about me

and my philosophy

I was born and raised in Americana, São Paulo, and a few years ago I packed up my life and moved to the U.S - chasing both love and a dream. Being an immigrant has shaped how I see the world and how I tell stories. It taught me to slow down, to notice emotions, and to find beauty in transition.


My approach is rooted in connection first, camera second.


I blend an editorial eye with honest, documentary storytelling - meaning your photos will feel refined and intentional, but never stiff or overly posed. I’ll guide you when you need direction and step back when the real moments are unfolding. The goal is always to create imagery that feels elevated yet deeply personal.


I care about how your day feels just as much as how it looks. I help with timeline flow, lighting, and natural movement so nothing feels forced or performative. You won’t spend your wedding day in a constant photoshoot - you’ll be present, and I’ll preserve what’s real.


Above all, I want you to feel comfortable, seen, and supported. When there’s trust, the images follow.

all are welcome

 

Love is love, and it deserves to be celebrated fully and without hesitation. I proudly welcome and support couples of all backgrounds, identities, and orientations. My work is rooted in respect, inclusivity, and creating a space where you feel completely safe being yourselves. Your story matters, and it will always be honored here.

"When I first saw my wedding gallery gallery my jaw dropped. I felt like I was able to relive the day through the photos. The day goes by so fast and your photos allow me to remember the small moments forever. They were absolutely perfect and made me feel like a real life princess"
