Why here, why me
A clear photography plan for Portugal
01 · Communication
Planning in English
Calls can be scheduled to overlap with US, UK and Canadian time zones. Decisions, timings and the final quote are documented in writing.
02 · Travel
Itemised before booking
Travel is calculated for the confirmed date and itinerary, then shown separately in the quote. There are no invented flat-rate destination surcharges.
03 · Approach
Documentary, not staged
I work quietly and focus on real interactions. Group portraits and a short couple session can still be planned where they matter to you.

Portugal reviews
What couples say after a Portugal wedding with me
“Die Fotos sind so schön, dass man sie immer wieder anschauen will. Tim hat Details gesehen, die uns selbst entgangen sind.”

“Nicht nur die Fotos sind superschön – auch die Art, wie Tim uns begleitet hat, war hochprofessionell und angenehm unauffällig.”

FAQ
Portugal planning questions
When should we inquire for a Portugal wedding?
+
As soon as your date is fixed. Availability depends on the exact day, so a short inquiry is more reliable than a generic booking-window estimate.
Can you advise on legal marriage requirements?
+
I do not provide legal advice. Requirements depend on nationality, residence and ceremony type. Please confirm them with the competent authority in Portugal or a qualified local planner.
How are travel costs calculated?
+
After the date, venue and coverage times are known, I calculate the practical route and accommodation required. The resulting amount is itemised in the written quote before you book.
What happens if the weather changes?
+
We agree a realistic indoor or covered option with your venue or planner before the wedding. The photography schedule stays flexible so the day does not depend on a perfect forecast.
