Milena Villalba is a Valencia-based architectural photographer whose work stands out for marrying her architectural background with a keen visual sensibility. Trained in architecture and photography, she brings a thoughtful perspective to built-environment imagery—paying special attention to light, texture, context and the subtle interplay between spaces and their users.
Her practice includes documentation of residential, social housing, cultural and renovation projects across Spain and beyond. With a portfolio that spans vernacular and contemporary architecture alike, Milena Villalba captures the essence of place through composed, atmospheric images.
