Paula S.
When I left Brazil for London in 2015, I was still working as a freelance PhD anthropologist researcher for Brazilian and North-American Universities, NGOs and charities, such as FrameWorks Institute and Harvard University.
While enjoying the freedom of a freelance life, which allowed me to move to London and fall in love with the city, I felt less enthusiastic about not having a personal creative outlet and the relatively short reach of the field of academic research I had chosen to do.
I decided I wouldn't postpone my dream to work in a creative job any longer. To train as a photographer, I experimented with different areas of photography - interiors, products, families, children - but portrait and documentary photography were always where I wanted to be as they allow me to bring a visual dimension to the social-inspired questions I've accumulated since the start of my career as a social anthropologist.
I currently live in London with my husband and two cats where I grow gardens, knits and portraits.
