Author Archives: Rafaelinho The first photo I ever took of the Griffith Observatory way back in 2011 when I was just starting to get into photography. It took me this long to finally post it. This has remained my favorite place to shoot in all of Los Angeles. I guess you never do forget your first time. Ha! […] 
 I had the great pleasure of being part of an expedition through the Yucatan jungles of Mexico with a group of explorers who love searching for obscure Mayan ruins. They are all a modern day version of Indiana Jones, but with iPhones. Now, I will never claim to know as much about Mayan history as […]
 When I was in Rio, I purposely went up to the Christ Redeemer statue right before closing time. I wanted to be up there right as sunset happened and I knew I was not going to be disappointed. I wasn’t. Muito obrigado Rio. Click photo for a big surprise

 The popular Painted Ladies Victorian style houses across from Alamo Square park in San Francisco. They have been photographed countless times so I though I would try a different perspective. Click photo for a big surprise
 I’ve been to Rio twice in my life and I have to say, it is probably one of the most photogenic cities I have ever visited. Right alongside Paris & San Francisco. It has beautiful beaches, beautiful landscapes, beautiful weather, and beautiful people. What else can a photographer hope for? You can catch a glimpse […]
 In spite of the disastrous exit from the World Cup, I am pretty sure the nation of Brazil will be just fine when all is said and done. Just look at what they get to enjoy every day on the beaches of Rio de Janeiro. So your team lost a big game on the global […]
