Wedding
Photographer in Lisbon, Cascais, Sintra

Natural. Honest. Timeless.
You enjoy your day – I'll make sure it lives on in your photos.

Wedding Photographer

On your special day, my goal isn't just to take beautiful photos, but to capture the full atmosphere of your wedding – the laughter, the tears, the looks, the hugs – everything that makes your day truly yours.

Real emotions, honest moments, and a touch of magic from each location – whether it's the sunny beaches of Algarve, a quiet village in England, a lake in Italy, or the mountains of Switzerland. I'll go wherever you are, so you can simply enjoy the moment without thinking about the camera.

About me Dimas Frolov

Dimas Frolov Profile photo (small)

Hey, I'm Dimas, a photographer with a calm approach and a focus on honesty over perfection. I'm working with couples who want their wedding day to be captured in a natural, emotional, and meaningful way.

Since 2007, I've been photographing people across Asia and Europe. These days, I've been based in Lisbon, documenting weddings for couples from all walks of life.

My sessions are calm and unobtrusive. No forced poses or staged moments – just your real emotions, your connection, and the atmosphere of the day. What matters to me is capturing the atmosphere, the energy between you, and the real moments that make your day unforgettable.

Anyone can take a beautiful shot on a wedding day – even a guest with just a phone might capture a stunning moment. But a professional photographer is someone who can deliver consistent quality throughout the entire event. I'm here to quickly adapt to changing conditions, adjust to every situation, and create unique images in moments where an amateur might already give up. I guarantee high-quality results, backed by the many weddings I've captured, which you can see for yourself.

    Dimas, good day! There are no words to describe our joy from what we saw! It's really cool! You are smart and professional – definitely! We have been looking at these photos a hundred times already:) It's very nice to receive a finished product, upload it to an electronic photo frame, print it in a paper album, and that's it :) God bless you with health and a sea of clients! P.S. We will recommend YOU to everyone :)))))

    Dimas conveys the atmosphere, the emotions and juiciness of color. Everyone who is looking for a professional photographer can address him with confidence in the result. We already ordered his services twice and never regretted it. Thanks for the fabulous photos, they continue to please us, leaving the best in memory.

    We had the pleasure of hiring Dimas as our exceptional wedding photographer who truly exceeded all expectations. His professionalism was evident from the moment we first met, and he demonstrated an incredible attention to detail throughout the entire process. Not only did he capture every moment we could have wished for, but he also managed to immortalize the emotions and essence of our special day beautifully. His expertise behind the lens ensured that every shot was perfect, and his ability to blend into the background allowed for natural, candid moments to be captured effortlessly. I cannot recommend Dimas highly enough for anyone looking for a talented and reliable photographer to document their most precious memories.

    I met Dimas 2 years ago for a bikini shoot. And I was impressed by his work. As a professional photographer myself I am very difficult. We decided to get married on February next year, no doubt that Dimas would be our photographer! The results are just perfect! you are a master of the light, the editing is perfect on every picture! we definitely love them <3 thank you Dimas!!!

    Thank you, Dimas, for the wonderful photos! It's very hard to hold back from posting all the photos on social media right away because they turned out exactly as I dreamed 😍. If anyone wants the photoshoot of their dreams, make sure to go to Dimas 🤗. He knows beautiful locations, the best time to visit them, successful angles, and poses! Dimas has everything honed to the second and millimeter, so as not to waste precious time searching for good photo spots and not to fry in the sun! Our wedding shoot for 5 hours in the heat was not stressful at all – that's what a true professional means 👌. And most importantly, he is a very pleasant person to communicate with. Dimas joked throughout the wedding ceremony, creating a relaxed and fun festive atmosphere 🎉. Even my mom was surprised that my husband was smiling in the photos 😅. And the pleasant bonus was that I received the ceremony photos 2 weeks after the shoot! Just 2 WEEKS 😳! I also really liked that Dimas has a website where he uploaded our photos, and you can send a link with a password to relatives for viewing 😊. In short, everyone should go to Dimas – you won't regret it 👍. And if you live nearby, it would be a shame not to have a photoshoot with him 🙉.

    We cannot thank Dimas enough for his amazing work on our wedding day on 14th September 2019. He contacted us a couple of days beforehand to confirm the booking, which was settling as it's always a bit nerve wracking booking someone in another country! On the day he arrived in plenty of time and spent time with us getting ready before the ceremony! He was very personal and quickly learnt who was who to allow organising the family for photographs that bit easier! At no point did we feel uncomfortable (as neither of us really like having our photo taken) he made us feel at ease and we both thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience! He even went above and beyond and organised our videographer (as they didn't speak English and couldn't really communicate with us) which we are thankful for! He also stayed a little later to ensure we had photos cutting our cake and outside at night. We honestly cannot recommend Dimas enough, an outstanding photographer and we are over the moon with our photographs! Just have the very difficult decision as to which ones to frame! Thank you so much Dimas! x

    Words cannot describe how happy we are to receive our incredible wedding and event photos by Dimas. They are absolute perfection and safe to say the result is better than we could have ever imagined. Hiring Dimas was actually the best decision we made for our wedding. He has given us the perfect gift to last a lifetime. He captured every moment big and small. All the emotions he captured so perfectly. He's perfectly opinionated to the point that his suggestions saved one of our pre wedding events.trust and listen to his suggestions because he will get you the best possible result. It rained on our wedding day and Dimas suggested we shoot around the island another day. It was the best thing. We got those perfect beach/temple and tropical shots we came for. Without Dimas's expertise and advice, we wouldn't have many photos we like at all due to the weather etc. Now the hardest decision is which ones to pick because we love them ALL. From the bottom of our hearts Dimas thank you for all your passion, creativity and hard work.you are just the best there is!!!!!!!!!!! We will absolutely Continue to hire you on our trips just for those perfect family/anniversary/holiday shots (any excuse)

