I'm an imagemaker from Rio de Janeiro. I decided to be a photographer when I was 14 years old. I won my first camera in a bowling championship. After that day, I began shooting everything I could put my eyes on.

I began as a professional at 20 working for a Brazilian weekly news magazine, kind of LIFE, named MANCHETE. After that I moved to shoot nudes for STATUS, a kind of PLAYBOY magazine, here in Brazil.

Next move was to work with JACQUES COUSTEAU during 2 years in the project "Amazon Expedition" and after that some other expeditions follow during almost 4 years. That time was the best experience of my life.

In 1984 I began shooting for advertising opening my own studio. Three years later moved to Los Angeles where I stayed 4 years. Back again to Rio de Janeiro, I have a new studio and playing in the digital era.

Since 1997 I got very excited with QTVRs and began shooting VRs.

Until today I'm a professional photographer, or better say; an Imagemaker.

You can see samples of my work in my personal website : http://ayrton.com or for Imersive Panoramas just go to : http://ayrton360.com where you will see thousands VRs of Rio de Janeiro and Brazil.
