What to Expect from the Photography Session

This one-hour private photo shoot is designed to be relaxed and enjoyable, emphasizing natural light and genuine emotion. The photographer, Vika Emerson, brings over 15 years of experience, making her attuned to capturing authentic moments that reflect your personal story.

The session is tailored to your preferred mood and style, with guidance on outfits and timing—whether you want to catch the soft glow of early morning or the warm hues of sunset. The meeting point is typically under the arch at the commercial square, a central and picturesque spot that provides a stunning backdrop for photos.

By the end of the hour, you’ll have between 60 to 90 photos that are color-corrected and light-enhanced, with some images receiving deeper edits like object removal or skin retouching if you wish. Plus, Vika will capture 5 to 10 short video clips you can easily share with friends and family, adding a lively dimension to your memory.

The Locations and Atmosphere

While the session is flexible and personalized, the general ambiance takes advantage of Lisbon’s iconic narrow streets, golden sunlight, and Atlantic breeze. These elements create a luminous, timeless feel that’s visible in the images.

Vika’s love for Lisbon is contagious, and she often shares tips and hidden gems—like cozy cafes, sunset viewpoints, or secret alleys—that can be incorporated into your shoot if time permits.
