TIAGO XAVIER a.k.a. TIAGUMOS
freelance photographer

Born in Oporto in 1985, currently residing and working in Lisbon, he showed an early passion for art and creativity, and drawing was his vehicle of expression. Expressing on a piece of paper his environment has been a strong tool to reach the point where he is at the moment. His education is based on Graphic Design, but his real passion is photography.

With a settled professional studio, his professional experience reached several areas, such as: Fashion, Portrait, Artistic Nude, Editorial, Advertising, Catalog, Photojournalism, Nature and Landscape Photography. He also have some experience as a event's photographer and still photography of some productions, the latter being his favorite, because it allows him to be close to is other passion, film-making.

Tiago Xavier’s photography is characterized by irreverence, experimentalism and a very unique view of the world, which explains why he can always capture something interesting, whether the target of his lens is a beautiful model or the anus of a panda.

One thing is certain, Tiago’s photos are never boring.
