Hi, I am Inna
Planning a wedding or elopement in Lisbon?
I’m an English-speaking wedding photographer. My work focuses on elegant and natural images with real laughter, beautiful light and moments that matter. Frequently covering wedding ceremonies across Lisbon, Sintra, Cascais and nearby. Guiding when needed and stepping back during the moments you’ll remember forever.
Hundreds of couples around the world have trusted me with their day. Explore full wedding galleries and share what you're planning. I’d love to photograph your day in Portugal.
Life is fun, let’s create beautiful experiences together! Send me a message.
You enjoy your day. I’ll do the rest.









Portfolio
Below is a hand-picked portfolio of weddings and elopements I have photographed. Each gallery tells a complete story: from getting ready through the ceremony and reception to the grand finale fireworks.
You’ll find a mix of classic and editorial weddings, intimate elopements and multi-day celebrations. The galleries show how I capture genuine laughter, natural portraits, small details and the atmosphere that makes every celebration unique.
Whether you’re planning a city ceremony in Lisbon, a palace celebration or a relaxed gathering by the ocean, these stories will give you a clear sense of my style and approach.
Venues & Locations I know & love
On a regular basis I cover weddings at the most popular venues in Lisbon and other parts of Portugal, including:
Lisbon City & Riverfront
Alfama, Baixa and Chiado are among the best locations for chic city weddings with easy logistics, rooftops, river views and quick portrait stops
Sintra Palaces & Gardens
Sintra’s palaces and gardens create a romantic, fairy-tale atmosphere with terraces, arches and forests
Cascais & Estoril Seaside
Oceanfront villas and long beach paths around Cascais and Estoril provide soft light and picturesque sunsets ideal for coastal portraits between ceremony and dinner
Blue Coast & Countryside
Mafra, Azeitão, Arrábida and Comporta offer beautiful architecture, vineyards and dunes for relaxed outdoor dinners and weekend-long celebrations
If your location isn’t listed here, that is absolutely fine! I am more than happy to travel anywhere in Portugal (and even further) to be a part of your wedding day.

We couldn’t be happier with the photos from our wedding, thanks to Inna! She was an absolute joy to work with: extremely cooperative, creative and always full of great ideas for different shots. Her eye for capturing special moments is truly exceptional. Inna didn’t just take photos; she beautifully told the story of our day through her lens.

Frequently Asked Questions for a wedding photographer
-
I am honoured you are considering me to photograph your wedding day.
Please send me an enquiry via the contact form below. I am taking photos of only a limited number of weddings per year, my dates fill up quickly.
To secure your date, I require a 45% non-refundable booking fee and I will send you a contract to sign so you know what to expect from me. -
A second photographer is recommended if you want both partners’ getting-ready moments covered at the same time, if your wedding has a large number of guests or if parts of the day happen in different locations. Having two perspectives also means more candid angles and more variety in your final gallery.
I’ll be happy to advise based on your plan.
-
That’s completely normal! Would you believe that every second couple I’ve captured has told me they feel awkward in front of the camera?
That’s why I like to keep things relaxed and playful! As you enjoy your special day, I promise to make you feel as comfortable as possible.
I will offer direction when needed, but most of a wedding day is about telling the story of your love, so I’ll be a calm and unobtrusive presence as the both of you cherish and enjoy your day. -
Depending on your chosen wedding coverage and package, you will receive approximately 600+ carefully edited photos.
For engagement shoots, you will receive approximately 100 photos. -
A couple of days after your wedding, you’ll receive 10 photos to give you a taste of what’s to expect in a full result and get you excited.
The processing time for the rest wedding photos is a maximum of 6 weeks.
I spend an average of 22+ hours editing and colour-correcting all of your final photos. I want to make sure every single one is pristine before I send them out to you. This is why delivery takes a little time.
If you’d like your images sooner, you can order a priority upgrade.
-
The pictures will be made available to you in an online gallery with a password. You can share this gallery with your guests via the link.
-
Unfortunately, no. I believe that a huge piece of the storytelling I work to create is done in post-processing! Without this step, your photos are incomplete art pieces. Raw or unedited images do not represent the work of a photographer. I only deliver edited photos in JPEG format in my typical colour style. I do my best to make sure I select the best photos for your memories.
-
Yes! It is a great opportunity that helps you get used to the camera. Upon request, I will include the pre-wedding or engagement session in your wedding package. Just let me know your wishes and I’ll be happy to send you a customised offer.
-
Yes. I receive a lot of enquiries about my albums. I offer one of the most beautiful luxury wedding albums on the market.
I hold the belief that a wedding album is a timeless keepsake, destined to be cherished and passed down through generations within your family. The tactile experience of holding and feeling your album adds a dimension to the images that you simply cannot experience with digital copies. You are welcome to order a wedding album from me at any time.
-
English, Russian, German and basic Spanish.
-
Yes! No matter how you define or identify your relationship, it is always a privilege for me to be a part of your wedding day as your wedding photographer.
-
Potentially yes. I do not post all my clients. As photography is a visual product, people can only get an idea of what I offer if I share my work on my webpage. If you want exclusive picture rights and don’t want them to be featured on my webpage or social media, you can purchase an extra license for them.
Let’s be honest, you want to book my photography services because other client couples agreed to share the results of my work.
-
No. Under copyright law, all images remain the property of Inna Zaytseva Photography. As a customer, you get the right of use and you can freely use the images for your own social media channels, website and printing materials like photo albums for personal use. However, these images cannot be used for commercial purposes without written permission from the photographer.
-
Yes. I’m based in Lisbon and available to travel for celebrations in Sintra, Cascais, Estoril, Mafra, Azeitão, Arrábida, Comporta and other regions of Portugal.
-
Absolutely. If you’re considering a destination wedding, drop me a line and we can quickly chat to finalize the finer details. I’m a travel lover, so I am always very grateful for all the opportunities that have been enabling me to explore other parts of the world. I have a working permit as a photographer in Europe and I have already accompanied a number of weddings in Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, France, Morocco, Thailand and other countries. I will take care of all the arrangements leading up to your wedding, easing your stress and keeping costs as low as possible. Share your plans with me, and I will tailor an individual offer to suit your needs.
-
If you already have a date or a specific venue in mind, it’s best to reach out as early as possible to secure availability.
