Family Photoshoot in Parque Eduardo VII
Autumn in Lisbon is magical, and Parque Eduardo VII was the perfect spot for a fun family photoshoot. This session was extra special—capturing a growing family, with a soon-to-be big sister and her parents eagerly awaiting their new arrival.
We started at the fountain at the top of the park, where the stunning city views and warm sunlight set a dreamy scene. Their little girl played happily by the water, her giggles filling the air. Next, we headed to Pavilhão Carlos Lopes, where the elegant architecture made for some timeless shots.
A visit to Estufa Fria brought more excitement as we watched ducks and peacocks wander nearby—pure magic for a curious three-year-old! Finally, we wrapped up at a playground, letting the little one run, climb, and slide to her heart’s content, while her parents shared a quiet moment together.
It was a beautiful afternoon full of love, laughter, and anticipation. If you’d love to capture your own family’s journey in Lisbon, let’s make it happen!
Family Photoshoot in Jardim da Estrela
There’s something truly magical about a summer morning in Lisbon, especially in the enchanting Jardim da Estrela. The golden light filtering through the grand trees, the soft rustling of leaves in the breeze, and the cheerful sounds of families enjoying the park create the perfect setting for a family photoshoot.
This particular session was full of love, laughter, and a touch of sweet bribery! I had the pleasure of photographing a wonderful mother and her three children—two energetic kids and their adorable baby sibling. From the very start, the older kids were buzzing with excitement, running around the park, asking for the lollipops that their mother had wisely packed in her purse. Their joy and playfulness made for the most natural and heartwarming moments to capture.
Despite all the energy and excitement, their baby sibling remained calm and content, gazing around with big, curious eyes. With soft smiles and gentle cuddles, the baby added a serene balance to the dynamic energy of the older children. It was heartwarming to witness the pure bond between them all.
We explored different corners of the park, taking advantage of the beautiful pathways, the historic gazebo, and the lush greenery that make Jardim da Estrela so unique. The kids loved running through the open spaces, their giggles filling the air as they played hide-and-seek behind the trees. And, of course, there were frequent breaks to sneak a lollipop or two from their mother’s bag!
As the session came to a close, we headed toward the rope pyramid playground, where the two older children found a final burst of energy. They eagerly climbed to the top, striking playful poses as I snapped some final shots. It was the perfect way to end a session—full of adventure, laughter, and the kind of childhood moments that families will cherish forever.
Photographing this beautiful family was an absolute joy, and I hope these images will serve as treasured memories for years to come. Jardim da Estrela provided the perfect backdrop, but it was the love and connection between this mother and her children that truly made this session so special.
If you’re thinking of capturing your own family’s special moments, let’s create something beautiful together. Reach out, and let’s plan a photoshoot filled with love, laughter, and maybe even a few lollipops!

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.

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.

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.
