the one who is behind the lenses

and sees poetry in every story

Hi there!  I am photographer from Brazil and I am based in Paris, France. I started photographing back in 2014, I fell madly in love with it and haven't stopped ever since, so I created Poetria to share my love and art with everyone that might feel connected with it. 


I am nature lover, avid reader and I adore to listen to people's stories and passions, as well as record fleeting moments and eternalizing them as photographies. I'm a storyteller at heart and I try to bring that with me to every session I do. 


 I love not only creating artistic photographs, but also connecting with people and giving them a memorable experience and  a special moments that result in beautiful photos that will last a life time. As a camera-shy person, I'm here to show that you don’t need to be a model or ‘photogenic’ to have poetic, cinematic and artistic photos of you. As a photographer, my role is to guide you and to create an environment where you feel safe to just have fun and forget that the camera is there.


I believe everyone is worthy of having their stories shared and portrayed with sensibility and care.
