Wedding photography Lisbon, PT Portugal and beyond

Alex Tome

My name is Alexandre, you can call me Alex. Since 2011, almost 300 couples across the globe. My goal is to realize an authentic photo reportage, tell a story: yours, on this special day.

How I work

Close and quiet: no posing, no long lists of group shots, no interrupting a moment to rebuild it. What comes back is the day as it actually felt.

I started photography in 2006 with fashion and concert work, assisting François Rousseau, Gérard Schachmes and Roberto Battistini, and covering Céline Dion’s world tour “Taking Chances”. That is what I bring to a wedding today: a reportage with a marked aestheticism — documentary, with a fashion touch.

On film

I started out with analog photography, and I have kept shooting both film and digital ever since. Analog brings a timelessness that digital does not: it makes images with a personality of their own, far from the clean, sharp ones of a digital camera.

I still cherish my old Mamiya RZ 67 and my Hasselblad 503 CX, and I would be delighted to shoot with them on your wedding day.

Why I do this

Alex Tome

I am truly passionate about love stories. There is no picture more beautiful than one of someone in love — it is, besides, one of the reasons why I love my job.

Honesty, creativity, quality, support and integrity.

France · Greece · Italy · Morocco · Portugal · Switzerland

Lisbon is home, and the folio keeps growing somewhere else. Those are the countries already photographed, not a wish list — for anywhere that is not on it, ask.
