INVESTMENT

FOR LIFE.

You will only know the value of good photography when photos are all you have left.

Wedding photography is an INVESTMENT!

At the end of your wedding day, your friends and family will go home, your wedding dress will be stored in your closet and your flowers will wither.

Your wedding photos will be the only thing you will keep forever!

They will represent the moments you experienced and lived.
They will be the tangible representation of all the memories you kept in your heart. Everything else will vanish.

Do still consider wedding photography a cost?

F.A.Q.

Frequently Asked Questions

I combine the true to life storytelling photojournalistic approach with the beauty and elegance of a more editorial style. As any other fellow photographer, my style is unique and I tend to provide a very well balanced collection.

You can always ask me to have a more photojournalistic or more editorial approach depending on your preferences.

I started my carrier as a photojournalist in 1999 and I’ve shoot my first wedding in 2000.
Since then, I never stoped shooting weddings as it is what a really love to do!

I lost count on it, but I can assure you that, over the years, I’ve shooted more than 600 weddings.

Sure, and you should!

You are looking for a photographer that can visually tell the story of your wedding day.
You are not looking to have just a few pretty photos for your instagram, right? … anyone can do that!

Check out our portfolio. There you will find our signature images and some galleries with complete weddings.

Me and my team love to travel 🙂

In the last few years we have traveled for destination weddings in:
– Spain
– France
– Belgium
– Italy
– Croatia
– Ireland
– England
– Brazil

On a wedding day I don’t like to work with time restrictions.

My clients usually are looking to have a full story of their wedding day and not just a part of it.

I feel much more comfortable knowing I have the time to capture everything without having to rush my clients on this special day. That’s why I work with a flat rate, so you don’t have to be worried about the time.

I start at the time we previously agreed and end when your wedding day is about to finish.

Yes. Me and my team are professionals!
Professionals can’t afford to compromise client’s work.
In our bags we always carry, at least, one duplicate of every piece of equipment we need (cameras, lens, flashs, …, and batteries…plenty of them!).

We have implemented a very secure backup routine system and, at any given moment, we always have at least one duplicate of all of them.
It all starts at the moment we capture your photos. All our cameras are equipped with dual memory card slots and cameras are setup to make an instant copy of any picture we take on both memory cards in camera.

On your wedding day, as soon as we have time, we copy the memory cards to a laptop and make a copy to an external hard drive, this way assuring that, by the end of the day, we will have 4 copies of your pictures in 4 different places.

As soon as we get home we copy your photos to 3 more different places:
– To our work station;
– To an external backup NAS (Network Attached System);
– To an off site cloud storage located in the USA.

And yes!…. we are kind of paranoid about risking to loose your photos!

You will receive all your photos individually edited and ready to print in 1 to 2 weeks after your wedding day.

By the same time, you will receive the first version of your wedding album’s design.

As soon as we receive your agreement on the wedding album design our supplier will print it and bind it.
It usually takes about 10 working days to have your wedding album with me.

Sure.

I’m always open to create what ever pictures you wish.
But also, keep an open mind and remember that your wedding is unique!
Sometimes is impossible to gather the conditions to make some specific photos you wish.

Yes.

We are a team of 4 photographers and, depending on your collection, you will have me shooting solo or with one of my trusted second photographers.

All my second photographers are seasoned professionals and not just an assistant or someone starting in the job.

Their mission is to provide a second view of your wedding day, assuring coverage of events happening at the same time that I can’t do it by myself, and be a backup in case I get hit by a bus or something 😀

I will deliver as many photos as I need to tell your wedding day story.

Just like the time restrictions, I don’t like to work with image limits either.

However, I can promise you approximately 60/80 photos per hour shooting when working solo, or 80/120 if I am with a second photographer.

Sure!

In 20 + years in business, I’ve had the pleasure of working with clients from all over the world, with different cultures, celebrating civil and religious weddings.

Concerning religious weddings, I’m experienced shooting Catholic weddings, Protestant weddings (of all denominations since Anglicans, Pentecostals, Jehovah Witness…), Jewish weddings, Indian weddings (Hindu, Sikh…), Muslin weddings… you name it!

ASAP!

The more time we have to know each other and plan your wedding, the better!
On the other hand, to be able to provide the best wedding photography experience my clients deserve, I can only shoot a limited number of weddings per year. Usually no more than 18 per year.

Usually, by January / February, I’m fully booked for the year.

For week days is usually easier to find some openings in my calendar.

Get in touch to check our availability!

1 – Get in touch ASAP (shoot us an email or call) to check if I’m available for your wedding date.
Please, provide as much info as you can (Your preparation location, ceremony venue and the venue you hired for your party and if you have a wedding planner).

2 – Book with me a free video call or let’s meet in person and let’s go over all your plans and dreams and see if we are a good match.

3 – To secure your date, we need to sign a contract and pay a non refundable deposit of 30% of your quote.

Don’t take my word for it

What clients say about me

An exceptional experience with Miguel.

From the moment we saw Miguel’s work we were drawn to his style. Since our first meeting, we noticed he is super friendly, extremely fun, flexible and professional.
On the wedding day he was always super natural, we barely noticed his presence during the all day. We only noticed him at the our couple photoshoot at the end of the day and during family formals we requested.
Best of all, we got married on a Saturday and by Monday we already had the photos edited and ready!
We were surprised by the speed and high quality of service!
We met again later to decide on the album and Miguel was once again was super flexible and always available to fulfil all our requests.
We can only thank you and say to all couples that if you want an excellent professional, Miguel is, without a doubt the best option.
Amanda & Diogo

Blessed to have the best photographers at our wedding.

We had the pleasure and were very, very lucky to find and hire the best team of professional wedding photographers for our destination wedding in Portugal.
Believe me, I am not exaggerating when I say this!
Being the bride, the expectations for the day were very high! We moved all our friends and family from Dubai, Romain, England, France to Portugal in a multicultural wedding.
Miguel and his team took care of every detail and all moments of our wedding day were captured perfectly by a team of professionals who put all their effort and passion into making sure we have a day to remember.
Highly recommended.
Emy & John

Outstanding service.
Incredible photos.

We contacted Miguel well in advance, about a year prior to the wedding day. He promptly responded and we scheduled a video call where we were immediately comfortable with his refined humor and thorough briefing. On the big day, everything was well planned and Miguel and his team were always in the right places at the right times to capture all the moments. The team consisted of 2 photographers and 1 videographer who were always in sync with a genuine passion for what they were doing. This was amazing. Within 2 weeks, we received the photographs brilliantly edited amazingly curated and extremely beautiful. I can only thanks Miguel who accompanied us from the start and we will certainly recommend him!
