Hi. I am a Portuguese photographer, cinematographer, and creative director, born in Madeira Island. On this website, there are photos from personal, documentary, editorial and commissioned work, captioned by not so random thoughts on science, philosophy, and other stuff.
All my life I have found comfort in minimalism, art, and science. I think the first one has something to do with the way I process emotion, the latter one has driven my curiosity to places it would be impossible to reach without science, and art, well, art is always in the middle.
