And it happened !!! Last april the 11th, in an online cerimony conducted by the Federation of European Photographers, directly from Rome, I was awarded the Golden Camera for the EUROPEAN PHOTOGRAPHER OF THE YEAR 2021 in the Weddings category.
It is without a doubt the highlight of my adventure in photography and the proven proof that all the work and honesty are worthwhile. We just need to have our head and heart aligned in an attempt to always do better for our clients.
Thank you all for all your love and support!!!

(EN) "Wedding planner gets married!" could be the headlines of any Madeira Island newspaper. The wedding took place on the Gorch Fock, an amazing tall ship from the German Navy, and I was honored to be invited to photograph.
(PT) "A wedding planner casou!" Poderia ser a capa de qualquer jornal da Ilha da Madeira. O casamento aconteceu no Gorch Fock, um incrível veleiro da Marinha Alemã, e tive a honra de ser convidado para fotografar.

(EN) This saturday at a wedding in Palmela, in southern Portugal, when saying farewell to my clients I heard one of the sweetest praises one can get from the bride and groom: you were the only luxury in our wedding 😍.
Actually it’s bitter sweet because the sense of responsibility went through the roof 😬.
(PT) Este sábado num casamento em Palmela, no sul de Portugal, ao despedir-me dos noivos ouvi um dos elogios mais doces que se pode receber: tu foste o único luxo no nosso casamento 😍. Na verdade, a sensação foi agridoce porque o sentido de responsabilidade subiu às alturas 😬

(EN) Have you ever thought of traveling from the US to a little isolated island off the coast of Africa to propose to your girlfriend? That’s what Michael did! The only problem was that he was so nervous that he mixed up the ring boxes and left the real engagement ring at the hotel 😂.
(PT) Já pensou em viajar dos Estados Unidos até uma pequena ilha isolada próxima de África para pedir a sua namorada em casamento? Foi isso que o Michael fez! O problema foi que ele ficou tão nervoso que acabou confundindo as caixas dos anéis e deixou o verdadeiro anel de noivado no hotel 😂.

(PT) Lembro-me de dormir apenas 3h naquela noite porque vinha direto de outro casamento. Na verdade, tinha tudo para dar errado. Mas a energia na casa da @Vitoriaamaralgalvao era contagiosa e, apesar do calor escaldante naquele dia, a adrenalina manteve-me em pé até as 2:30 da manhã.
(EN) I remember only sleeping for 3h that night because I was coming from another wedding. It actually had every chance of going wrong. But the energy at @vitoriaamaralgalvao ‘s house was contagious and despite the scorching heat that day the adrenalin kept me going until 2:30 AM.
