Surprise marriage proposal on the cliffs in Algarve during golden hour

ALGARVE COUPLE & PROPOSAL PHOTOGRAPHER

Every love story is different, and that’s exactly what I aim to capture.

Every love story is unique — and my sessions are designed to capture yours with honesty, ease, and real emotion. No stiff poses, no awkward moments. Just the two of you, naturally connecting against the breathtaking cliffs and beaches of the Algarve. From Sagres to Lagos, from Praia da Marinha to Praia da Falésia, I’ll guide you to the most beautiful light and locations so your photos feel real, warm, and timeless.

A relaxed experience for real, natural moments.

Here’s exactly what you’ll receive:
A planning chat to tailor the session, guidance on outfits and the best Algarve locations, and a relaxed shooting experience without rush. Your curated online gallery will be delivered within 7–10 days.

PLANNING YOUR SESSION IN ALGARVE?

The Algarve is full of cinematic backdrops — from quiet sunrise beaches to dramatic sunset cliffs.

Here are a few of my favourite location for a couple sessions:

  • Praia do Tonel — wide, windswept, cinematic

  • Praia do Castelejo — raw cliffs and powerful waves

  • Praia Dona Ana (Lagos) — intimate cove with warm, golden tones

  • Praia da Marinha — iconic arches and dramatic formations

  • Praia da Falésia — endless red cliffs, soft romantic vibes

Thinking about a secret proposal?

I can help you choose the perfect spot — from Cordoama to Ponta da Piedade — and discreetly guide the moment while you enjoy it.

WHY CHOOSE ME FOR YOUR COUPLE OR PROPOSAL SESSION

My sessions are relaxed, quiet, and focused on the connection between you two — not on “performing” for the camera.

Gentle direction — I help you move, walk, and hold each other naturally. Most couples forget the camera in the first 10 minutes.
Local experience — Sagres is home. I know the light, the cliffs, the tides, the wind, and where to find privacy.
Guidance from day one — outfits, timing, tide, location. You don’t have to guess anything.
A calm presence — I don’t interrupt your moments. I give you space and capture what happens naturally.
If it’s a proposal — I work discreetly. You enjoy the moment; I capture it quietly.
Warm, timeless editing — natural tones, soft highlights, colours that feel like the Algarve.

Whether it’s a simple walk on the beach or a “yes” at sunset, my goal is to make the experience easy, real, and true to who you are.

Words from Our Happy Couples

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

In love with the photos! I did my first couple photoshoot with Giancarlo and didn’t expect it to be such a fun experience.
He made us feel comfortable and captured some beautiful shots. The location was stunning, and with the sunset colours, it felt even more magical.
Truly happy to have captured such a unique experience! It was the best souvenir we could have given ourselves!

Stefania

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We chose Giancarlo for a special photoshoot: a gift for our anniversary. From the very first meeting, he made us feel comfortable with his availability, professionalism and personality.

The location we selected together was perfect and helped create the ideal atmosphere to capture our most beautiful moments.

The photos are stunning, spontaneous, and full of emotion. Giancarlo managed to capture the love between us in every shot, making each moment unique and unforgettable.

Organizing everything with him was very easy: professional, attentive, and always ready to meet our requests.

Thanks to Giancarlo, we now have a precious memory of this special day!:)

Lucia

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An experience that we will carry in our hearts. It was not just a photo shoot, but a moment lived intensely, between sincere smiles, freedom and connection. Giancarlo was able to put us completely at ease, making us feel ourselves, authentic and light like children running at sunset.

The photos tell all this. We couldn't have asked for more.

Thank you so much!
