Portuguese-American artist with a European education and a bold, minimalist style perfectly suited for the American entrepreneur. :) I started as a web and graphic designer to fulfill my desire to have a career that is artistic, technical, and visual. As a web designer, I bought a camera and began taking photos in order to add image content for my clients’ websites. As a fan of music, I also began experimenting with photography at small local concerts. After receiving complimentary feedback about these website and live music photos, I decided to pursue photography professionally. I strengthened and developed my skills by attending workshops, enrolling in professional online courses, and test shooting in the studio with musicians, friends, and my crazy family. I am available to travel anywhere in Virginia and DC and can shoot both digital and film. I want to take the time to get to know you. It's totally fine to tell me you don't know how to pose. I’m here to help you. Let me know if there’s anything I can do to help you feel more comfortable in being your silly self.
