The original passion was nature. But, still in my teens, I started observe it through the lens of a camera. When professional life became the conservation of the environment, the ingredients were combined so that I could venture into the career of a nature photographer.
I am from Curitiba (PR), but I have lived and worked literally from North to South of my country. Combining photography with conservation projects, I had the opportunity to register the most remote corners of Brazil and several other countries. Throughout my professional career, among other things, I lived for a year and a half in the middle of Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve, worked in partnership with indigenous peoples in the Amazon, worked for strengthening tourism and photographic registration of Brazil Parks and was member of a sailboat expedition to Antarctica..
