About me

 

It is the beauty and timelessness of the wild outdoors that stays with me on each escape to nature. I find healing in the deep appreciation of nature; in the depths of trees and mountain-tops.

I am a “Carioca“ (name given to someone born in Rio de Janeiro) and have found a home in the Pacific Northwest for the last 12 years.

Through photography, my goal is to evoke an essence of beauty that exists in the world. Feelings of peace, curiosity, pause, and reflection. A prompt to slow down and savor the moment.

I hope to motivate and inspire others to enjoy and protect the outdoors;
to find beauty in the world and in themselves;
to stop and smell the flowers.
