📌 If you still have questions, here are the common ones:

How would you define your style?

Do I have to pick a lane? Fine: documentary meets hopeless romantic with a camera. I want my images real enough that you can practically smell the flowers, but emotional enough that you cry looking at them again in ten years. Love, laughter, the inevitable ugly-cry walking down the aisle - I want all of it, unfiltered.

Where are you from?

Portugal, technically - that's where my home, my closet, and my six dogs and cats currently are. But I travel so much that "where are you from" and "where are you right now" are two very different questions, and I genuinely couldn't tell you the answer to the second one without checking my boarding pass.

Do you travel for weddings?

Obviously. Cities, countries, oceans, continents - try me. The only requirements are that you want me there and my calendar says yes. Pack your bags, I'll pack mine. (Also, if you have a spare room I'l happily stay at yours, and if you have dogs I'll even make you a discount).

You haven’t shot at my venue before, will that be a problem?

Quite the opposite! That's the fun part. Familiar venues are nice, sure, but a brand new place means I show up curious, a little nosy, and itching to find every weird angle and beautiful corner before anyone else does. New venue, new creative chaos, more reasons to get excited.

How much time will you spend at our wedding?

All of it. Every single minute while I'm needed and stuff is happening. I start when you start getting ready and I leave after we've all definitely danced too much. I genuinely don't understand photographers who clock out at hour 8 - your wedding doesn't run on a shift schedule and neither do I.

How long will you need to take our couple photos?

Not long, I promise. I refuse to kidnap you from your own party for an hour while your guests wonder where the bride went. Instead, I'll steal you for 5–10 minutes here and there throughout the day: different light, different moments, zero FOMO. You get gorgeous photos and you actually get to enjoy your own wedding. Revolutionary, I know.

Do you take group and formal photos?

Yes, and I won't even complain about it. It's the least "creative" part of the job, sure, but your great-aunt deserves proof she was there too and a few years from now you'll be happy you took them. Posed, relaxed, whatever you prefer - we'll get every group your guest list demands.

Do we have to feed you?

This is the one non-negotiable in my entire contract. I'm running around all day chasing your best moments - I need fuel too, not jut vibes and glitter. Give me 45 minutes to sit down and a warm plate while everyone's eating, and I promise to deliver photos with zero food visibly stuck in anyone's teeth, including mine.

Do you have another team?

I do, and here's why: everyone wants to get married on a Saturday, the year only has so many of those, and I refuse to double-book myself like a chaos gremlin. So alongside me, I work with a small group of brilliant second shooters and a trusted team I've shot alongside for years across different countries - people who'd capture your day basically the same way I would, because we've trained together, not because I handed them a camera and a prayer. I still personally edit and deliver everything myself, every time.

How long do we have to wait for our photos to be delivered?

Industry standard is 6 months. I usually land around 3 - not because I'm a hero, but because I genuinely don't enjoy sitting on your photos any longer than I have to. Need them faster for a specific reason? Ask about the rush delivery fee. I won't judge you for being impatient, I'd be too. I just kindly ask that you don't message me before the due dates asking for photos - I am just one!

And how long will our videos take?

Videos are a slower beast: there's a lot of invisible work making something you'll want to rewatch a hundred times. Industry standard floats close to a year, I aim for 6–8 months. Yes, you'll be dying of anticipation. Trust me, it will worth it - and honestly, getting your video months after the photos and album means you get to relive your wedding in installments, like a very emotionally satisfying TV series.

How can we be sure you won't lose our images?

I shoot dual card, so every photo is saved twice in real time, the moment it's taken. That night, everything backs up to an external drive before I sleep. Within the week, it's copied again to a separate drive kept somewhere else entirely. Only once everything's edited and safely in your gallery do I let any of those backups go. Paranoid? Maybe. Necessary? Absolutely.

What if we are the ones to lose them?

Happens to the best of us. Just message me - I keep everything on file and can resend your full gallery whenever you need it for a small fee after the first year, no guilt trip included.

Do you have an emergency plan?

Yes, and it's more organized than most people's actual wills. If I genuinely can't make it, every wedding has a backup photographer already assigned, all our correspondence is on file, and my passwords live somewhere my team can access if needed. If I'm dead or otherwise incapacitated, I promise whoever replaces me will be thrilled to be there - I just can't guarantee their dance moves will be as unhinged as mine. Those took years to cultivate.

We're sold! How do we book you?

Excellent - I'll be already a little too excited when I get your email so if you're sure just go ahead and send me an email with all your details and after some dancing around the house I'll send the contract right back. A 20% retainer secures your date, and the rest can be paid any time up until the wedding itself. Welcome aboard!
