Kids run wild. Parents breathe. Real moments unfold.
I photograph your family exactly as you are — warm, connected, and naturally yourselves — surrounded by the most beautiful landscapes in the Algarve. From the wild cliffs of Sagres and the soft beaches of Lagos to the iconic arches of Praia da Marinha and the warm red tones of Praia da Falésia, I cover the entire coastline to find the perfect light and the perfect place for your family. No stiff poses, no forced smiles — just genuine moments that feel true.
Honest emotions, real connection, and images your family will treasure for years.
FAMILY BEACH PHOTOSHOOT IN THE ALGARVE
WHAT YOU’LL GET
A relaxed experience where your family can simply be themselves.
I guide you gently when needed, keeping the atmosphere light so kids feel free to play, explore, and have fun — and you can enjoy the moment without stress.
You’ll receive a beautifully curated online gallery delivered within 7–10 days, including a mix of group photos, individual portraits, natural interactions, and all the little details that tell your family’s story.
All images are delivered in high resolution, ready for printing or sharing.
You can also choose optional extras like fine-art prints, wooden keepsake boxes, or premium photo books.
WHERE WE SHOOT
The Algarve is perfect for family sessions — open beaches, dramatic cliffs, and beautiful golden light.
All locations are safe and spacious, so kids can move freely while you enjoy the moment.
Favourite family-friendly spots:
• Praia da Falésia — long beach, soft sand, perfect for movement
• Praia da Marinha — iconic cliffs and warm colours
• Sagres (Tonel / Beliche) — dramatic sunset light + wide open space
• Praia da Luz — easy access, gentle atmosphere
• Castelejo — wild cliffs for a more adventurous family vibe
🕰️ Timing?
I always adapt to your family’s rhythm, but for the best light, we usually shoot just after sunrise or before sunset

WHY CHOOSE ME FOR YOUR FAMILY PHOTOS
Kids don’t pose — they move, explore, laugh, get distracted, and start again.
That’s why I photograph families naturally, with patience and zero pressure.
• No stiff posing — I guide gently so you’re just being yourselves.
• Real moments — sand between toes, hugs, messy hair, laughter.
• Experience with children — I work with families every week, from toddlers to teenagers.
• Locations that work — wide beaches, calm water, easy access, plenty of space to explore.
• Zero stress — breaks, snacks, water… everything is normal and welcome.
• Images that age well — warm, natural, timeless tones.
You don’t need to perform or “look perfect”.
Just show up as a family — I’ll take care of the rest.

It was so much fun to have Giancarlo take our pictures. He made us feel at ease in no time, he joked with us and the kids and the result is evident in the photos! He suggested the location and with the right light he captured beautiful memories for the 4 of us!
I highly recommend it!
