Arte Magna

Not only are they super talented and professional, but they are absolutely lovely people at heart. We feel so lucky that they were able to capture and be a part of our big day. We selected them as vendors and felt we left as friends!! We felt at ease the whole time and had a TON of fun while at it (that's saying something because we are NOT picture people!!) Highly recommend booking them!! The photos speak for themselves, but the experience is even better! Thank you, Teresa and Dado!

They are lovely people, and they were always available to help us with the wedding planning and also on the day of the wedding. They are kind and fun and, at the same time, very professional. We are delighted to have worked with them. Our wedding photos are absolutely spectacular! We couldn´t have wished for anything else; they truly show every single detail of the day and the happiness we experienced on the best day of our lives.

Our wedding planner sourced Arte Magna as photographers for our wedding, and it was an absolute pleasure to work with Teresa and Dado. Choosing a photographer for your wedding can be very scary, but from the moment we saw Arte Magna's website, we knew we wanted to work with them. In addition to their amazing website and portfolio, they are very lovely, nice, and accommodating in person. We wanted someone to capture organic, candid photos of our wedding day, and that’s exactly what we got. We shared our insecurities and concerns ahead of time, like photos that don't feel like us, or too few photos with friends and family. They heard us and made sure to prioritize exactly what we wanted. We felt totally comfortable every step of the way, and the photos turned out gorgeous. They provided great art direction, guiding us on what to do, where to be, and how to get the perfect poses. They even invited our friend, who is an amateur photographer, to join in taking some photos alongside them. Leading up to the wedding, they were very organized and attentive. They sent us a little welcome kit in advance, which was such a nice touch! We received a questionnaire as well, to make sure they understood what we wanted, what we did not want, and any special family information. Teresa even gave my wife some of her sunscreen on the wedding day so that she wouldn't get sunburned in her dress! If you are thinking of hiring Arte Magna, don't hesitate! 

We booked them when we were still living outside of Portugal, and they made time to chat with us virtually, as well as, meet up when we were visiting over the busy Christmas season. Their love for making beautiful pictures and passion shines through in the delivery and their communication. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you once again, and we hope to be able to make more memories through your lens again someday!
