Those Poor Kids

This alias belongs to a Brazilian-born, Paris-based photographer who sees the street as his studio.

Trained by the rhythm of the city, he built his name capturing strangers’ mid-stride. Unfiltered, unscripted, and unapologetically human. His lens finds the rare in the everyday, and he’s not afraid to chase it down. (Literally.)

He caught McDonald’s attention with a single image. Nike, Levi’s, Google, and Ricard soon followed. His work always starts with people and a fearless curiosity about what makes them stop you in your tracks.

This is what happens when a street shooter trains a model to hunt for magic.

Now working through generative AI, he brings that same street-sharpened instinct to synthetic spaces. Blending reality with fiction, spontaneity with structure, he builds visual worlds that feel like they could’ve been caught on a corner. But with better lighting.
