"You know that old saying, 'to remember is to live again'? It’s so true! But even better than that is being able to feel and be moved all over again by all the happiness and love radiating from the most special moment of our lives. Lídia simply has a gift; her love for photography is in her eyes, capturing our soul and heart in a unique way. Our wedding was beautifully immortalized with such grace and sensitivity through her lens. Thank you for allowing us to remember, live, and feel the same emotion every time we look at a photo! An exceptional person, a spectacular professional, and she has a wonderful team! We are in love with your work and are so grateful you came into our lives!"

"Lídia Fernandes, you are unique! You are so special to my entire family. I love you and your work so much that when I think about the future birthday parties of my children, I can only think about you being there! When I see my 'Before I Do' and wedding photos, I'm like: WOW! WOW! WOW! You and your team capture emotions. It’s like I’m seeing love, and not just a printed photo."

“More than our photographer, you were a friend on our wedding day, without losing your professionalism. We loved having you with us, we loved seeing your photos. We still can't choose the most beautiful ones for the album simply because there are so many... Thank you fot patience in teaching us how to "pose"and for accompanying us. You will definitely photograph us more often, Lidia.”

“I would like to thank you for all your affection and attention from the very beginning. The lightness with which you treat people and showcase your work is contagious and impossible not to recognize. You are fun and, above all, a talented professional. With your wonderful ideas and sweet words, it becomes impossible to feel embarrassed about taking photos—it’s just so easy to let go with you. The photos were incredibly beautiful.”

Working with Lidia Fernandes Photography was an absolute joy from start to finish! This was our first time collaborating with her, and what an incredible experience it turned out to be. Lidia recently relocated to Central Florida from Brazil, and her talent, professionalism, and warm energy have already made such a beautiful mark in our local wedding community.


We had the opportunity not only to collaborate with her on our recent styled shoot at Cypress Creek Farmhouse but also to model for it as a couple. As we approach our 20th wedding anniversary — and having never had true wedding photos of our own — these images mean more to us than she’ll ever know. Lidia captured our connection, laughter, and love in such an authentic and timeless way.


Beyond her artistry, Lidia is a wonderful person — kind, easy to work with, and incredibly dedicated to her craft. We’re so grateful for the friendship that’s come from this collaboration and are looking forward to working with her again for years to come.

"Lídia, I want to thank you for all your care and attention. From the very beginning, when I first visited your office, the grace with which you treat people and showcase your work was contagious—it was impossible not to notice. Our engagement session was wonderful; you are so much fun and, above all, a top-tier professional. With amazing ideas and kind words, you made it impossible to feel shy; it’s so easy to let guard down around you. The photos turned out incredibly beautiful!

On the wedding day, during the bridal prep, you captured every moment—the smiles and the nerves—and you kept me calm. During the ceremony and reception, you let us be ourselves. This is so important because when we look at the photos, we see our true selves, and it’s wonderful; they are images we want to look at every single day. For the post-wedding session, we took your suggestion to go to The Royal Palm Plaza, and it was incredible! You turn moments of shyness into something fun. I hope we can shoot much more together—don't forget we still have travels and many more memories to capture. You are such a bright and special person. Thank you for everything, to you and your team. Warm regards!"

I prefer to let a great mind and  mentor to say who am I

“I find Lídia to be both an artist and an entrepreneur. Her work creates bridges between people, and her business acumen is solid. After consulting hundreds of professional photographers over the years, I believe Lídia has more than required to succeed commercially in the United States. She is remarkable.


It is also worth noting that she has the full support of her husband, who I also know personally. This support is critical given the demands and commitment required to find success as a professional photographer.


Further, her character is without compromise. She is hard-working, trustworthy. Lídia also has technical mastery over her field and a deep commitment to maximizing value for her customers.”
