Couple photoshoot with a dog in Alfama and by the river

An April session under a soft grey sky, with a small dog along for the whole walk, from Alfama down to the river.

The route

Miradouro das Portas do Sol

The rooftops under a white sky.

Tile benches

Sitting with the dog at Santa Luzia.

Red doors and the pergola

The classic Alfama corners.

Baixa

A pink building, the trams and Rua Augusta.

The river

Cais das Colunas, then the Tagus with the 25 de Abril Bridge.

Light and timing

Overcast days are underrated for photos: the light is even, faces are soft, and the colours of the tiles and trams stay gentle.
