Intimate, Natural and Stylish Photography

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺

  • I am the young of six and I was born in Brazil, I would say I am a dreamer and a free spirit. I love travelling, meeting new people and learning about other cultures.

    I have degrees in Psychology and PublIcity, and I believe my deep interest in both subjects is what makes my photography unique: I am a people person with high aesthetic standards.

    I moved to Australia in 2015. I actually went to Sydney to visit my sister 2 years before moving for good. Fell in love with the country and the wedding style there. Intimate, daylight, chill yet sophisticated.

    So I decided that my international career would start there. In 2019 I became a citizen, I like to say I am now a BrOzzie!

    I also have a Jewish Portuguese background and I just got my European passport.

    With the right to work legally in Europe, in 2023 I photographed in Mallorca Spain, Paris, Verona and Venice. And I can’t wait to photograph in other countries.

  • I have over 8 years of experience in the wedding industry working in Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Peru and some countries in Europe.

    I am an expert on intimate weddings and natural daylighting.

    Relaxed vibes yet stylish.

    Up to 80 people, a maximum of 12 hours, and photographing it all by myself.

    Even if I can offer second shooters, I prefer to work on my own, it makes it more intimate and the results are more consistent and natural.

    Let’s chat and I will let you know if I recommend a second shooter.

  • I hope my clients are people person just like me and we will vibe together on their wedding day.

    I hope we can have a genuine friendly connection and it goes smoothly the whole day. I want you to feel like you have your mate there with you.

    I love it when the couple have different backgrounds and put some cultural rituals on their wedding day.

    Having a couple that come from different cultures like an English man marrying a French girl is fun to watch.

    I also love it when the couple decides to go for something unconventional, or I get the vibe that they will go wild on the dance floor!

    If you bring your pet will love you even more.

  • Intimated, Romantic, Soulful, Natural, I would say a stylish photojournalism with an editorial touch, not posed.

    I intend to deliver to you more than photos but memories. While we are together I will choose the best spots and lighting then we will have fun together, with natural directions, and put you and your loved ones very close!

    But honestly, it is not about me it’s about you and I will light up what you really intend to show with your wedding.

    No awkward poses or crazy angles, just something real like you!

  • It is also natural and sophisticated, it’s bright colours with a fuji film discrete twist, respecting the real skin tones and the palette colour of your day.

    Light green tones, not desaturated.

    You can also expect classic black and white, I hope you love it as much as I do.

    I do not photoshop them, it would be an extra service that I can quote for you.

  • I will be already travelling around Europe. Let’s chat, I will do my best to not increase much the costs. It will depend on where I will be based and the date. Book your call and we will make it happen.
