Meeting Pedro and Diana was memorable in ways that stay with us long after the shutter closes. From the very beginning, their energy carried that quiet magic we so often feel when photographing an analog wedding Portugal story—an atmosphere where every gesture seems to breathe a little slower, a little deeper.

They drove from the north to Lisbon for the session, and before any photos were taken, we found ourselves sharing ramen and conversations. Between laughs and stories, what stood out most was their genuine admiration for our craft—a desire to co-create, to build something meaningful together, always with respect and trust at the center. And between them, there was a love with weight and maturity, the kind that feels lived-in and certain, the kind that knows it has found the right person.

Pedro, coming from the film industry, chose every detail of their preparation with intention. He picked the hotel where Mal Viver was filmed, a place that felt like stepping into a forgotten frame of Portuguese cinema. The light, the textures, the rooms aged by time—it all carried that nostalgic pulse that makes an 35mm wedding Portugal experience feel almost cinematic.

Back to the party…

From the very beginning, they chose analog. It wasn't an accessory—it was the essence. The entire day moved at the rhythm of film rolls: slower, deliberate, emotional. Even their seal session felt wrapped in the tenderness that only film can translate. Roll after roll, frame after frame, we watched their story unfold in tones that felt like the 80s breathing again.

And when everything came together—the grain, the color, the love—we found ourselves holding a final collection that exists only once, exactly as it was lived. A unique product of a unique day.

Thank you, Pedro and Diana. You were truly amazing. And in many ways, you reminded us why we fell in love with analog wedding Portugal narratives.
