      <image:title>MEET US - Who Are We?</image:title>
      <image:caption>We’d like to officially + personally introduce ourselves. The Lopes Photography is Savannah + Rui Lopes. Savannah is from sunny southern California, USA + Rui is from trendy Lisbon, Portugal. We fell for each other in Lisbon + from there on we couldn´t get enough of each other so, we decided to be together forever by getting married on April 7, 2018. Together we make things happen. That’s how we knew we wanted to create together. With Savannah´s creative + keen eye for detail (maybe slightly OCD) + Rui´s professionalism and quiet humour. W'e’re capturing YOUR memories + emotions! We want you to be able to relive those emotions. Our goal is to give you the best experience possible. But really, lets chat over a coffee, a glass of wine, or video call and tell us your ideas, tell us YOUR story! Much Love, Rui + Savannah xx</image:caption>

      <image:title>MEET US - Some Things We Love:</image:title>
      <image:caption>Savannah loves all things green, fashion, mid-century + desert decor, loves to paint, sing/play guitar in her free time, + is a complete weirdo who loves to play + joke around. Rui loves to be spontaneous + adventure around, loves running to free his mind, loves football online + playing with his bros, he’s always finding ways to be better + create in photography, he is the biggest fruit snob ever (the guy loves quality fruit!), he is also the most quietly funny person alive. Together, we love to travel together, drink specialty coffee, go on walks + hikes, go on spontaneous drives + adventures, + of course, feed off of each other’s creative ideas!</image:caption>

      <image:title>MEET US - 5. Reception + Details</image:title>
      <image:caption>The theme + style was Moroccan/Portuguese. Our love story started in Portugal when we were going on a trip to Morocco + then, we would end up living in Portugal. So, Moroccan/Portuguese just fit perfectly with our story + theme of the wedding. For dinner, we had Mexican food (a staple to Californians!) + for dessert, homemade European-style desserts. Instead of a generic bride + groom table, we wanted a lounge for people to sit down + hang out with us, + for us to be able to look out at everyone, + really take in the special day.</image:caption>

      <image:title>MEET US - 6. For Our First Dance</image:title>
      <image:caption>Savannah wanted to do something different. Our song is, “If I Ain’t Got You”, By: Alicia Keys + so, she decided to record an acoustic version of her singing it with a friend playing the guitar, + to surprise me (Rui). I literally thought that the DJ got the song wrong! I didn’t recognize it at first. During like a minute into it, I asked if it was her singing… well, SURPRISE! It was so professionally done + special to me.</image:caption>

      <image:title>INQUIRE - Savannah &amp; Rui were the first “vendors” that we booked; I hate to even refer to them as vendors because they were so much more!</image:title>
      <image:caption>We felt at ease with them from the very first phone call and had no doubt that they would play an intricate part of our special occasion. They went above and beyond to assist in various aspects of the planning process and offered guidance when we faced uncertainty in making decisions. We were especially opinionated about how we wanted the photography to be done and they absolutely nailed it. They utilized a mix of digital, analog, black-and-white and video to document our multiple events. They provided us with some “sneak peeks”, which have held us over until we are able to see the finished product. Their easy-going attitude was a breath of fresh air when things didn’t go according to plan and, honestly, it played a big part in keeping us both calm when tensions got high. We cannot recommend them enough and have already referred several of our friends to utilize them for their weddings and events. SEE WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING</image:caption>

      <image:caption>A VOGUE ARABIA PORTUGAL WEDDING AT PALÁCIO DE QUELUZ Hessah and Ali's celebration at Palácio de Queluz is one of the most architecturally considered weddings we have had the privilege of documenting as Portugal wedding photographers.

      <image:caption>A VOGUE AUSTRALIA WEDDING IN PORTUGAL AT GRÉMIO LITERÁRIO Grémio Literário sits in the heart of Lisbon, all marble staircases and azulejo detail, and gave Catherine and Theodore's wedding an editorial backdrop few venues in the city can match. The day was later published in Vogue Australia Weddings, a reflection of the quality our Portugal wedding photographers bring to every celebration we document. VIEW GALLERY</image:caption>
