About me

Vany Fila Photographer in Galway edited

Thank you for visiting my website and giving me the opportunity to show you a little bit about myself and my work.

I am a photographer based in Galway with availability throughout Ireland.
I’m a people photographer, as I like to say. It doesn’t matter if it is an event or a private photoshoot, my main subject are always people. I like to register their stories through the eyes of a spectator almost as if I wasn’t even there.

Offered services: Events & Photo Sessions. Family • Engagement • Pre-wedding • Maternity • Christening • Confirmation • Graduation • Proposal • Corporate and Business.

Feel free to take a look at my portfolio galleries and at my Blog section.

A little bit of background information about me…
I am Brazilian and was born in São Vicente, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
I have always loved being near the beach and spending hours enjoying the warmth of the sun and salty water.
I love being able to be connected to nature, to appreciate the beauties of this world. This has always been a pleasure for me. It was by photographing landscapes that my love for photography emerged.
I have a degree in Business Administration and in Occupational Health and Safety. For most of my life I have worked in the administrative field and have always kept photography as a hobby.
It was only in the year 2014 that I decided to study photography more deeply and started working as a freelance photographer covering events along the coast of São Paulo.
Later in 2018, I made the decision to get on a plane and visit Ireland. I couldn’t imagine that trip would drastically change my life. I fell in love with the culture, nature, historical beauty, and specially the receptivity of the Irish people. Then, I decided to stay even though I did not speak a word of English at the time.
It’s crazy, I know!
I have been blessed in so many ways since I arrived here, and today I am very fulfilled and happy to be able to work with I truly love here on this lovely and enchanting Emerald Isle.
