Menorca Fiestas

Menorca’s fiesta season is a vibrant celebration that draws locals and visitors alike to experience the island’s rich cultural heritage. Taking place throughout summer, these festivities are marked by lively parades, traditional music, and colorful costumes, captivating everyone in attendance.

Each village on Menorca has its own unique traditions, with events often centering around patron saint celebrations. The streets come alive with the sounds of local bands, and participants engage in energetic dances that showcase the island's folklore. The famous "Diana" processions, held early in the morning, herald the start of the day's festivities and set a joyful tone for what lies ahead.

One of the most iconic aspects of Menorca’s fiestas is the presence of the stunning Menorcan horses. Majestic and well-trained, these horses are often featured in parades, showcasing a deep bond between the riders and their steeds. Locals take pride in their equestrian skills, and events such as horse races and competitions become highlights of the celebrations.

Nighttime brings a different energy, as the streets fill with lights, food stalls, and enthusiastic crowds. Traditional dishes, from savory pastries to sweet treats, are readily available, allowing guests to indulge in local flavors. Fireworks often cap the evenings, lighting up the night sky and bringing the festivities to a dazzling conclusion.

For those looking to capture the essence of Menorca during this lively season, the unique atmosphere and spirit of the people provide incredible opportunities for photography. The combination of vibrant colors, emotional moments, and cultural traditions creates a backdrop that tells the island's story. Whether it’s the joy of a crowded fiesta or the quiet moments in between, each image tells a tale of celebration and community that can be cherished for years to come.

Portrait sittings for a talented group of architects

In our opinion, with the exception of music, architecture has the most profound effect on the human mind and is the most powerful art form out there. Within the industry, there are good and bad architects, and everything in-between. It was my pleasure therefore to photograph one of the talented architects that now heads a team of over twenty. Mark Lee has built his practice so they can now design not only the structure but also design and fit the interior, exterior and supply the furniture also. All part of the business he has created. For want of a better phrase...a one stop shop.
