30+ Years Behind the Camera
Hi, I’m Ami Siano — a commercial photographer based in Sintra, near Lisbon.
I’ve spent three decades photographing people for brands such as TUI, Dior, Credit Suisse, Swatch and many others. That commercial background means I understand how portraits need to work — not just look good, but communicate the right message.
My approach is collaborative and relaxed. I guide you through the session so you feel natural and confident in front of the camera. The result is authentic portraits that still feel polished and intentional.
Available for sessions in Sintra, Cascais, Lisbon and throughout Portugal.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear for a portrait session?
I recommend solid colours or subtle patterns that reflect your personal or brand style. Bring 2–3 options. I’ll give you specific guidance after our discovery call.
Where do sessions take place?
Most sessions happen on location in Sintra, Cascais or Lisbon. Natural light and interesting backgrounds usually create stronger, more personal results than a studio.
How long until I receive the photos?
Edited images are typically delivered within 7–10 days. Faster turnaround is possible if needed.
Do you offer corporate team headshots?
Yes. I regularly photograph teams and executive groups. Contact me for a tailored quote based on number of people and location.
Can the images be used commercially?
Yes. All images from the branding session come with commercial usage rights so you can use them on your website, LinkedIn, marketing materials and social media.
