Photography
Born in 1971 in Angola, at the age of 4 he comes with his family to Almeida. He lives in Leiria for a few years, graduated in Industrial Maintenance Engineering, where he practices in molds. From an early age he aroused interest in art, going through the drawing, painting oil on canvas, having already made an exhibition of painting. The photography has always aroused interest and as an admirer of the work of great photographers, he buys his first camera in 2007 to take his first steps. Slowly he has perfected his taste, exploring various areas of photography from: Architecture, Nature, Portrait, Art Nude, Street Photography, Macro, Abstract, Graphics, Conceptual / Surrealism.
