A DAY IN THE LIFE


 “One day all your children will have is pictures of you. Make sure you are in them. No matter what your hair looks like, your make up or your body, they won’t care about any of that, they’ll just want to see you. Do it for them.” –Unknown

Life has a way of rushing by, often leaving us longing to hold onto those fleeting moments.

This is where photography comes into play—bringing memories to life.

Documentary and Storytelling Photography focuses on capturing real experiences, free from poses or direction, and highlights the raw emotions that unfold in everyday moments.It's often the simplest, most genuine experiences that hold the deepest significance.

By freezing these moments in time, we create a visual storybook that can be treasured for generations to come.

Welcome!

Hello, I am a Portuguese documentary photographer and storyteller based in Dubai, specialising in photo reportage for Families & Weddings. My passion lies in capturing the beauty of everyday life through my lens.

As a parent, I understand the roller coaster of emotions that comes with raising children. The immense love we feel is often paired with exhaustion, and the days can feel endless as we marvel at how quickly our little ones grow.

Amidst the chaos, our experiences embody a love-hate relationship—one that fuels nostalgia when we look back.Everyday moments deserve to be shared; even the seemingly mundane are filled with rich details, connections, and memories.

These moments are your TODAY, and they will become the cherished TOMORROW you’ll want to remember. I would love to collaborate with you to capture these priceless memories, transforming them into lasting treasures.

My main focus is to make your photographs meaningful.

The place can be anywhere, most important is that it will have a connection to you and your story.

It’s for sure a relaxed experience.

You’ll be You, and I’ll do the rest.
