Gabriel Castro – Fotógrafo e Videógrafo em Lisboa, especializado em casamentos e branding.
About me

I'm a creative professional with the desire to grow and learn more every day.

I create professional & impactful content.

I’ve been in love with the creative area since paint and movie maker were the top programs you could find (suddenly I’m feeling old) and since then, somehow, I knew that this was what I wanted to work with.

With my persistence, creativity and knowledge acquired through the years, I have helped companies to achieve a new level of communication with their community.
And trust me, this is just the beginning…

What I do

Visual elements play a great role in boosting overall business results and setting up exclusive communication with clients.

Video

Video Marketing is critical to any content strategy. Why? Memorable and measurable. You can track and measure audience engagement for video in a really meaningful way.

Photography

The right photography for your branding is an incredibly important element to any successful business. Social media, website and all visual elements need high quality work that can transmit the true spirit of the company.

Design/Motion Graphics

Motion design is a great way to attract attention, as well as create a well-rounded brand image and present information in an appealing and compelling way.
