Love, Sunsets, and Stunning Views: Engagement Photoshoot at Praia da Adraga


Located in the stunning coastal beauty of Sintra (Lisbon), Praia da Adraga is a truly unique location for any photoshoot. With its characteristic rock formations and the iconic archway carved into the stone at the entrance of the beach, this picturesque spot is a favorite for capturing special moments. What makes Praia da Adraga even more special is its easy access (not comum in another beaches at this area) - with car parking right by the beach, it's a convenient and scenic escape just 40 minutes from the center of Lisbon.

The beach is known for its breathtaking views, especially at sunset. As the sun dips below the horizon, it casts a warm golden light over the rocks and rugged coastline, creating a magical atmosphere perfect for a pre-wedding photoshoot. The light filtering through the cliffs and reflecting off the water adds a surreal quality to the images, and that’s exactly what Patricia and Bruno were able to capture for their engagement session.

This beautiful couple shared with me their story, and it’s clear to see how much love and connection they have. Bruno works in the marketing field, while Patricia is a flight attendant for TAP. One of the most touching moments was when they showed me the video of Bruno’s proposal. In it, Patricia is visibly moved, and it’s impossible not to be touched by their love and the sincerity of that moment. You could see the deep bond they share, and it was so special to witness their excitement for the next chapter in their lives together.

As the sun set on Praia da Adraga, the location really provides the perfect backdrop for a magical photoshoot. The combination of the stunning landscape, the warm sunlight, and the love between Patricia and Bruno made for an unforgettable experience. Praia da Adraga continues to be one of the best choices for a photoshoot in the Sintra area, offering not only natural beauty but also a sense of mystique that is characteristic of this enchanting part of Portugal.

Whether you’re looking for a spot close to Lisbon or a place that captures the enchanting charm of Sintra, Praia da Adraga is always a wonderful choice for capturing moments of love before your big day.
