Figueres · Alt Empordà

Figueres, capital of Alt Empordà, thrives on commerce, Dalí Museum visitors and its role as the hinge between the northern Costa Brava and the French border. A well-crafted digital storefront lets local businesses capture both local customers and the constant flow of visitors.

Local context

A town with two audiences and a wind that rules

Ever since the Dalí Theatre-Museum opened in 1974 on the ruins of the old municipal theatre, the Empordà capital has lived with two audiences at once: locals shopping on the Rambla and at the Thursday market, and day visitors choosing where to eat on their phones. Add the nearby French border, which brings French customers all year round. Business photography here has to work for everyone: no captions or overlaid text that would force a version per language, and dishes, shop windows and rooms that explain themselves.

The other factor is the tramontane, the cold, dry north wind that can blow in any season. It leaves clear skies and very hard light, great for façades and landscape, but it makes a still life on a terrace or a windswept portrait tricky. So we confirm outdoor shoots against the wind forecast a few days ahead, and always keep an indoor plan ready.

What it needs

What we include when photographing a Figueres business

  1. Language-free images

    Menus and windows shot so that a customer from Perpignan understands them as well as a local; the words go on the website, not in the picture.

  2. Shoot days that avoid Thursday

    If your premises are near the weekly market, we pick another day so the street and window are clear.

  3. An indoor plan B

    When strong wind is forecast, we move product and portraits indoors and save exteriors for a calm morning.

  4. Dishes ready for review sites

    For restaurants that rely on day visitors, dish and dining-room shots ready for your Google profile and booking platforms.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

We can cover a company's event during the town's main festival on 3 May, as long as it is booked early: the centre is busy and access changes.

Yes: since they carry no text, the same images work across every language version of your site and on social media.

We shoot the indoor part and reschedule the exteriors for a calm day; how a date change is handled is written into the quote from the start.
