Photo Shoot · Cala d'Or
Cala d'Or is a collection of some of Mallorca's most intimate coves – pine-fringed inlets with turquoise water so clear you can see every stone on the bottom. Holiday photos here look like they're from another world.
Cala d'Or isn't one beach – it's a collection of small coves, each with its own character. Cala Gran, Cala Llonga, Cala Esmeralda, Cala Ferrera – pine trees growing right to the water's edge, white limestone rocks and water in every shade of turquoise and blue. Each one is a perfect natural backdrop.
We know all the coves of Cala d'Or and their light at different times of day. We'll choose the one that suits your shoot perfectly – and the photos will look like they were taken in the most beautiful place in the world. Because they were.
From your first message to your finished photos – here's how the day unfolds.

Cala d'Or has several beautiful coves within easy reach of each other. We agree on a starting point and plan our route through the most beautiful spots together.
We move between coves, rocks, the marina and pine paths at a relaxed pace. No posing, no stress – just you, the beautiful landscape and great photos.

Cala d'Or isn't one beach – it's a collection of five or six rocky coves, each with its own character.
The largest and most sheltered of the Cala d'Or coves. The pine-covered rocky sides frame the turquoise water beautifully and create a natural, intimate setting for portraits.
Sandy CoveThe elegant marina at Cala d'Or with its white yachts and waterside restaurants offers a stylish, cosmopolitan backdrop – quite different in mood from the natural coves.
HarbourA small, secluded cove with dramatic rocky walls and crystal-clear water. Quieter than Cala Gran, it's perfect for intimate shots and a favourite for couples.
Secluded CoveThe paths connecting the coves wind through fragrant pine forests. Dappled light filters through the trees and creates a warm, soft atmosphere ideal for relaxed walking portraits.

What is an image look? An image look is the final colour and style edit of your photos – the mood, the colours, contrasts and the overall character of the image.
Was very impressed by their professionalism and would definitely recommend Urlauba Shooting for any photographer needs. Jessica did an amazing job making sure we got the perfect photos.
From the moment of the 1st contact until the final delivery of the photos everything went super smooth. Dirk is professional, fast in responding, knows very good shooting spots on the Island, was open for our ideas and shot exactly what we wanted. We got very beautiful family photos and love them as a memory for this very special holiday (our little daughters 1st time at the beach). Full recommendation!
Talented , easy going , professional photographer who will make you feel comfortable during the session and of course will leave every client satisfied with loads of amazing pictures. Very quick with editing so very soon you can enjoy your new photographies 🥰
Each cove has its own character. Cala Gran is the most open and family-friendly. Cala Petit is more intimate and secluded. Cala Llonga offers a longer sandy stretch. The good news is they're all within easy walking distance, so we can visit more than one during your session and get a real variety of backdrops.
Yes, absolutely. The calm, sheltered water in Cala Gran is ideal for families – children can paddle and play while we capture natural, relaxed moments. The paths between the coves are short and easy to walk, so it's very manageable with young children.
Absolutely – that's one of the great things about Cala d'Or. The coves are so close together that combining two or three in a single session is easy and adds a lot of variety to your photos. We'll plan the route to make the most of the available light.
Early morning is our favourite – the coves are quiet, the light is soft and golden, and the water looks its most vivid. The evening golden hour is also beautiful, particularly around the marina and looking out from the rocky edges. We'll recommend the best timing when you book.
Your professionally edited photos will be ready in your personal online gallery on the same day as the shoot. You'll receive a link by email and can download and share your images straight away – no waiting around.
Cala d'Or is not a single beach – it's a collection of five or six intimate rocky coves, each with its own atmosphere, surrounded by pine forests and connected by winding coastal paths. That variety is what makes it such a rewarding location for holiday photography: within a single session you can move from a wide, sandy bay to a secluded rocky cove to a pine-shaded path to the elegant marina.
The water at Cala d'Or is remarkably clear and turquoise, and the rocky pine-covered sides of the coves frame every shot naturally. The marina adds a more cosmopolitan element – white yachts, waterside promenades and a stylish, relaxed atmosphere that works brilliantly for couple shoots and portraits with a different kind of energy.
We have been shooting in and around Cala d'Or since 2009 and know every cove in every light. Whether you're after the intimate drama of Cala Petit, the family-friendly openness of Cala Gran, or the evening glow around the marina – we'll find the perfect combination for you. And your photos will be in your gallery on the very same day.
