Wedding at Quinta do Pe da Serra | Margarida and João

Margarida and João had their wedding at Quinta do Pe da Serra, a historic venue with a gorgeous view over the sea close to Sintra and Lisbon. They got married in difficult times for all of us, but more on that later.

First, here are some of my favorite photos from Margarida and João’s wedding!

Margarida and João

I was contacted by Margarida and João in mid-2020. We had just gone through the first wave of the pandemic and the venues were starting to accept bookings again. Back then we had stayed at home for 3 months. All I wanted to do was to be outside, be with other people and use my camera.

I met M&J before the wedding, on the pretext of doing a photo shoot in Belém, Lisbon. It felt so good to be outside and speak to people again. I loved getting to know them and as a result, we all had a great time. You can see the photo-shoot here.

The wedding day was a couple of weeks later. It was a rainy and cold Autumn day, everyone had to be inside and that made their wedding even more intimate!

Quinta do Pe da Serra

I’ve always had a soft spot for venues with history and Quinta do Pe da Serra is no exception. It has belonged to same same family for 3 centuries, having produced wine for most of its history. I knew the venue from its wine background so I was surprised when I saw the photos of a wedding at Quinta do Pe da Serra. Not long after it would be my time to photograph there and I’m very glad it did, because the venue is beautiful and it has an incredible view over the sea.

Fortunately the rain cleared in the late afternoon, perfect for the guests to enjoy being outside without having to wear a mask. And the best part (to me) was the amazing light at sunset!

It’s now 2024 and I feel like their wedding happened a very long time ago. On the other hand I feel their photos are still so fresh and recent. But then again, that’s exactly my goal! I have chosen a markedly documentary style for my photography so that it doesn’t follow trends. I believe it is a style that shows the reality of the wedding, without putting too much emphasis on details or editorial photos of the couple.

If you’re planning on having your wedding at Quinta do Pe da Serra and you liked my style of photography, please get in touch!
