As an Algarve wedding photographer, I’m always looking for ways to add a pop of iconic into a couple’s gallery.
These group shots are exactly that ✨
I saw the steps before I saw anything else, and how the tree could work into the shot too. I knew straight away that M would look editorial against that backdrop, in colour and in black and white both. Sunglasses always help with that, there’s something about them that instantly tips a portrait from sweet into editorial.
With the bridesmaids and groomsmen, I love mixing up heights, working in umbrellas where they make sense, and still leaving room for the natural moments to happen on their own. That’s the balance I’m always chasing, styled enough to feel iconic, loose enough to still feel like them.
If you’re picturing a shot like this in your own gallery, that’s exactly the conversation I want to have 🫶🏻
