The Experience

I didn’t expect to feel nervous about having my photo taken, but there I was, fidgeting with my jacket in one of those sunlit alleys near Alfama. Renan — the photographer — just grinned and said, “Don’t worry, we’ll just walk and chat.” It was oddly comforting. The city felt alive that morning: laundry flapping overhead, someone arguing (gently) over coffee prices in Portuguese, the tram screeching past. He’d pause sometimes to show me a spot where the light hit the tiles just right. I still remember the smell of bread from that tiny bakery on the corner.

We wandered through places I probably wouldn’t have found alone — not just the big squares, but little corners where old men played cards or kids chased pigeons. Renan would give these gentle nudges: “Look that way,” or “Just keep talking.” It never felt forced. At one point he caught me mid-laugh after I nearly tripped on those slippery cobblestones (Lisbon’s sidewalks are no joke). He said that’s when people look most like themselves. The photoshoot lasted about an hour but honestly felt more like hanging out with a friend who happens to know every shortcut in Lisbon.

Afterwards, we sat for a quick espresso while he explained how he edits — nothing overdone, just enough so the photos feel true to how it all looked and felt. He promised 40 images within three days (and delivered). There’s this one shot by a blue-tiled doorway that makes me grin every time I see it. If you’re thinking about booking a Lisbon cinematic photoshoot, don’t stress about posing or being photogenic. Just show up as you are — the city sort of does half the work for you anyway.
