THE MINDFULPHOTOGRAPHERS

Biography

I photograph what is felt before it is explained.

I am a Brazilian documentary photographer whose work brings photography and contemplative practice together. After living in Brazil, Chile, England and Italy, I am now based in St. Gallen and work across Switzerland and beyond.

I am trained in mindfulness meditation and spent nearly three years at the Nazaré Uniluz retreat centre in Brazil. That experience shaped how I photograph, with attention, patience and respect for what is already there.
