"Photography is not just about capturing moments, but about telling the stories that make them unforgettable. Through every image, I aim to honor the beauty, depth, and emotion of life's most meaningful experiences."
João Couto
Photographer
I started my photography journey in 2017, training under one of Brazil’s top photographers, Raphael Menezes. This experience gave me a solid foundation and sparked my passion for capturing meaningful moments.
Over time, I branched out on my own, focusing on commercial, event, and lifestyle photography. I see photography as a way to preserve memories in a natural and timeless way.
My approach is discreet and candid, ensuring I capture genuine emotions and authentic moments. With close attention to detail, I aim to tell a story through images that highlight both the small details and the big moments.
Photography is about more than just taking pictures—it’s about creating something lasting. That’s why it’s important to work with someone who understands your vision and delivers images you’ll value for years to come.
João loves natural, candid shots that are full of meaning and emotion. Discreetly blending in with the guests, he will capture every moment and emotion without disturbing them. He can also guide you through a photoshoot for perfect posed photos and group shots.
João has an incredible eye for detail and a natural ability to bring out the soul of each moment, making every image feel both authentic and timeless.
Working with him brings a depth to each shot, capturing not only the beauty of the event but the emotions behind it.
His talent for capturing the essence of every scene and his dedication to portraying genuine emotion are what make his work so compelling.
“Florine and I had already worked together on a few projects, and seeing her creativity and vision with Baby Chella inspired me. Proposing this collaboration felt like the perfect way to showcase her unique approach to baby showers.
Capturing life’s precious moments with candid shots and natural expressions has always felt instinctive to me. I love photographing people in those real, unguarded moments.
The idea of photographing expectant mothers, celebrating life, and preserving those intimate, fleeting moments felt like a natural evolution of my work. Expanding my portfolio with this kind of event was exciting, as I’m drawn to diversity in my projects.
It’s truly an honor to capture these beautiful memories in such a meaningful way, celebrating the strength, beauty, and essence of women.”
“Together, Florine and I aim to create unforgettable experiences and lasting memories for every mother-to-be.”
