I was born in Cassia, a small town in Minas Gerais state, Brazil. I graduated in Journalism, but before getting a job in the area I went to London and worked as a waiter for one year. When I got back to Brazil, I got a job as a reporter in a popular newspaper in São Paulo. Long hours, weekend shifts and boring as hell. I wasn't happy with that, and this made me try photography. I studied under Brazilian master Carlos Moreira for one year in 2009, and this experience changed my life. I was very inspired by his work and philosophy and by masters of color and light such as Harry Gruyaert, Alex Webb and Gueorgui Pinkassov. I took to the streets to photograph. I learned São Paulo shortcuts, and I enjoyed the idea of doing something just to please myself when everybody else was rushing to work. I've never stopped since then. I photograph every day, at home or on the streets.
