"My name is Hugo Santarem Rodrigues, I'm an independent international award-winning photographer.

I worked as a creative art director, still photographer on movie sets, and documentary photographer, and now I'm mixing my unique background to tell stories on multiple platforms.

As a commercial and fine art photographer, I work on projects that help to promote an ethical and socially responsible lifestyle, respect, and good values, through creativity and aesthetics.
