Rui Cardoso is a photographer with a background in architecture.
After completing his architecture degree at the University of Porto, he began working closely with Manuel Aires Mateus at his atelier in Lisbon, where he developed a keen interest in architectural photography.
After four years of collaboration, he decided to dedicate himself entirely to photography. Through his imagery, Rui seeks to capture a poetic and sensitive approach, focusing deeply on light, shadow, texture, and materiality. Driven by a love for analog photography, he works exclusively with film.
