Nice to have you here!

Hello. My name is João and I’m the photographer and occasional writer at Green Matter. I am based in Lisbon, Portugal.

I started taking pictures circa 1982 and for the longest time I mostly did landscape photography, which I still do, on occasion. I always had a keen interest in the female form, and that’s what I have been picturing, almost exclusively, since 2014.

I am always on the lookout for people to work with. If you enjoy my work, feel free to drop me a note to info (at) greenmatter.one

The delicate cut

This is my signature photo, one I wanted to shoot for so long, and I want to share with you what it means and how it was done
