Catarina Milhais Reis

Catarina Milhais Reis was born in the lovely town of Cascais, Portugal. She has lived all her life between the Atlantic Ocean and the Sintra Mountains. From a young age she developed an interest in photography as it provided her with a means to register the beauty of the places she is surrounded by. She has studied tourism and this has helped her get to know the extraordinary places around the Iberian Peninsula and it’s her goal to share these incredible scenarios with others. Catarina doesn’t like to label her photography, but she can say that it’s a very minimalist view of her world. She loves to accentuate the strong colors of the places she visits. For example, you’ll find blue in almost every photograph she takes - this is because the ocean or the blue sky are always present in her photography. For her, the goal is to make others feel happy through her photography and to make them forget about the dark moments they could be living.
