As a Cayman based photographer I offer my services for anything from family shoots and special occasions to corporate events & portraits.

I’m still learning this version of summer ☀️

Different from Cayman’s turquoise waters white beaches, but beautiful in a completely different way.

Golden sand, rust cliffs, endless Atlantic skies and little moments that make this gorgeous new place start to feel more and more like home 🧡

She found out I was going to be in Cayman.
So she changed her flights. Rerouted her entire family holiday. Flew from Canada — just to do this.
I don't have words for what that means to me. Truly.
I photographed her first son at this exact age, on this exact beach, about three years ago. And somehow here we were again — same light, same water, a whole new little person, and the same woman who trusted me with the first one.
There's a kind of loyalty in that I'll never take for granted. The clients who come back — who bring their babies back, who change their plans, who fly across an ocean — they're not just clients anymore. They're part of my story too.
Thank you for always finding your way back to me. 🤍

🌈 Everyone talks about the adventure.

Nobody mentions the paperwork. The boxes numbered one to sixty-something.

The strange grief of leaving a place that became home without you even noticing. Nobody tells you that your child will press their face against the plane window as Cayman disappears underneath you, and that you'll have to hold it together while your whole chest breaks a little.

Nobody warns you that you'll arrive to a construction site instead of a home, or that "settling in" will take longer than any timeline you gave yourself.

This move has been one of the hardest things our family has done. And also, somehow, the most clarifying.

If you're in the middle of something big right now — a move, a change, an ending that doesn't feel finished yet — I just want you to know that it's okay for it to be hard. It's okay for it to take longer than expected.

You're not behind. You're just in it.

Do you ever stand on the beach pretending to fart?

No? Just me?

Apparently, that’s the secret.

Years behind a camera, and the thing that gets boys laughing was me completely losing all dignity... Whatever works.

This family has been with me for such a long time. They were once the first faces people saw on my website, and somehow, years later, they came back to Cayman to do this all over again - and I’m so grateful they did!

There’s something quietly wonderful about watching a family grow between sessions. The boys who once fit so easily in their mother’s arms, now laughing so hard they can barely stand up.

Same love. Completely different chaos. 🤍

I've been thinking a lot lately about what I actually do.

Not the technical side. The other part.

After years of photographing families in Cayman, I've come to understand that I was never really there to make people look good. I was there to make sure they could look back. 🤍

Back at the way he kissed her cheek on the beach. At how small his hands were that evening. At the chaos that, from the outside, looked a lot like joy.

Every session was a time capsule. Every click, a small act of presence.

That's the work I'm bringing with me into this next chapter — and I can't wait to start preserving stories for families here in Cascais and beyond. 🌊

Moving to a new country has a way of making you feel very small sometimes.

Back in Cayman, I have so many wonderful friends and clients in real estate — people I trust completely, people I could call in a heartbeat. But starting over somewhere new is different. You don’t know who to trust yet. You don’t know who truly cares beyond the transaction.

And then sometimes, if you’re lucky, you meet people like Sandrine and her wonderful sister and business partner, Brigitte.

People who understand that finding a home is never just about property. It’s about people. About safety, timing, stress, hope, family and all the emotions tied up in building a life and home somewhere new.

Through one of the most difficult transaction and emotional processes, they showed up for us again and again with kindness, patience, honesty and heart — and somehow made the impossible feel manageable.

I’m endlessly grateful not only for everything they did for our family, but for the kind of people they are underneath it all.

Photographing people I genuinely admire will always be my favourite thing. And somehow it feels especially meaningful that these portraits were taken in the very home they helped us find 🤍

P.S. If you are ever toying with the idea of buying real estate in Cascais… you know who to call .gorjao from .realestate

🤍 There’s a moment, somewhere between the chaos and the quiet, where motherhood becomes visible.

Not in the big milestones, but in the way she reaches for their hand without thinking. The way they still look for her first. The way love lives in the ordinary.

I think that’s why I photograph mothers the way I do.
Not perfectly. Not performatively. Just truthfully.

To every mother in front of my camera — thank you for letting me witness your softness, your strength, your exhaustion, your magic. One day these photographs will feel less like memories and more like proof:
you were there, loving them through every version of yourself.

Happy Mother’s Day 🤍

Should I retire?⁠
⁠
A question I asked myself a lot in the last few month...
⁠
Not because I stopped loving my work, but because life felt heavy and somewhere in all of that, I lost touch with the part of this work that has always meant the most to me.⁠
⁠
Photography has never been about the job or the money. It’s always been about connection, storytelling and capturing moments people get to hold onto forever.⁠
⁠
Going back to Cayman reminded me of all of that.⁠
⁠
Seeing families I’ve photographed for years, reconnecting with all people I care about and being part of these special moments again reminded me just how much I love what I do.⁠
⁠
Sometimes you just need something to bring you back to yourself.⁠
⁠
And this did. Cayman did. You all did. ⁠
Thank you 🤍
