About Me

I’m a photographer focused on portrait, documental and commercial photography. Based in São Paulo/SP - Brasil.

Portuguese native, and english working proficiency. I’m available for on location works in Brazil, or off-site assignments overseas — in both short or long-terms projects.

I was born in Sorocaba, a somewhat small town in Brazil. Back in 2002 I moved to São Paulo to study graphic design. My personal work with illustrations and design concepts helped me to start at an advertising agency in 2007 as an intern, and late 2011 after already being an art director I started my semiotics post degree — which I never finished.

I started Photography in 2014. In 2015 I left my steady job at an ad agency and back in November of that year I worked on a seminal personal photography project called “Minas Gerais: In the backlands paths”, based on Guimarães Rosa 150 miles travel with 8 boiadeiros (Brazilian native cowboys) in 1952. I was inspired by his most acclaimed book “Devil to Pay in the Backlands” (Grande Sertão: Veredas) published in 1956.

The idea was not to artificially recreate the universe of sertão, and neither portrait their people in traditional costumes to make a misleading impression of past on contemporaneity; but rather be in contact with place previously unknown to me and share my journey through images.

Currently I have been dedicating my time to personal projects, but also working with agencies and brands creating images for advertising campaigns.
