The more I work with different photographers, more I realized the aesthetic I want to pursuit.
I want to be involved in different projects, not really interested about nudity for nudity but to bring something else 'to the table'!

I want to be involved with images that make people look two, three, four times before they get the all picture, like this one I made with Alexandre Cabrita, and tied by Carlos from Knotlounge.


Every time I showed this picture to people, the first reaction was always "What is this?"
And this reaction is what I want to get from people. And I want to feel proud of myself to make people think and question photography.

I respect whom want to work through soft porn or erotic images but to be honest I think that's the easy way to work via nudity. Everyone can shoot frontal nude with anyone, with any camera, any light...
I want to be different! Work differently.
I'm not afraid to be naked in front of a camera with a stranger, and I'm perfectly aware not every one is willing to be naked like that. But I really want to use my 'not afraid of being naked' to make different images, images that make people look and investigate.

Plus I don't really think I have to show my face to make the pictures work. In fact I prefer not to show my face...

By the way, what do you think of this picture?

"Nudity is a subject, not a pretext to something else", I saw this on IG of @gurnicki, apparently its from @monikasobien.
This title is everything!

Artistic nude photography is a subject, not a pretext that you can contact the model because you can see she/he was naked on that picture or disrespect the photographer, or the photographer can disrespect the model just because she/he is naked in front of you or willing to do it...

Even today I read an interview of Sara Sampaio to a portuguese magazine where she tell about the 10 worst experience on her professional life. Curious some are about nudity, photographers that didn't respect her... Funny how in my very, very short amateur model life I cross my path with disrespectful people (including photographers).

I published on my IG some of photography where I'm visibly naked. No nipples, genital or what so ever can be seen. The fact that I'm not afraid to 'show off' my naked body doesn't make me a whore or slut or implies that some random guy can send me pics or text me "I want to get you know you better". Those guys are blocked from my IG account and until today I only replied and I was 'nice' to one contact like that.

Nowadays I only want to work with @alexandrecabrita because he's just amazing in every way. He respects me as a person, he respects my total inexperience of modelling, he's patient beside the fact he's a total creative genius.
I got several contacts from other photographers wanting to make dirty stuff almost porno... Not who I'm, the path I want to take as a model or creative person, how I want to use my body to express feelings.

But over this past months, I realized almost every one see nudity as a pretext, not a subject.
I want to do more artistic nude photography but the world lacks of good people, lacks of photographers that want to explore nudity in a different way that most people do. The world lacks of values!
If you are a photographer and you don't understand what I'm saying, go to WASE Mag website, see how around the world others see nudity as a subject, as a line to communicate feelings. Not a pretext to sex or sexualize the body (male or female).
If you are a random guy that see my pics and think you can try to contact me to have sex... Use your hand! Like Rick de Sousa said once "They just want to empty their balls". Totally!

If you think I'm a slut because I do this type of photography, I'm not. I'm more, so much more than you see here on my IG, and I only show what I want people to know about me...

Here it goes 10 things (most) people don't know about me:
1 - I've an inexplicable need to learn new things in all imaginable areas.
2 - I've an inability to express my true feelings and normally I build walls around me when I like someone, even push them away... (trying to change that but its so damn hard!)
3 - I've a dark, a deep secret wish to became famous (its my alter ego showing off).
4 - I bite my nails, especially when I'm driving, can't explain why.
5 - I over feel things (situations, lies, people, everything...).
6 - Still want to be a mermaid and my main reason for not believing in God is because he never turned me into a mermaid.
7 - I was left-hand as a child however nowadays I use most times my right hand, still can write and draw with my left hand.
8 - I dream to be fully tattooed one day, since I was a very little child.
9 - I'm dyslexic and I do stammer.
10 - I want to find the love of my life one day, the one and only that loves me for who I'm and I can be myself all the time and respects me even when I'm furious and want to destroy everything around me.
After all this said and done, you as a photographer want to collaborate with me, just contact me!
