Kyle and Lisa’s Wedding in the Portugese Country Side.

Portugal the Wedding

 

 

I spent three weeks in Portugal following Kyle and Lisa, documenting their wedding and travels through this gorgeous country. We spent time in Lisbon and Lagos, before making our way to the beautifully eclectic Herdade da Matinha.

A morning at Herdade da Matinha

I spent a relaxed, easygoing, morning with Kyle and Lisa. Because of their small wedding size, they were able to focus on the little moments, and I had ample opportunity to capture the details.

Golden hour shoots are my favortie time with couples. It’s a moment away from all the madness of a wedding to slow down and watch the sunset together.
