I'm an independent photographer based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, who loves urban themes.

If you have a special request of an image you didn't find here or needs for, cropping size etc message me and I will upload or custom edit any of the photos when possible. That's because I have a real huge image collection still not online! You can see a wider range of subjects clicking the link "Website".

Photography is a passion since my childhood. I was influenced by my father and an an older brother, who were photo enthusiasts.

I have a bachelor's degree in Advertising at Universidade de São Paulo since 1987. My career began as a graphic designer / art director.

An important achievements in photography: I'm one of the awarded artists of the 10th Art Biennial of Rome - 2014 (Biennale Internazionale d'Arte di Roma) in the photography category.

Bottom of the gorge of the Guadalevin River in Ronda, Málaga, Spain, as seen from the lower part of the house of the Moorish King. The house does incorporate one genuine and important relic of Ronda's Moorish occupation - the so-called Water Mine or Secret Mine. After what seems an eternity of walking along a crumbling staircase, we can reach the final door, emerging at the bottom of the gorge, a tranquil place.
