Q&A

Connect with this vendor by getting to know them beyond their work.

What’s your favorite aspect of your job?

My favourite aspect of my job is meeting and getting to know people from all over the world and getting to share the most incredible memories with them, forming a deep connection and freezing in time one of the happiest moments of their lives. This aspect of being a wedding photographer feels like pure magic to me.

What is your specialty or personal style?

I love a little bit grainy cinematic style and I capture a lot of dynamic shots that involve movement and interaction. Every couple is unique in their own way and I strive to provide a safe space for them to feel like themselves (even if it’s their first photoshoot) and also guide them to express their feelings and emotions freely by giving a lot of prompts for movement and ideas for poses that look natural. I try and make photoshoots fun and do everything to help couples enjoy the experience because I believe that it’s as important as the result.

Is there a wedding destination or type that’s on your bucket list right now?

Right now there are a couple of wedding destinations on my bucket list, some of them are Madeira and Azores islands. I have visited these places a couple of times and fell in love with them. They are very versatile in terms of landscapes and in my opinion would make the most stunning backdrop for an elopement photoshoot.
