Lisbon Wedding Photographer & Elopement Expert

Hello! I'm Patrícia (she/her), a Lisbon based photographer specialized in designing romantic and high intentional experiences for couples since 2017. I have a bachelor in Set Design which plays a huge part on my dramatic and cinematic photography style. With set design knowledge I learned how to see shadows, lightning and framing in a more dynamic and intentional way to tell a story. My major inspiration is Caravaggio and his paintings. I love the depth and authenticity he was able to capture in his work. So raw, so dramatic, so real. Like him or not, his works make people feel something and that's exactly what I want with my own craft: to make you feel something real when revisiting your memories. I'm also an activist voice for human rights and equality. In 2023 I developed a conceptual project called Phoenix where, joining set design and photography, I explored themes like female oppression and toxic masculinity which led me to exhibit my work 3 times that year as an independent artist. I also got nominated for a national contest to which thousands have applied to. As part of my social responsibility I donate 10% of my revenue to one of 3 associations. When booking with me you can choose which association you would like me to donate to on your behalf. After your elopement I'll proceed with the donation and send you proof of it because transparency is a non-negotiable value of mine. My love for nature is deep and I'm happier when I'm in the woods. I lived 13 years of my life in Sintra which still is my absolute sacred haven. There, one can simply enter in a whimsical fairy tale-like world which is why I love to show it to my couples. I want everyone to be able to feel this place and its beauty. On my time off you might find me immersed in a book, skateboarding, travelling, journaling or mesmerized at renaissance art in some museum while listening to classical music (even though I'm an heavy metal kind of girl). Fernando - my life and business partner for the past 13 days - is a kind soul that you will probably get to meet as well as he'll assist me during your day making sure that you have the best time of your lives. I'm so excited to meet you! See you on the other side, where magic happens.
