Born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil,
where she learned the very basics of a dark room with her
father, an amateur passionate of photography.
Her interest in photography is quite eclectic, with a special
regard to street photograhy. She believes a style might
restrict the photographer´s interest and narrows down
photograph opportunities.
Her aim is to work with good cameras and lenses (in spite
of brands, although a DSLR Leica would be very much welcome
!) as well as to learn to work with post processing so as
to develop the skill to recognize the most adequate post
processing to her images.
Photofolia is a group decision and somehow celebrates the
friendship she has been building with the other fellow members.
She is very glad to welcome new members!

Born in Stuttgart, Germany, grown up in
Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo, Brazil, lived 10 years in
Switzerland and now based in California. He had his first
contacts with photography during school time including exposure
to conventional dark room procedures. He made the jump into
the digital hyperspace by choosing Nikon system 2006 as
his workhorse. Canon doesn’t impress him at all!
His main interest is landscape photography and inspires
him to do extensive travelling around the world as well
as backpacking in and around the Sierra Nevada, his backyard
so to speak.
To compose and chase the perfect light is almost the most
important aspect in landscape photography, but a clean post-processing
is as important.
To make Photofolia.net come to life was a real urge and
need for Peter. He is glad to have everyday someone joining
us here at this site.
Welcome!

Was born and raised in Curitiba, Brazil.
He shot his first photos at age 7 and 15 years old he learned
a little bit about dark room and fell in love with his first
Canon SLR.
After some long years distant from photography, Jose met
his passion again. This time taking underwater photography
with a Nikonos V. Finally he found a real new life with
the digital technology taking snapshots 2004. Since then
his interest grew progressively. Posting frequently his
photos online and making friends all around the world.
Jose uses a Canon DSLR. He has a special interest in landscape
photography, but never loses an opportunity to keep his
eyes open for all given opportunities.
Jose strongly believes that the best to learn about photography
is to share it with people with the same passion, and when
we met people just like we are, we also make friends. This
is how Photofolia.net was born and that is its sole purpose.
In essence, he is happy to say welcome!