    I want to say a huge thank you to Dimas for the colossal work done👏🏻 The most important day in our life went 100,000 times better than we could have imagined, and all thanks to a professional, namely Dimas🤗 The emotions when viewing the photos are simply impossible to convey (a smile 😊 does not leave the face. goosebumps run all over the body). All the photos are bright, colorful, and it's impossible to choose the ones you like the most because all the photos are insanely cool😍 Dimas, you are a professional in your field!!!! It is pleasant to work with you, and the result of your work will not leave anyone indifferent, and that's very cool 😁 thank you very much🙏

    First of all, both of us really enjoyed working with Dimas and Artem. Everything went so smoothly and easily with them. For people not used to the camera and posing, it was just perfect. Secondly, I really liked the photos because they were bright and light, white-blue, clear, just the way I like it. Natural. I get very upset when photographers start playing with filters, darkening or applying some cinematic shades, etc. And he did everything naturally and easily, thank you! Thirdly, I like myself in these photos, and this is the most important point for any girl! Thank you! There are so many cool photos that I had to spam my relatives because I couldn't choose just a couple))) I liked that Dimas takes into account the client's requirements and checks, showing what works, what is desired or not. So it's very cool for everyone to understand in advance what they want to see in the photo (palms, sea, tropics, a flying dress) and warn – and then the result will be amazing.

Most common questions about photo shoots

I'm based in Lisbon, Portugal, but I travel for shoots – around Lisbon (Sintra, Cascais, Setúbal) and to other cities across Portugal and even abroad in Europe.
During the wedding, all the attention is on the couple, so most of the time I work in a reportage style without drawing focus to myself. When there's an opportunity and time for posed shots, we take them without interrupting the flow of the day.
I recommend booking 6 to 12 months ahead. For popular dates, earlier.
Coverage starts from 4 hours and most often runs 6 to 12 hours, capturing the preparations, ceremony, couple session, and reception. I count in hours rather than fixed packages, so a short wedding and a full day are priced the same way.
Yes, if you allow me to publish your photos in my portfolio and on my social media. The discount starts from 20% and is discussed individually.
50+ fully edited photos per hour of coverage, with no limit on delivery. The total depends on the length of the day and how eventful it is.
You'll receive the full set within 4 weeks after the wedding. A few preview photos will be sent within a few days.
After editing, you'll receive an online gallery where you can view your photos on any device, download them in high resolution, and easily share them with friends and family.
Natural, lively color. I clean small skin issues, soften tired eyes, and can remove background distractions or lightly adjust features. Edits stay light so the photo feels real.
I'll help you create a shooting plan and give advice on timing and locations. I also recommend preparing a list of important moments or people you want to make sure are captured.
Nikon Z6 III with a Nikon Z6 II as backup/second body. Both write to two cards simultaneously. Files go to a backed-up drive and then to the cloud during editing. Mostly natural light; flash if needed. Lenses: 35, 50, 85mm primes; 15–30, 70–200 zooms; 90mm macro.
We can try to move the date. If we do, the booking service is applied to the new date. If the shoot is called off, the booking service is not returned: it paid for holding your date, and that was done the moment I reserved it.

Wedding Shoot in Lisbon and Across Europe Relaxed moments, real photos

Are you getting married in Lisbon? Or maybe somewhere else, like a beach in Cascais, a vineyard in Sintra, or a city in another country? No matter where your wedding is, you want real, heartfelt pictures that look and feel like your day.

I'm Dimas, a wedding photographer based in Lisbon. I photograph weddings all across Portugal and Europe, from small elopements to full-day celebrations with 200 guests. My style is documentary with a calm presence. I guide when needed, but most of the time I stay in the background, capturing the genuine energy, emotions, and details of your day as they naturally unfold.

I use natural light, take pictures in a relaxed way, and keep things simple. There are no stiff postures, too much retouching, or artificial moments. Just telling the truth via pictures that last.

What to expect

Most couples hire me for the whole day, from getting dressed to the party. Some people want shorter coverage, such as only a few hours for a modest wedding. I'm open to change. Your images should tell your story, not someone else's vision of it.

Here's what I offer:

  • Wedding photography in Lisbon and Portugal
  • Destination weddings anywhere in Europe
  • Elopements, micro weddings, and vow renewals
  • Guidance throughout the day (but never forced posing)
  • 50+ retouched photos per hour, no limit on delivery
  • Turnaround up to 4 weeks
  • Private online gallery and full rights to your photos
  • Optional albums, extra sessions (engagement, after-wedding)

Real experience, real trust

Over the years, I've taken pictures at scores of weddings, from fancy places to ceremonies on cliffs, barefoot beach elopements, and even city hall nuptials in the rain. And every couple says the same thing: they forgot the camera was there and felt at ease. That's what we want to happen. It's the relationship between you two that matters most, and that's what I capture.

If you want natural wedding photos in Lisbon or elsewhere, look through my gallery, read some evaluations from past clients, or read full wedding stories. When you're ready, get in touch and I'll email you all the information, such as prices and times when you may meet.

No need to worry. No sales pressure. Just pictures that make you feel something.
