About

Ever since I remember painting, photography and cinema were my greatest passions but I was also interested in people, feelings and emotions. Fashion became the vehicle to explore all the things that fascinated me. 


I started my career as a photographer at the age of seventeen, shooting a theatre play. At that time, I attended the prestigious Ar.Co School in Lisbon, where I studied photography for four years. During my time at Ar.Co, I honed my skills and earned a master's degree in photography. 
 

My references are the work of photographers such as Tomas Ruff and Diane Arbus, Nan Goldin, Helmut Newton, Robert Mapletorpe and Nan Goldin.
