We have such great news: we’re featured on the inaugural edition of the dedicated Vogue: A Bridal Affair — for Portugal! You can find Luminous Photography in the digital version, accompanied by some of my favorite people — including my wife Melanie, from Andorinha Films!

An artistic and elegant record of Annick and Kosta's beautiful wedding at quinta do lago dos cisnes, in Amares, Portugal!

Photographed by luminous photography, resulting in an editorial, luxury reportage.

I know that I can be both. It took years of photographing, of seeing works outside of my own, of learning from the right people — for me to understand that I don't have to choose. I can give you beauty AND joy. I can make art with you, and make your party look happy and fun. I can give you the chiaroscuro of emotions that I so love to see. ⁠

Consigo dar-vos beleza E alegria; consigo fazer arte convosco e ao mesmo tempo, registar o vosso dia de uma forma que mostre a felicidade e a boa disposição. Posso dar-vos o chiaroscuro de emoções que tanto gosto de ver em fotografias ou pinturas.

We met Victoria and Felix as they celebrated their one-year anniversary with a trip to Porto — and a photo and video session with me and my better half, Melanie (Andorinha Films). What a joy it was, to walk with them through the streets of our city, to show them little corners and hidden landscapes, and to guide them through a loving and romantic session!
