Artistic portrait of a couple dancing in a deserted monastery in Brazil. This photograph
was taken with a light behind to generate a nostalgic and magical idea. This is where the
bride and groom played when they were kids and it means a lot to them.

My passion is telling good stories and I chose the camera for my magic wand to do it. I grew up in a family of photographers and I learned from my parents that taking pictures of people is fun, and that love always creates the best scripts, so I chose to tell stories of weddings.

I studied photojournalism and visual arts with masters from Brazil and abroad, and today I do what I love most: keep telling good stories through my images.
