I am a photographer and graphic designer based in Italy
I’m Gabriel, a Brazilian 19 year-old daydreamer. People often describe my approach to life as analytical, and according to my analysis, they are absolutely right. Alongside this, an important trait of my personality is my adaptability. I thrive in diverse environments, love tackling challenges head-on, and enjoy stepping out of my comfort zone to explore the unknown.
From a young age, I was encouraged to be creative. In Brazil my exposure to newer technology was delayed, so I developed the habit of creating my own solutions for self-made entertainment, like building catapults, which not only helped me to overcome boredom, but also fostered my problem-solving skills and helped me think outside the box, a mindset that continues to shape my approach to challenges and set me apart from the competition to this day.
After completing high school in Brazil at 17, I found myself, feeling conflicted about which path to take for my future. I ultimately decided to take a leap of faith and move to Italy, even though I wasn’t sure what opportunities or challenges might lie ahead. This decision marked a turning point in my life, opening the door to countless learning experiences and significant personal growth.

I’ve honed my skills in various scenarios, often offering my services for free whenever I encountered a photographic request i was unfamiliar with.
Capturing the fast-paced action of football games taught me to shoot quickly, mastering focus racking and timing.
Shooting in clubs helped me refine my ability to work in low-light environments, using flash to bring out the mood and energy of the moment.
While shooting portraits, I studied the behavior of light in the anatomy and learned how to highlight the unique beauty in every face. -
