Minimalistic approach, artistic films

As a documentary wedding photographer, I have had the privilege of documenting love stories in some of the most breathtaking wedding venues in Portugal. This blog serves as a visual archive for couples seeking inspiration for their own celebrations.

Whether you are looking for the industrial, urban charm of a Lisbon warehouse wedding, the fairytale atmosphere of a Sintra palace, or the rustic, sun-drenched beauty of a Quinta in Alenquer, these stories show you how each space feels in real-time. My goal is to show you the honest light and raw emotion of these locations, helping you envision how your day will unfold in the heart of the Portuguese landscape.

From the rugged Atlantic coast of Cascais to the cork forests of the Alentejo, explore our recent work to see why Portugal is the ultimate destination for an authentic wedding experience.
