I am an Oakland-based portrait and lifestyle photographer. I've always been fascinated by stories and the emotions that make them so moving and memorable. Perhaps this is why I chose to study Journalism and Communication in the early millennium. That time in college solidified my passion for visual storytelling and photography. As the decade progressed, I advanced my professional career in my home country, Brazil, working with the Press Office and Marketing, where I had numerous opportunities to use my photography skills in corporate events and branding shoots. Today, I am content and fulfilled because I am able to work directly with my clients and tell their stories with the same professionalism and a lot more love.

camera Nikon Z6, Nikon D850, Nikon Z7

As a highly skilled professional with a diverse background in web development, graphic design, and sales, I have honed my craft and cultivated my passion for photography throughout my career. My tenure with esteemed organizations such as Apple, Disney, and Facebrasil Magazine has not only provided me with valuable industry experience but also served as a catalyst for my personal and professional growth. Photography and digital art have long been my passions. Through the lens, I am able to capture the world as I perceive it, transforming it into a visual language that is both expressive and dynamic. Photography is a medium for art, light, dreams, sensitivity, and pure passion. It is a medium through which I express myself, find fulfillment, and fall in love with each click of the shutter.

How did you get started with photography

I came to photography from painting, taking photos to help make paintings. Ultimately, I came to see the wider possibilities of photography in the more accurate capture of a particular moment and an expanded outward vision. The laborious processes of film photography never appealed to me so I largely bypassed aspect of photography. However, when the first digital cameras came out I found my graphic design background had given me the tools and skills to make the most of the new medium.

What do you love about your job?

The camera offers me doors into parts of the world and experiences I might never have know of, let alone seen. And it has given me the opportunity to meet any number of interesting people. I enjoy the challenge making a good photo in the tiny space of time that events allow, of trying to see and capture the special moment, of finding just the right angle in the right light - and of being just lucky enough to have all the pieces fall into place at the moment I press the shutter.

What are some of your favorite places in San Francisco to take photographs?

San Francisco City Hall is one of my favorite place to shoot - light is always beautiful, the stonework is beautiful and even when crowded there is always somewhere to shoot. The view of the Golden Gate Bridge from Fort Point can be amazing - but is weather dependent. The Palace of Fine Arts has plenty of elegant stonework for backgrounds and can work even in poor weather.
