We are Evan and Natalia Simon, a married couple who have photographed and filmed weddings since 2000, based in Avilés. We photographed a wedding at the Palacio de la Concepción in Gijón, and this is how it went.

The palace

The Palacio de la Concepción sits on the hillside of Somió, at Camino de Quintueles 50, 33203 Gijón. It was built in 1903 in the style of the French châteaux and has more than five hectares of Victorian garden, with views over the bay of Gijón. Wedding catering there is by Deloya Gastronomía.

Our wedding there

The couple had everything in one place: the ceremony outside in daylight, the drinks and the gardens afterwards, and the meal indoors. We covered the whole day, start to finish.

They found us on Bodas.net and booked three months before the wedding. They paid €1,080: the €1,200 price with a discount. We tell the whole story in how much a wedding photographer costs in Asturias.

Booking

We take bookings from tomorrow up to three years ahead. A deposit of between €100 and 25 % of the price, depending on the photographer, holds the date. On Bodas.net we have 5.0 stars from 14 couples' reviews.
