Engagement Photoshoot in Historical Lisbon | Margarida + Miguel
Spring in Lisbon is pure magic—golden sunlight, warm breezes, and the scent of blooming jacaranda trees filling the air. When Margarida and Miguel reached out for their engagement session, they knew they wanted something relaxed, fun, and romantic. We decided on the historic heart of Lisbon, where charming cobblestone streets, azulejo-tiled facades, and breathtaking viewpoints created the perfect setting for their love story.
A Stroll Through Alfama
We started our afternoon in Alfama, one of the city’s oldest and most picturesque neighborhoods. As Margarida and Miguel wandered hand in hand, laughter and sweet glances filled the air. The winding alleyways, lined with colorful buildings and rustic balconies, provided a beautifully intimate backdrop for capturing their genuine connection. Every turn revealed a new hidden gem, from ivy-covered doorways to sun-dappled staircases.
The Iconic Yellow Tram & Riverside Romance
No Lisbon engagement shoot is complete without a touch of its famous yellow trams! As the couple posed playfully in front of one, their joy was contagious—smiles, twirls, and spontaneous embraces made for the most heartwarming shots. We then made our way to the Tagus River, where the soft afternoon light created a dreamy atmosphere. Against the shimmering water and under the grand arches of Praça do Comércio, Margarida and Miguel shared quiet, romantic moments, their love radiating effortlessly.
Golden Hour Magic
As the sun began to dip, we ended the session at Miradouro de Santa Catarina, one of Lisbon’s most breathtaking viewpoints. The golden hues of sunset wrapped around them as they held each other close, soaking in the beauty of the moment. The city stretched out below, a reminder that love—like Lisbon itself—is timeless and full of wonder.
Margarida and Miguel’s engagement photoshoot was everything they dreamed of—relaxed, fun, and deeply romantic. Their love story came to life against the backdrop of this historic city, and I feel so honored to have captured these genuine moments for them.
