Let 's get to know me
MY ROOTS
I was born in Curitiba, Brazil, and was lucky to have parents who made family adventures a priority. Almost every year, we traveled to Disney World, Hawaii, and so many amazing places in the U.S.
Those experiences planted a seed in me, a fascination with the U.S. and the feeling that something special was waiting to be discovered here. Following that dream, I took the leap and moved to sunny San Diego, California. By the way, I still go to Disneyland and soak up every second — my wife likes to say I’m an eternal child at heart.
Life wasn't easy when I moved here, but the adventure in me kept me moving. Slowly, I found my own path, building my life step by step. I got married in Hawaii, marking the beginning of a whole new chapter.
Today, my life revolves around my wife and my two amazing boys, who remind me every day how precious family is. Everything I do, I do for them, with all my heart.
“" Family is not an important thing. It’s everything."”

MY WORK, MY PASSION
I know it might sound totally cliche for a photographer to say, but yeah, I had a camera since I was 4. My first camera was a King Regula Olymatic. My parents bought it in New York in the '80s, and eventually, I quickly became obsessed, snapping photos of everything, even pointing it the wrong way sometimes!
Now, when I’m not capturing photos or shooting videos, you’ll find me surfing in Leucadia, camping, or taking my kids to karate and baseball practice. Life is short, so I try to stay active and make every second count with my family.
Being a family photographer isn’t just a job; it’s personal. I help families capture memories that last a lifetime, because photos and videos are the closest thing we have to a time machine. Until one is invented, this is how we travel back in time, reliving the moments that matter most.
FINAL NOTES
Every family is unique, just like every photo session. Life isn’t perfect; there’s chaos, laughter, tears, and all the little ups and downs that make us human. And that’s exactly what makes your story beautiful. Through it all, one thing is always true in every family I photograph: they love each other deeply.
Life is short, and memories fade faster than we realize. Don’t let these moments slip away. Capture them with your phone, a camera, or by hiring me, so that the love, joy, and connection you feel today can be relived forever.
Booking a session isn’t just taking pictures; it’s freezing time, creating treasures your family will cherish for a lifetime. Years from now, you’ll look back on these photos and smile, remembering the laughter, the hugs, and the fleeting moments you never want to forget.
Let’s make your family’s story unforgettable.
Be happy and live your life to the fullest !
