Self portrait in a mirror of photographer Rui Serra Ribeiro in Algarve

Rui de Vasconcelos Serra Ribeiro

Award-winning Fine Art Photographer

Born in Lisbon and based in the Algarve since 2010

For over three decades, photography has been my way of observing people


My Approach

  I photograph with a calm, discreet and attentive presence.

I believe the best images come from trust.

When people feel genuinely at ease, everything flows naturally, and that is where the most authentic moments unfold.

My experience allows me to be present at the right moments, anticipate situations, and work calmly, conveying safety and confidence.


Experience & Recognition

  With a background at Ar.Co in Lisbon, my path developed through years as a studio director in advertising photography.

Over time, I have taught photography to hundreds of students, exhibited personal work, and received international recognition through publications and awards.
