Trusted by travellers from around the world
“What a wonderful experience! From booking to communicating details, to meeting up for the shoot, to receiving our photos; Martim and Thiago were amazing. They were so easy to work with, flexible, kind, professional and talented! You absolutely need to book your photography session here.”
“I used MD Photography on my recent family vacation. We had our photos taken at Praia de Carcavelos and the experience was very relaxed and stress free, even with my 1 year old daughter. The photographer did a great job maintaining my daughter’s focus and the pictures came out stunning! Would highly recommend them and use them again for future trips to Lisbon!”
“Since I was setting up a proposal photoshoot in Portugal from Canada, I was weary about choosing the right photographer. However, Martim and Thiago were very trustworthy, helpful, easy to contact. They’ve captured a moment in our lives we will never forget!”
