I’m Hugo, a wedding photographer based in Lisbon, Portugal. I have a beautiful family and for sure they are my inspiration, love cycling, the ocean and watch a good movie.

Photographing weddings is more than a job! It’s doing what I like most, having the opportunity to document moments that are expected to be unique, with such a large symbolism behind that goes beyond photos.

It’s having the possibility to awaken all these sensations and transport you back to that day. I want to be the person behind the smiles, the tears, the laughters as you look throughout your photographs and revisit your wedding day.

INTERVIEW

Who are you? Describe yourself in a few words

I think what defines me as a person and a photographer is the value I give to my family, and friends and the pleasure of small moments.

What in your personal life has influenced you to choose your career?

I've always liked to observe, I was very shy when I was little and I remember being the child who took the camera to school and on study visits, it was my way of communicating. Maybe that was the beginning of my passion.

What is creativity to you? Do you consider yourself to be creative? Why or why not?

I hope so, but I don't consider myself the most creative of all, my goal when I deliver a gallery is to achieve a connection between each image and to portray each person in the best way.

If you had the chance to live during a different artistic movement other than now, which one would you choose?

Without a doubt, the Renaissance period is what fascinates me the most and where I seek most of my inspiration.

Do you believe in destiny?

I don't, I think we need to see opportunities as a way to grow and follow the path we seek to have.

Do you ever create hidden meanings or messages in your work? Explain

Sure, I think that's a big part of the creativity in my work, especially because it's all about expectations. These messages don't need to be the best-kept secret, but it's good when we can make multiple readings of the same image.

Who is the most creative person that you have ever known?

My grandfather! Even without studies, he was an extremely creative person.

Have you always wanted to do what you are doing?

I always wanted to be a Photographer, and the discovery of wedding photography was a surprise.

Is there a particular place where you feel most creative?

Seeing and discovering new places I've never been brings me enthusiasm, but returning to simple places where I have memories gives me peace and comfort.

Do your work and approach have changed?

Sure, every time I discover something new. It's a learning process that is continually evolving and that brings a lot of creativity.

Is it difficult to maintain your level of knowledge? What do you do to improve it?

The world is changing so fast... sometimes can be difficult to follow and being part of the community is extremely important.

Do you believe art is something you were born with or something you have to find in your daily life? and work for?

Perhaps it is a more refined sense, but without a doubt it has to be worked on, with practice, confidence and humility too.
