FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about booking destination wedding photography & film in Portugal.
Is travel included in my quote?
Yes — the first 100 km of the wedding-day route from our studio in Santo Tirso is included in every package. We calculate Studio → your venue → any other locations → Studio. Beyond 100 km, travel is billed in €15 blocks per additional 20 km.
How much is the deposit, and does it reserve my date?
A 30% deposit of your total quote (including VAT) reserves your wedding date. You can pay it securely online as soon as your proposal is ready.
When is the remaining balance due?
The full balance should be settled by 24 hours before your wedding day. Paying in full at checkout instead of a deposit also gives you a 10% discount on your services subtotal.
What languages can we communicate in?
Your whole proposal and booking experience — and our conversations — are available in English, Portuguese, French, German, and Spanish.
What album packages are available?
Two options: the Standard Album (€750) and the Luxury Album, which includes two matching replicas for family (€1500). Both can be added while building your package.
Should I pay online or book a call first?
Whichever feels right. You can secure your date with an encrypted online payment straight away, or book a short pré-reserva call first to talk through your package before paying — no payment is taken for the call.
How accurate is the weather shown on my proposal?
If your wedding is within about two weeks, we show a live forecast. Further out, we show a multi-year typical average for that calendar day and location, so you can plan with a realistic expectation.
Is photo and video editing included?
Yes, professional editing of your photos and film is included in every package. A printed wedding album (Standard or Luxury) is an optional add-on you choose separately.
I lost my proposal link — how do I find it?
Use "Find your proposal" from the homepage and enter the email you used when booking. We'll show every proposal linked to that address so you can reopen it.
How many hours of coverage can I book?
Packages are available in 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, or 14-hour blocks, with the option to add a second photographer and/or videographer for extra coverage.
Where are you based?
Our studio is in Santo Tirso, in the north of Portugal — this is also the start and end point used to calculate travel via your venue and any other wedding-day locations, anywhere in mainland Portugal, Madeira, or the Azores.
Are the prices shown with or without VAT?
Line items and subtotals are shown net (sem IVA); the total, deposit, and full payment amounts shown are gross, including Portugal's standard 23% VAT — so what you see is exactly what's charged.
