Porto - Portugal

I’m Cláudio Almeida, a visual creator working across fashion films, branded video and photography.

 

I approach commercial work as storytelling. Emotion, rhythm and meaning come before explanation. My background in studio lighting, product photography and cinematic direction allows me to create images that feel intentional, tactile and human.

 

I’ve been teaching photography and visual language since 2009, which strongly shapes the way I work. I’m less interested in trends and more focused on clarity of ideas, the perception of time, and the tension between movement and stillness.

 

I collaborate with brands and institutions looking for visual work with presence — images and films that don’t rush to explain, but invite the viewer to stay.
