I don't pose the moment. I wait for it.

Unrepeatable emotion, told in light and shadow. Real weddings, unstaged, remembered exactly as they happened.

The Moments

A wedding is a thousand things happening at once. My work is to disappear, and bring back the ones that mattered. Below, a selection across many weddings.

One wedding, told start to finish. From the quiet of getting ready to the last dance.

About

The photographer
behind the shadow.

I am a Brazilian documentary wedding photographer. I believe a wedding should be lived, not directed, so I don't arrange people or ask them to smile. I wait, I watch, and I photograph what is real: the tear a father tries to hide, the laughter no one planned, the light falling exactly where it should.

My language is contrast. Deep shadow, honest light, black and white. Not to hide, but to strip a moment down to its feeling.

Award-winning at Inspiration Photographers and PROWEDaward, member of The Society of Photographers, and an invited photography-competition judge. Based in Brazil, photographing worldwide.

A note

Currently
not booking.

I'm not accepting new wedding commissions right now. I'm focused on a personal project at the moment, and if all goes well I'll be photographing weddings again before long.
