Lanzarote pairs a genuinely grand seafront resort with two real alternatives elsewhere on the island, a hotel garden shaped by one of its most famous artists, and a marina-view hotel on the volcanic south coast. This page looks at Lanzarote specifically, separate from the Spain country page elsewhere on this site, which spreads out across the whole country.

I photograph weddings across the island, a reception beside the Atlantic in Playa Blanca, a ceremony inside a César Manrique-designed garden, portraits along the marina or the island’s black volcanic coastline. Below are the real venues worth knowing, plus the questions couples ask me most before booking a wedding here.

From Intimate Elopements to Big Weddings in Lanzarote

Lanzarote covers both ends of the scale well, from an intimate ceremony on a marina-view terrace to a full resort wedding beside the Atlantic.

I photograph:
– quiet, intentional elopements with just the two of you
– small weddings with close family and friends
– full wedding days with a larger guest count
– multi-day wedding celebrations, including welcome dinners and relaxed moments before or after the wedding

No matter the size or length of the celebration, my focus is always the same: real moments, strong atmosphere, and portraits that feel natural rather than posed. The scale may change, but the intention doesn’t.

Wedding Videographer in Lanzarote: Photo and Hybrid Video Coverage

Alongside photography, I also offer wedding video coverage in Lanzarote as part of a hybrid photo and video approach.

Video is treated as an extension of the photography, captured with the same sensitivity to light, timing, and atmosphere. The focus stays on real moments, movement, and sound, without staged scenes or intrusive production.

For weddings that benefit from an additional perspective, a dedicated videographer can also be included, always working in the same calm, unobtrusive way and fully aligned with how I photograph the day.

This approach works especially well for destination weddings, where intimacy, setting, and emotion matter more than spectacle.

Your Lanzarote Wedding Photographer

I’m Dejan, a Lanzarote wedding photographer.
My focus is always the wedding itself, not performances for the camera. The photos are simply a reflection of the day: genuine, calm, and emotionally grounded.

I take my work seriously, but never myself too seriously. A relaxed atmosphere, clear communication, and quiet confidence make all the difference, especially for destination weddings.

From the moment we met Dejan, he made us feel completely at ease. He has a calm and kind presence, and captured every emotion of the day in a way that felt honest and natural. Nothing felt forced or over-posed, yet he was always in the right place at the right time. His work feels intimate and timeless, and we’ll treasure these photos for the rest of our lives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is H10 Rubicón Palace right on the beach?

Yes, it’s a seafront resort in Playa Blanca with ocean-view terraces and pools looking straight out over the Atlantic.

Is Meliá Salinas still called that, or has it changed names?

It was renovated and rebranded as Paradisus by Meliá in 2023, though older references still call it Meliá Salinas. The César Manrique-designed garden and pool area from 1977 are still there.

Is Hotel Costa Calero Thalasso & Spa good for a smaller wedding?

Yes, its marina-view event spaces work well for a more intimate group, and it’s a short drive from the island’s volcanic south coast for portraits.

What’s the best time of year for a Lanzarote wedding?

Lanzarote stays mild year-round, so timing comes down more to guest travel and trade winds than temperature, spring and autumn are usually the calmest.

Which airport should our guests fly into?

Lanzarote Airport (ACE), near Arrecife, serves most of the island directly, so almost no one needs to connect through the mainland.
