Gonçalo Barriga is a people & lifestyle photographer with a passion for fitness & sports, based in Lisbon, Portugal.

Sports and fitness have always been an important part of his life, and that makes any type of active lifestyle photography a perfect fit. When working with a fitness brand or an individual athlete, he strives to become the client's best possible ally, making sure to understand their goals and contributing on how to reach them.

His recent, ongoing, personal project — BODY — showcasing athletes, dancers and basically anyone who can express themselves with their body, is an exploration of the diverse manifestations of an active lifestyle.

He has been working as a full time photographer since 2010, shooting events for Ironman and Red Bull, making promos for CrossFit gyms and editorial portraits for athletes and personal trainers. He is also hired for commercial and lifestyle imagery for fitness brands.

In 2023 he was invited to judge the entries for the Chromatic Awards as an Official Juror.
