New items in my special collection for ARTgilão, a company created to raise funds for the renovation of churches in Tavira, you can find it in the church of Santa Maria do Castelo. The collection is constanly growing, we started with just coasters, magnets and earrings then added new products like tote bags, rings, necklaces, key chains, photo frames, bracelets, and crosses!
This project has been "in making" for a long time. Ana and Mark first time reached out to me back in the beginning of 2020 to ask my prices for custom wedding favors. Unfortunately due to the Pandemic their wedding got canceled, or rather posponed :) Love always finds a way so finally in October 2021 they got to have their dreamy wedding in beautiful Spain and my creations were a part of their big day!
Five years have past since I left my job as a receptionist in Casa d'Alagoa, but it wasn't a goodbye.
Now I was invited to show my project "Portas Portuguesas" (Portuguese Doors) in one of the walls of this amazing, historical building. It always feels good to go back where you made so many memories!
If you are ever in Faro, feel free to pass by :)
Few months ago I was contacted to join new project promoting what Algarve has to offer. I made 100 swallow magnets with portuguese tiles motif for a box that will take you for sensory journey of Algarve. I am proud to be a part of Algarve Senses.
"A box that takes us to travel without leaving the place, visiting the Algarve through the senses, remembering or imagining moments lived there .
To provide this sensorial experience, we have gathered some typical products from this region, whose careful choice was based in specific criteria; quality, aesthetics, originality and environmental awareness."
I am so glad that I got to photograph lovely expecting parents Ana and Bruno, just in time before the second lockdown due to Pandemic. We were blessed with a sunny day and a beautiful sunset on this January day. We met in Praia de Faro for their photos as it is "their beach". I like when my couples choose for their photos a location that has some importance for them. I am so thankful to be there for them and capture this reall important moment in their life.

During my short Christmas visit to Poland I took some pictures of my beautiful sister Ania, pregnant with her second child. This time around she was expecting a daughter!
As she is already a mom of a 2 year old boy we could only take the pictures during his nap time ;)
You don't need a studio, or breathtaking landscape, for pregnancy photos. Your baby room will do the job:) I love taking pictures of women in this special time of their lives.

Magda and Maciek came to Algarve to spend their honeymoon. They were newly married and brought their wedding outfits with them to Portugal! So much dedication!
They have never been to Portugal before and contacted me to take pictures of them in some of my favourite locations in the coast of Algarve. I loved meeting them so much. In fact, we then met again in one of my handcraft fairs. What a lovely couple!
Take a look at some of the pictures we took during the afternoon we spent together :)
Azores were on my "to see" list ever since I heard about them.
For our first trip to this archipelago, we chose the main Island of Sao Miguel. It was our one year wedding anniversary trip for 5 wonderful days. We could see so many different places, hike to the breathtaking viewpoints, we kayaked in one of many lagoons, have seen tousands of hortensias and happy cows. We got to see the pineapples grow and tea collection and production.
I cant wait to go there again and see all of the remaing 8 islands of Azores.

Justyna's bachelorette weekend in the barn was the most "photogenic" bachelorette party I have ever seen! I got to be there as Justyna's maid of honor and a photographer for this amazing party with a photosession in lovely Zalipie, which up to this point I have not visited and it was for a long time on my to do list. It was fun, intense weekend, not an usual hen party but even better. We did crafts, make up, horseback riding, scarbooking, singing, drinking, eating and laughing a lot!
It was amazing. Just take a look!

During my summer visit to Poland my friend Asia asked me to take few pictures of her during her pregnancy. She also wanted some portraits with her husband, Arek, before their first child arrives.
We met in Sulejówek and went to a local park to capture this special time in their lives in a place where now they go for walks with their baby Igor :)

Laura and Pedro asked me to take pictures of them to celebrate their engagement. They needed good pictures to make their wedding invitations and to decorate their wedding reception.
I loved that idea so, of course, I was super excited to be a part of that project.
We took pictures in two locations: streets of Loulé, where they are both from, and a nearby Palace of Estoi where, I was shocked to learn, they have never been before!
I love both of the locations, take a look why:)
Pregnancy is such a special time. Fabiana knows that well, and being also a photgrapher, she made sure that her pregnancy is well captured on pictures :) For the photosession we chose a location that is a real nature's masterpiece in the surroundings of Aveiros beach, in Albufeira. I took the pictures during my favourite time of the day: sunset. The results are breathtaking! See for yourself!
This was a very special wedding! It was a wedding in 50's retro style, and all the guests followed the dress code. The wedding was an outdoor celebration of love, with a beautiful talk, based on the Bible, before the official ceremony began. The wedding was trilingual, as the groom was Portuguese, the bride Lithuanian, and most of their guests were English. It was simply beatiful! After they vowed to be forever one, I took them for a small photosession in the hotel and the nearby beach!
This wedding was special for me personally, as it was first wedding I went to after i got married myself, only 12 days before;) Also, my crafts where part of this wedding. I made azulejos coasters for them, that, together with soaps, made by bride's sister, were used as place cards, in the tables, and gifts for the guests. It was an amazing day!
