Strawberry fields forever…
A month or two ago my instagram feed was full of photos of oranges in various stages of being juiced… it was an obsession of sorts, when the weather is crap I crave freshly squeezed juice. But recently, with the

Burano, Italy
So in keeping with the Venice photos from last week, this is Burano… one of the smaller islands on the outskirts of this “floating city”. It´s a half-hour boat-ride away from the city centre and much less crowded with tourists,

Azulejos
A long-time obsession of mine, photographing the amazing tiles in Portugal, has had new life breathed into it by having a camera on my phone. Documenting these everyday things that pass you by becomes so much easier when you have
Tiber River, Rome

Rome in the winter.
Rome was, of course, amazing… always is. We had a wonderful few days, just about walked ourselves to death and ate enough cheese to last a life-time… and of course took loads of photos. The first time I visited Rome

Polaroiding in Lisbon
Last weekend we spent a photographic afternoon in Lisbon with Rui and Cristiana from Love is my Favorite Color. Rui (like most guys I know) is all about the gadgets, and since he’s a photographer, he’s all about the photo

Instagramming
So I’m probably one of the last people in the whole world to get into Instagram, but here I am, finally. I resisted getting an iPhone for ages because I didn’t want to become one of “those” people… you know,

Rome!
We’re off to Rome soon for a week or so and I am super excited, I love this city and can’t wait to visit her again. This trip is like the perfect combination of all the things I love most
Castelo de Amourol
We went on a scouting mission a while ago, look for nice locations for photo shoots and found the Castelo de Amourol, which is an ancient castle built on an island in the Tejo (Tagus) river. Parts of the castle

Porto do Barril
Just a few photos from a sunset walk we did many months ago, back in the summer… they’ve been waiting patiently for me to have some time to edit and blog them. The coastline between Ericeira and Santa Cruz is

Alentejo - Portugal's best kept secret.
Reblogged from Piteira Photography: It’s no secret that we love the Alentejo… the wide open spaces, the rolling hills and lone trees on the horizon… and the light, I could go on and on about the light, but suffice to
