"We are mirrors, between what
we allow ourselves to see and feel."

We all have lights that the mirror doesn't give back.

We are not books open to the world in the various versions that Ana's lens captures because she has this art of capturing facets that we can't find on our own and the beauty lies in the elegant subtlety with which they are presented to us. These are the photographs that show everything without showing anything.

The concept is so beautiful!

He arrived slowly... I don't know, but I heard that one day he was asked to do something different. "Ana, do you remember that session I gave him as a birthday present, before we broke up? We wanted to do it together and... with no clothes on, okay?"

Those who have seen them say that there are epic photos from that session!

But the creative divergences that result from the contrast between the importance of disseminating art and respecting the limits of each person's privacy have always been part of the choices of this wonderful professional, who refuses to use an image to promote herself against the wishes of those involved in the creative process of each of her photographs.

Yes... because none of these works are watertight. In every detail of the photograph there is the finger of the artist and the hand of the subject. From the pose to the setting, everything has a story and a meaning... and that's why it becomes an unforgettable moment eternalized by the click on the card and the wink in the memory.

And that's what makes us wait, always and eagerly, for the choice she makes to show the world everything she's experienced without showing anything that compromises it!

After that first session, here's what happened: a photograph of Love, of recognized merit, in which everything you see is ashamed of nothing as in a museum gallery...

E depois vieram as seguintes: uma prenda de aniversário de Amor, um autorretrato de Amor, enfim, Amor sob várias perspectivas de luz como só a Ana nos pode fazer brilhar até “aquela”…

Slowly... without counting... in a moment of Love, too, "that" image arrived that provoked the message that defined the concept of what had long been in the making... "#mostrartudosemmostrarnada"... Demonstrating to the World without exposing. It fit in like a glove with the idea of (e)taking the nude far above the ordinary and culminated in this pattern that we associate with his name today.

The definition of the Vida panel, with which he made a name for himself abroad and which is now his trademark. These are the photos that we can see on a street sign and that will never embarrass us.

And those that we keep to ourselves, that aren't meant to be shown to the world and that will only pass through other eyes if we want them to, those are the ones we use to relive the feelings that impregnate us, that make us fly through time and that we always want to repeat. The sensations! Because photographs are unrepeatable and that's the magic of this art: unrepeatable but eternal...
