Photography in Blanes
Somia Digital photographs businesses in Blanes: restaurants cooking fish from the harbour, shops in the centre and along the seafront, and holiday accommodation that fills up in summer. We shoot dishes, products, interiors and team portraits so the business has its own images on its website, Google profile and social media all year, not just in season. Each job gets a fixed quote rather than a set rate.
Blanes · Selva
Blanes is the gateway to the Costa Brava: beaches, the Marimurtra botanical garden and a retail scene that multiplies every summer. Blanes businesses need a website that works hard in high season and keeps winning customers the rest of the year.
Local context
A harbour, two gardens and one week in July
Sa Palomera rock symbolically marks where the Costa Brava begins, and beside it sits a harbour used by both fishing boats and pleasure craft. For local restaurants, that means the day's catch can be photographed as it reaches the kitchen, with a freshness no stock image can fake. For shops, the challenge is the opposite: a centre that swells in summer and must still draw locals in winter, with windows and interiors photographed so the shop is recognisable on Google.
There are two remarkable botanical backdrops: Marimurtra, begun in 1921 by Karl Faust, and Pinya de Rosa, from 1945. And there is one week to avoid: the last week of July, when the International Fireworks Competition, held since 1970, packs the seafront every night.

Every room, the real view from the balcony and the street outside, with no lens trickery.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Each garden has its own management and visitor rules: before planning a commercial shoot there we ask for permission, and if it is not granted we find another backdrop.
Yes, if booked well ahead: fireworks week is one of the busiest of the year.
