Lux Paradise Trip 2010

Capturing Elegance and Exclusivity: Documenting the Lux Paradise Trip in São Tomé & Príncipe

Welcome to my extraordinary photographic journey in São Tomé & Principe, Africa. In 2010, I had the privilege of being the honour to become the official photographer to document the distinguished “Lux Paradise Trip” event held on these breathtaking tropical islands sponsored by Sol Magazine, Banco Equador and Pestana network Hotels. This remarkable experience allowed me to capture the enchanting fusion of renowned Portuguese personalities from the TV industry, as actors, journalists, and writers gathered in this idyllic setting.

Throughout the week-long event, I was entrusted with the task of creating a comprehensive documentary that showcased the diverse range of activities, from special productions to exclusive occasions with local brands and iconic places. With my camera, lenses and my instinct as my guide, I meticulously captured each moment, employing different angles and techniques to curate a portfolio that would captivate travel photography, fashion, cultural, cosmopolitan and VIP magazines.
