I’m a fashion photographer and visual storyteller working between Lisbon, Milan and Paris.
For more than a decade, I’ve worked across fashion, beauty, portraiture and commercial imagery — from intimate editorials to large-scale campaigns and e-commerce productions.
My approach sits somewhere between instinct and precision. I’m drawn to strong characters, natural gestures, considered light and images that retain a sense of imperfection. I like photographs that feel effortless, but are never accidental.
My relationship with photography started long before fashion. At sixteen, I began working as a photojournalist, an experience that taught me to observe before directing and to look for the story inside the image. That instinct has stayed with me ever since.
Fashion eventually became the place where those ideas found their language.
Over the years, I’ve worked across editorial and commercial photography, collaborating with international brands, publications, agencies and creative teams. My experience also includes working as a Senior Photographer at Farfetch, where I developed imagery at scale and became increasingly interested in the relationship between photography, consistency and brand identity.
Today, I move between editorial, campaigns, lookbooks, portraiture and visual direction, adapting to each project without losing the perspective behind the camera, transforming what the next step will be.
I’m interested in people more than poses.
In atmosphere more than perfection.
In images that communicate something before they need to be explained.
Photography, for me, is not about making things look beautiful.
It’s about making them feel something.
