The story of this pictures is about a very special trip I made to the north of Brasil, to Pipa and further north to Jericoacoara, Fortaleza. Its about a young girl, lost, broken hearted, dissilusionated and trapped in her oun net she had been building for 22 years. This place is srrounded by mountains of sand an infinit sea ahead and in between the mountains small ponds are formed because of the rains. The feeleng out there is of a magestic enormity full of life, but at the same time such gratness of nature made you feel so light and small that for some moments I could feel a strange emtiness inside me. It was like I was alone sorounded by mountains of sand and the ocean that enveloped me with such kindness. The sky and the stars were all part of the same scenery and I was just an observer of all of this natural place. I walked hours up and down those mountain until I found a little shelter lost in betwwen them or a magic pond or the ocean or just m e and all that sand. Felt like I was the only one there been witness of everything and nothing at the same time.

It was for sure an experience the hole time. a story of a girl who still cant find her place in this world, who cant find yet a fertil ground were the soil allows her to spred roots. Here she felt de ground, the sant and the sea, she felt the place felt like she was closer to discover her purpose, and find her self as she realy is.

Im 27, I work everyday as a producer in documentaries and tv series, I once studied photography, I love images, still life drove me other way and my camera has gone to second place. I want to reconect with her. I need a time out, I need to stop, get away from my daily life, and connect with nature. I am a great observer, I need to hang on to my camera and explore it, but more importante I need a mentor, someone with whom I can learn, listen and observe. Words are blown by the wind, is what we remember and the feeling we are capable of receiving what matters. Thats what I love about photography it englobes everything, its mayor expression of life as we know it and understand it . One capture can describe a hole time line. Photography to me is meaningful. I am going through a specific crisis were I cant find much sense to anything I do. I am full of longing for something more than this out of my routine and my common places. We live in a world that moves so fast where we live like nomads, running around to end the day.A world where time becomes ephemeral and what I want is to stop it in at least one frame. I would like to have the chance, see what Im capable to do and express. This is why I think you should chose me, because Im in a momento were Im opened to the experiecne were I can be as usufull as yo can imagine and understand the importance of knowing to observe and listedn to focus on what matters and explore the best of it.Im good listening, observing and most of all Im very pereptive and sensitive with people and nature.
