that highlight emotions; afterwards I make a careful selection and digital retouching to respect the visual integrity of the images. Special care for newborns and babies: I offer delicate, respectful sessions where the child’s wellbeing is the priority. For children and families I use playful activities and games that encourage genuine smiles. For baptisms and communions I combine formal portraits with emotional, candid moments to produce a complete reportage. If you need material for albums or decor, I can advise on formats and finishes. Although my primary focus is family photography, I have the technical resources for retouching and graphic production when required. If you’re looking for sincere images that speak about you, in Sarrià‑Sant Gervasi you’ll find my approach: professional, approachable and dedicated to capturing what matters. Contact me to plan your session and together create the keepsake you want to preserve.
