I was born in 1969 in Lisbon, where I live. I am a geographer by profession. My hobbies include photography and composing electronic music. I became interested in photography early on. Later, in the early 1990s, I studied photography at Ar.Co. I developed my techniques and aesthetic sense in depth. The mass adoption of digital technology was still a long way off. I then stopped taking photos for several years. The emergence of the first mobile phones with cameras and the rapid and favourable evolution of the quality/price ratio sparked my interest again.
I started sharing my photos online, mainly through Instagram, in 2014. That's how I met people and, every now and then, we would go on photo walks that revolved around the themes that interested the group. It was around that time that I invested in a Fujifilm. The pandemic put an end to that era.
The themes that capture my eye rarely involve people: minimalism, modern architecture, details, angles, plays of light and shadow, geometry and colours. I place a lot of importance on composition and prefer days with strong light and blue skies.
At the invitation of Júlio Aires, I have participated in one of the 22nd edition exhibitions.
