5 places for YOUR family photo in Barcelona
There are many more sites, but I think these are perfect and you don’t have to go far away:
- Castelldefels Beach

It is a truly spectacular place. The beach is very large, very wide, you can always find a spot where there are no people and you can enjoy your own company. If you go in the afternoon, you will see some beautiful sunsets and you can take advantage of the golden hour (before the sun goes down) to create unique portraits since at this time the light is the most beautiful. Sand and sea are children’s best friends. And when they are busy playing… you start shooting. You will capture moments where you will reflect pure happiness. And that’s what it’s all about, right? Getting off at the train stop at Plaja Castelldefels, go towards the beach and then walk to the left. Stop where there are fewer people.

This park is not so well known and that is why there will not be so many people. It is a beautiful park that is located near Diagonal and you can get there with the Palau Reial metro. The best time to visit it is in May because in this season the roses that are there bloom and that allows you to take advantage of the flowers that are there to take charming photos. It is a friendly park for children since it has many trees and shadows and there is also a play area for them. It is a place where both couples in love and families will find corners to take wonderful photos.
- Ciutadella Park
It is one of the best known parks in Barcelona. Always full of people, artists, young people playing the guitar, acrobats trying new things, families walking with children. Apart from the 17 hectares of park, they also have ZOO, the umbraculum, a lake to go with boats and a huge fountain. It is a place where there are many different places that allow you to take very varied photos.

- Tibidabo
The only amusement park in the city of Barcelona. There are attractions for all ages. An amusement park is always a perfect place to take photos since the colors, the machines, the food, give a lot of play when shooting. In addition, you can take wonderful photos due to the views of the mountain. These types of parks serve to capture the fun moments, the laughter, the surprised faces or the dirty faces with the sauces of the French fries. Don’t stop documenting your family as it is!

- Jardines de Mossèn Costa i Llobera
A little hidden place, not so well known but one of the most creative and original for couple photos or family photos in Barcelona. They have varieties of cactus, more than 800. It gives the feeling of being in a movie. You can put on a different clothes and adapt to the environment. In this way you will take photos that no one will believe have been taken in Barcelona. It is in Montjuic so it is not difficult to get there.
