We're just a few days away from your big day!
At this stage, it’s completely normal to feel a mix of emotions — the excitement of “I can’t wait for it to arrive” and the nervousness of “I hope everything goes well.” Every couple goes through this, so please know you’re not alone.
From our experience, we’d love to share one important piece of advice: this is your day — no one else’s. Focus on each other and on enjoying your guests. Try not to worry about the small details. The team of professionals you’ve carefully chosen will be there to ensure everything runs smoothly and to make your day as beautiful as possible.
Even if something unexpected happens, remember — that’s part of life. And most of the time, only you will even notice. What truly matters is how you feel and the memories you create together.
Most importantly, the day will fly by. Take a deep breath every now and then, pause, look around, and be present in the moment.
We can’t wait to meet you and spend this special day by your side.
With love,
Bárbara and Tiago
TO TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION
Our Arrival
We often arrive slightly before the scheduled time to document the surroundings and setup. If you don’t see us immediately, don’t worry — we’re already there capturing the first moments.
Meals
Please include us in all meal times. We’re on our feet for many hours, often in the sun, so staying hydrated and well-fed is essential.
For the main meal, we kindly ask to be served the same meal as your guests and, if possible, at the same time (or slightly before), so we don’t miss important moments like speeches. Being seated close to the main dining area is also greatly appreciated.
Getting Ready Space
A tidy preparation space makes a big difference — especially for video, which cannot be edited like photos. We know it’s not always easy, but minimizing clutter helps ensure beautiful results.
Wedding Details – What to Bring (Optional)
If possible, have ready:
Rings and ring boxes
Wedding stationery (invites, RSVP cards, menus)
Perfume/cologne
Jewelry
Extra florals
Personal notes
First Look & Portraits
First looks are quick and intimate — 10 minutes is plenty.
If you see each other before the ceremony, we recommend using that time for family and bridal party photos so you can fully enjoy cocktail hour. Having a photo list and someone who knows the guests helps keep things efficient (about 35 minutes is ideal).
We suggest leaving couple portraits for sunset, when the light is softer and more flattering.
Sunset Session
We love setting aside 15–20 minutes at sunset for just the two of you. The light is warm and beautiful, and it’s a perfect quiet moment together. Check your sunset time and plan accordingly.
Music For The Film
If you’d like specific music included in your wedding film, please let us know within 5 days after the wedding. We’ll always do our best, but some songs may not be suitable for cinematic or licensing reasons.
Our Departure
Coverage is up to 10 hours.
Please ensure key moments are included in your timeline. Additional hours are €500/hour.
A Final Note
Our style is documentary photo reportage — we capture what genuinely happens throughout the day. Your presence, energy, and authenticity are what make the final result truly special.
Take deep breaths.
Smile often.
And don’t be afraid to cry — hopefully tears of happiness. 🤍
QUESTIONNAIRE
It’s very important for us to hear the details of your day directly from you.
While your wedding planner or day-of coordinator may share a timeline, they don’t always send it to us - and sometimes there are personal details only you can provide.
This day is about you and your loved ones and we want to make sure everything reflects that.
