Behind the Lens

As a photographer, my mission is simple: to capture the fleeting, beautiful moments between loved ones so you can hold on to them forever. Whether it's an engagement, a wedding, or just a quiet moment between two people, I believe every love story deserves 

to be documented in a way that's as unique as the relationship itself. Photography has been my passion since I was a child growing up in Brazil. I still remember the day my dad bought me my first Canon camera at a local flea market. From that moment on, I was hooked. Whether it was capturing moments on the streets, at family gatherings, or playing with my baby sister—who, to this day, is still my favorite little model—I knew I had found something special. When I moved to New York, my love for photography only deepened. I found myself documenting everything: the city’s vibrant streets, my everyday moments, and, most of all, the people around me. It wasn’t long before I turned my passion into a photography business, focusing on couples and families visiting New York for the first time. There’s something magical about capturing that look of wonder in their eyes when they see the city lights for the first time, or the intimate, shared glances between two people in love. These are the moments I live for. I would be honored to help tell your story through photos and video, and I’m grateful you’re considering me to capture these once-in-a-lifetime moments.

Behind the Scenes

Telling stories is my passion. Co-founding Olive Theory Photography has been a dream come true, allowing me to capture the timeless stories of love that are at the heart of every image. With a background as a trailer editor, I honed the art of piecing together stories from subtle hints—finding those small glances, gentle touches, and serendipitous moments that speak volumes. As the first point of contact at Olive Theory, I’ll take the time to discover your unique story, ensuring that each photoshoot is a thoughtful, personalized experience that celebrates your journey.

"The true beauty of a photograph is woven from the love it holds
and the story it tells.

It’s not the place, but the pulse of emotion within it— a silent conversation between two hearts— that turns a mere image into a keepsake of love."
