FAQ

What kind of weddings are you looking for?

The ones that feel personal, relaxed and a little unpredictable. Small, unusual and non-traditional weddings are genuinely welcome here: a dinner for twelve, a ceremony somewhere unexpected, a day that doesn't follow the usual script. What matters most is that it feels like the two of you.

How much direction do you give during the day?

Enough when it helps, and no more than that. I'm not a purely documentary photographer who never speaks: if the light is beautiful or a moment needs a small nudge, I'll say so. For most of the day I stay close, keep out of the way and let things happen.

Do you work from shot lists?

Not really. A timeline and a short list of family groups are completely fine, and useful. A long list of scripted shots, or recreating images from Pinterest, isn't how I work, and probably isn't the right fit.

Will our wedding look exactly like the weddings in your portfolio?

No, and that's the point. The portfolio shows how I see, not a formula. Your wedding will have its own people, light and moments, and the photographs will reflect that.

Can we see a complete wedding?

This page is a curated selection. Full galleries are available on request: get in touch and I'll send one that fits your plans. If you'd rather start with a place, there's an elopement in Porto, one in Lisbon and more on elopements in Portugal.
