Photographer in Lisbon, Cascais, Sintra
I'm taking pictures of women, the way they are loved
This page is dedicated to women – real, alive, beautiful.
I'm Dimas, a photographer who captures women's portraits in Lisbon with care and respect. Here, there's no pressure to be "perfect" – only a desire to see your true self.
Every shoot is a space to relax, be yourself, and feel your own beauty. Softness, grace, and inner light – it's already within you. My job is to help you see it.

About me Dimas Frolov

Hi, I'm Dimas, a portrait photographer who cares about capturing women's beauty and personality through calm, honest portrait sessions. I work with women who want to see themselves as confident, natural, and truly themselves. I have over 19 years of experience photographing women's portraits in different countries.
The shoot is soft and unhurried. Quiet moments, gentle movement, natural light – all of it helps you feel confident and free. I'll guide you when needed, but without pressure. Everything flows naturally and at a pace that feels right for you.
In the end, you'll have emotional, authentic portraits that carry more than just your appearance – they hold a mood, a feeling you'll want to remember.

Most common questions about photo shoots
For a regular photoshoot that isn't tied to a specific date, it's best to book about a month ahead.
It's different when you need that exact date: an anniversary, a birthday, a wedding. Or when you're only in town for a few days. Then plan ahead, even a year in advance. That's better than regretting it later and looking for another photographer. The same goes for dates everyone wants, like Valentine's Day and the New Year holidays.
And sometimes I'm free in the next few days or even today. Then I can come, I just need time to get to the location. The quickest way to find out if I'm free is to message me on WhatsApp.
You decide, and I suggest options and help you pick what fits your ideas. Lisbon is huge. There are parks and gardens, and the Atlantic shore has beaches and amazing cliffs. The historic centre has narrow streets and a real Portuguese vibe. It's also possible to shoot in castles and palaces. Shooting inside palaces and castles is paid separately; when we plan the shoot, I'll tell you where, how and how much. You don't need to name exact places, just give me an idea of what's in your mind, and I'll offer you some options.
The meeting point is something we choose together when we plan the shoot. Usually it's the first location or a spot next to it that's easy to reach by taxi or public transport. The day before, I'll send you the exact point on the map.
In Lisbon center – sunrise, almost no tourists. Beaches or parks are more flexible; you can shoot almost any time there.
A few helpful articles in my blog:
If it rains on the day of the shoot, we'll move it to another free day, with no extra fees.
But I'd warn you not to rely on weather forecasts, especially more than a few days ahead. I've been comparing different forecasts and apps for years, and none of them is accurate enough to trust. We're right by the ocean, and it brings in and changes the weather very quickly, which is why forecasts get it wrong. It's best to look at the actual weather right before the shoot.
I offer several packages. One hour usually covers most sessions. For more outfits or wider locations, 1.5 hours is better. Two hours is the most relaxed option with lots of advantages.
Detailed packages you can see here: Rates for photography services.
The photos are yours for personal use: print them, post them on social media, give them to family. They can't be sold or used in advertising. If you need that, just write to me and we'll sort it out. The copyright stays with me.
And for private sessions there's a special offer: if you're happy for me to share your photos on my website and social media, you get up to 27% off.
What a Women's Portrait Session in Lisbon Feels Like Confidence, Experience, Results
A portrait session is an experience every woman should try at least once. I often hear, "I don't know how to pose" or "I never look good in photos." But when I ask if they've ever worked with a professional photographer, the answer is usually "no." People judge themselves based on random snapshots, taken without good light, mood, or understanding of what suits them.
This is where a professional makes the difference – by creating the conditions where you open up. Choosing the right location, light, angle, and mood. Giving direction when needed and giving space when it's not. Lisbon, with its light, colors, and textures, makes inspiration come naturally.
This is my favorite kind of work. A woman is the most beautiful creation of nature. I don't look for perfection – I focus on the strengths of each woman. With experience and sensitivity, I know how to highlight what works and gently hide what might bother you. In both shooting and retouching, I keep a balance: every photo should be aesthetic and harmonious, but also alive and honest.
I create images that don't change you – they reveal you. That help you see yourself with softness and strength. Feminine. Confident. Real. And keep that feeling in the photo.
