Q: How can couples find reviews of Coimbra wedding photographers?
A: We call them Client Letters. At the WPJA, we decided more than 20 years ago to avoid incorporating those third-person testimonials and endorsements that are found all too often in advertisements.

Q: Can a wedding photojournalist create artistic portraits on my Coimbra wedding day?
A: While wedding photojournalists strive to capture candid moments on the wedding day, our photographers also are skilled artists who can compose powerful portraits. If you have a specific vision of what types of images you want from your wedding day, look at the top-ranked Coimbra wedding photographers who have earned Artistic Guild awards for portrait and detail images.
