Music Video & Artist Photography in Gran Canaria

August 19, 2026

I’m Slavik, a photographer based in Gran Canaria since 2015. Most people know me for portrait, couple and family photography here. But I also work on photo and video projects for musicians, artists and businesses. One good example is a project I did with Anu Agafia, a Finnish songwriter and artist.

We shot everything in March 2025. I photographed Anu for her website and also filmed her music video, so during the same project I was working with both still photography and video.

I had a very good experience with Slavik.
Professional and fun photoshooting day and really nice photos + good service!

Anu Agafia

Photographing Anu

Alongside filming the video, I photographed Anu — portraits and some more relaxed, natural shots she could use on her website and for her music. This kind of artist photography is a bit different from a normal portrait session. I tried to get images that actually look like her, not just nice pictures of a person standing somewhere.

Because I was doing the photos and the video myself, it was easier to keep everything feeling like it belonged together.

Filming the Music Video

We filmed at two places on the island that don’t look anything like each other.

Salinas de El Bufadero

The first location was Salinas de El Bufadero, on the north coast near Arucas. Volcanic rocks, natural pools, and the Atlantic Ocean right there in the background. It’s a rougher, more dramatic kind of coastline than the beaches most visitors see.

Pico de las Nieves

The second location was up in the mountains, near Pico de las Nieves — pine forest, much higher up, a completely different feel from the coast. Going from black volcanic rock and ocean to pine trees and mountain air, in the same project, gave the video two very different backgrounds. That contrast is one reason these two locations worked well together.

We filmed the video in Gran Canaria in March 2025, and it was released on 26 September 2025.

Music Video & Artist Photography in Gran Canaria

Photographer and Videographer in Gran Canaria

I mostly get booked for couples, families and portraits, but projects like this one come up too. If you’re a musician, artist or a business and need photography or video production in Gran Canaria, I can help with that. I work independently as a photographer and videographer, so you deal directly with me from the first message through to the finished photos and video.

For Anu’s project, doing both the photography and the video meant I could plan everything as one project, using the same trip and the same locations.

A photo session with me is 90 minutes, from 200 €, and you pay after the shoot. All packages are on the price page. If you need clean headshots for a team or a company, see my business portraits.
