What to Expect at Your Photoshoot in Portugal (First-Timer Guide)
Before the Shoot
Your photographer will message you to confirm the date, discuss your vision, suggest the best route between spots, and share outfit recommendations.
The day before, check the weather forecast together. If rain is expected, you can reschedule for free or move to a covered location.
During the Shoot
Meeting Up Your photographer meets you at the agreed spot. They'll chat for a few minutes and explain the plan.
The First 10 Minutes You'll feel a bit awkward — that's totally normal. Your photographer starts with easy poses: walking, looking at the view, laughing. By minute 10, you'll forget the camera.
