At Baloo Studio in Vallcarca, Irene captures your family's essence with intimate, luminous sessions. Specialized in newborn, maternity and baby portraits; calm experience for authentic images.
I’m Irene G. Ruíz and at Baloo Studio in Vallcarca I turn family photography into an act of connection. My work stems from intuition and an eye that seeks genuine emotion: portraits that speak of intimacy, shared glances and moments that endure. If you’re looking for a family photographer in Vallcarca, I offer a calm, attentive approach so the photos you take home have real soul. Why choose me for your family session? Because my approach prioritizes naturalness and respect for everyone’s rhythm —especially for the little ones. I work with natural light and a minimalist, tasteful style; I avoid forced poses and unnecessary props so what remains in the image is the truth of your bond. My experience as a portrait photographer and my background in communication help me turn feelings into images that speak and move. Specialization and services within family photography: I focus on maternity, newborn and baby sessions, and on family portraits where children and their spontaneity are the protagonists. For newborn sessions I respect the baby’s pauses and provide all the materials and safety measures needed to photograph with care; I recommend booking during pregnancy so we can plan the session in good time. For pregnancies and baby shoots I create a trusting atmosphere in my studio —a cozy space on the bridge in Vallcarca— where families feel comfortable and the session flows naturally. How I work: before the session we connect in an initial chat to understand who you are and what you want to preserve. I often ask for a short reflection to deepen the essence of your moment; then I prepare a moodboard and a flexible plan for the shooting day. During the session I leave room for spontaneity, and in post-production I edit image by image so each photograph becomes a little treasure. More than photos: my goal is to give you roots so wings can grow. Photographs that, over time, will move you again and tell the story of your family. If my vision resonates with you and you want a family photoshoot in Vallcarca that prioritizes emotion and honesty, I’ll be delighted to accompany you.
