Why choose Family session in Lisbon?
Lisbon faces south-west onto the Tagus, which makes the miradouros a morning problem and the river an evening one. That is what decides how a Family session session is planned here: the photographer you work with lives in Lisbon and shoots across Greater Lisbon all year, so they are not seeing the place for the first time alongside you. That prior knowledge is the difference between a session that keeps to its schedule and one spent looking for a frame.
The hour matters more than the location. For Miradouro da Senhora do Monte, the window to aim for is the first hour after sunrise. The session runs 30 min and is built around that window rather than around your diary — it is the one variable that genuinely changes the photographs, and it costs nothing.
