working in

menorca


story-led photography capturing the authentic spirit of the island

Menorca has been part of my life for over 40 years. That deep connection means I don’t just know the locations – I understand the rhythms, the light and the stories that make this island special and authentically Menorcan.

I work with island restaurants, hotels, agroturismos and local producers to create imagery that drives bookings, builds brand recognition and showcases your authentic connection to the island -rooted in place, tradition and Mediterranean spirit.

about

Lou IN MENORCA


I’m Lou – a photographer who splits her time between the Cotswolds and Menorca, where this beautiful island has shaped both my approach to photography and my way of life.


Menorca has been part of my world for over 40 years. That long-standing connection means I don’t just know the locations, I understand the rhythms, the quiet corners and the kind of light that makes something feel authentically Menorcan. This isn’t a trend or an opportunity – it’s home; and I carry the island in my heart every single day

Every project benefits from established island relationships, deep cultural understanding and a photographer’s eye shaped by Menorca’s extraordinary landscapes, flavours and pace.

Based in the UK & seasonally in Menorca | Available across the Balearics

why work with me in menorca

01.

AUTHENTIC
ISLAND
EXPERTISE

40+ years of connection means I understand the rhythms, quiet corners
and perfect light that makes something feel authentically Menorcan – not a tourist perspective, but genuine local knowledge.

02.

SEAMLESS LOCAL CONNECTIONS & LOGISTICS

From permits and locations to weather patterns and seasonal timing, I handle the complexities. Established relationships mean access to authentic settings and trusted collaborators.

03.

CAPTURES
THE REAL MENORCA FEELING

Beyond pretty backdrops – imagery that reflects the island’s quiet luxury, authentic culture and Mediterranean soul. Photography that doesn’t just look like Menorca, but feels like it.

03.

STRATEGIC APPROACH WITH ISLAND HEART

After running my own award-winning bakery, I understand what it takes to create content that works. You get strategic thinking (drive bookings, maximise ROI) combined with deep island authenticity.

planning a

menorca shoot?


I’m based in Menorca seasonally throughout the year and can plan around your project timing.

Both! I work with Menorca-based businesses and UK/European brands shooting on the island.

Each project is tailored to your needs and goals. Typically includes: pre-shoot consultation and planning, personalised mood board and shot list, photography session, professional editing, and delivery of high-resolution images via private gallery. We’ll create a custom proposal outlining
deliverables and investment during our discovery call.

I work in English and I’m gradually expanding my Spanish – and I’ve found that kindness, clear planning and creative vision go a long way wherever you are.
