Gonzalo Manera

I am Gonzalo Manera, a photographer based in Majadahonda with over 20 years of experience creating images for brands, magazines and professionals. My approach to professional photography and corporate portraiture is simple: a great photograph should show who you are, not just how you look. I work so your LinkedIn photos, CV images or company portraits communicate confidence, approachability and professionalism, adapting the style to your sector and the story you want to tell. My method is direct and personable. Before the session we discuss objectives and audience: are you looking for a formal image for corporate communications, a warmer portrait for professional networks, or photos for your company website? On the day of the shoot I create a relaxed atmosphere — conversation, clear directions and naturalness — so that even those who aren’t used to being photographed feel comfortable. That ease comes from my experience working with athletes, creatives and executives: knowing when to direct and when to let personality emerge is key. As for style, I adapt to your needs. I favor natural light and clean compositions that enhance the subject’s expressiveness, though I also shoot with studio lighting when a project requires it. I aim for timeless images with a sober visual treatment that work well on professional platforms and corporate materials. The goal is for your photos to perform on LinkedIn, presentations and your company website without losing authenticity. Why trust me? Beyond experience and professional equipment, I bring a documentary and honest perspective: my work has been published in media and used by recognized brands, which has taught me to photograph effectively under different demands and deadlines. I work from Majadahonda and commonly shoot in Madrid and surrounding areas; I adapt to client needs while maintaining direct communication and clear delivery times. If you’re looking for a professional portrait that reflects your personality and strengthens your corporate image, let’s talk. I’m interested in your project so I can offer a tailored visual proposal and deliver photos that truly represent you.
