About me
I’m a professional photographer based in Porto, Portugal. Photography has always been my passion—even during the 15 years I spent working in IT as an engineer. In 2024, I finally decided to pursue my dreams full-time, starting out with portrait photography and then turning my attention to food and still life.
I’m also a contributor to Stocksy, where you can find and purchase my images.
What Gear Do I Use?
My professional setup is a Sony Alpha system with a variety of prime lenses.
I also do photography as a hobby, so I have a few more cameras to explore different styles.
For street photography, I rely on my Ricoh GR3X—and if you’re a Ricoh fan, I’d love to go for a photowalk with you!
I also have a retro Leica Deluxe 3. It isn’t fancy but has its own unique charm.
And for fun shoots and art projects, I sometimes use an instant toy camera that prints images on thermal paper.
What Do I Shoot?
I enjoy working across different genres, but currently, my focus is on still life, food, and portrait photography. I also take on interior photography projects, which feed my love for obsessing over tiny details.
I always appreciate your crazy ideas! If you like my style and have something wild in mind, don’t hesitate to contact me.
