We completely forgot there was a camera. The photos feel like a real memory, not a pose. We love them so much.

Photographer in Porto

Portrait photography in Porto — a city made for portraits

I'm a portrait photographer based in Porto, and this city is built for portraits. The narrow streets of Ribeira, the Douro river light at golden hour, the Atlantic horizon at Foz do Douro, the grand facades of Avenida dos Aliados — every corner offers a different mood, and I know which light works for which face.

I photograph solo portraits, couples, engagement sessions, fine art boudoir, maternity and family sessions. If you've been searching for a portrait photographer near you in Porto, you're in the right place — whether it's your first photoshoot or your tenth, I'll guide you through every pose and angle so you never feel lost in front of the camera.

Beyond Porto, I travel for sessions across northern Portugal — Braga, Guimarães, Aveiro, Costa Nova and Coimbra. Studio sessions are available when the weather doesn't cooperate. Every session includes a pre-shoot chat, outfit recommendations, and my signature editing style.

Write to me and we'll pick the right format, location and date together.
