ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS
ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER IN LISBON
An engagement is both a quiet promise and a powerful beginning…
It’s a moment suspended between what has been and everything still to come. It is a story best told through light, movement, and emotion, guided by a photographer who understands how to turn fleeting moments into lasting memories. Your engagement photoshoot becomes more than images. It becomes a visual poem of connection and love.
Portugal offers a timeless backdrop for this chapter, and Lisbon is its most cinematic stage. Sunlight drapes itself over tiled façades, tram lines curve through historic streets, and panoramic views open toward the river.
As your engagement photographer in Lisbon, I capture your moments together, framed by the city’s textures, colors, and rhythm. Your engagement photoshoot is about atmosphere and feeling, blending romance and discovery in a place where every corner feels like a scene from a film, and every moment feels unforgettable.
OPEN CALL TO ALL THE LOVERS OUT THERE
Whether you are celebrating a meaningful date or anniversary, preserving the memories of a journey shared, planning a proposal or an official engagement photoshoot before your wedding, every reason is beautiful enough to be captured. Each moment you choose to honor becomes part of something that deserves to be remembered with intention, emotion, and artistry.
We can wander to a place that feels special to you, where time slows down and the world fades into the background. Together, we will spend an unhurried, thoughtful moment documenting not only how you look, but how you feel in each other’s presence. This experience is not about posing or pressure. It is about ease, connection, and the quiet magic that exists when two people are fully present with one another.
Your engagement photoshoot is meant to feel natural and cinematic, guided by warmth rather than expectation. There is no need for tension or performance. In fact, the beauty of these photoshoots lies in their softness. This is my invitation to you: to be exactly who you are, to move freely, to laugh, to pause, to hold each other close, and to let your moments unfold without interruption. The most powerful images emerge not from perfection, but from authenticity, from the small gestures and shared glances that reveal the depth of your bond.
If you would like a little inspiration before your session, I invite you to explore my Engagement Photoshoot Guide, where you will find thoughtful tips on what to wear and how to prepare. It is designed to help you feel confident, comfortable, and aligned with the atmosphere of your engagement experience.

SHOULD WE REALLY DO AN ENGAGEMENT SHOOT?
I'm asked quite often about this
You can look at the engagement photoshoot from two angles.
Firstly, as the opportunity to go through the experience of being photographed before the wedding, as a sort of a test-drive for the big day. Also, 90% of the couples I photograph don’t have any professional photos of their story together. That needs to be changed right away!
Secondly, (which is my favourite) en engagement shoot is the perfect moment to relax a bit from the wedding preparations. Diving deep into your connection and feeling closer to your photographer will make everything a lot easier on the wedding day.
I’m based in Lisbon, but we can go anywhere you’d like.
