Portugal Wedding Photographer
Based in Lisbon, now booking for 2025
Olá!
I am Miguel, but most people call me Brilhas or Brilhante. ✨
I’m a documentary wedding photographer, based in Lisbon!
I started pursuing my passion for photography 10 years ago, and more recently decided to turn it into my one and only job!
I’m an extroverted and relaxed photographer, who is always seeking for true connections between people and capturing them with my camera. No poses or awkward moments. Just authentic and real moments.

Testimonials
“The word to describe Miguel is talent. It's incredible the way he captures the moment, the emotions, the expressions... He’ll do a handstand if necessary to get the photo he wants. We hired Miguel to photograph our wedding and he was absolutely incredible. He’s everywhere at all times, and at the same time you don't even notice him! All the photographs are real, alive, beautiful! The editing is careful and the colors are really beautiful. I know he does this every day but he really made us feel unique. Thank you very much Miguel! I don't think I have a wall for so many incredible photographs 🥹😍”

“Miguel is not a photographer, he’s an artist. He immortalized the essence and warmth of one of the most important days of our lives in magical images, full of emotion, movement and warm colors. We are so grateful that someone put him in our path.”

“We chose Miguel to photograph our wedding, because we love his work. Miguel has his own aesthetic when photographing and this was important for the records we wanted of the wedding. In addition to being an incredible professional and always available, Miguel was part of the joy of our wedding and contributed even more to making it a day of happy memories. He is a photographer who adapts perfectly to the people and style of wedding he is photographing and we couldn't have made a better choice.”
