The Fashion Wedding Photographer
ALGARVE | LISBON | PORTUGAL
The Algarve Wedding Photographer
My photography is all about capturing genuine moments where every glance, every subtle gesture, and fleeting expression tells a unique story. Blending naturalness with cinematic aesthetics, I craft images that feel timeless, deeply personal, and alive with emotion.
35mm-Inspired Wedding Photography with a Cinematic Aesthetic
Using Leica cameras—a rare choice in Portugal—I transform your wedding into a visual narrative with depth, elegance, and unmistakable artistry. Recognized as the number one wedding photographer in the Algarve and among the top five in Portugal by the Wezoree ranking, and by the international platform MyWed, my work captures your day with cinematic vision and authenticity. Based between the Algarve and Lisbon, I photograph weddings worldwide—blending artistic sensitivity with a global perspective. Several of my photographs have also been honored as Leica Mastershoot winners, showcasing a commitment to excellence and creative mastery.
