From the challenging days of legal internships dealing with divorces, probate, and mountains of paperwork Eliane Pellegrini took a bold step in a new direction.
She traded the formalities of law for the warmth of smiles and the preservation of unforgettable moments, reinventing herself as an artist dedicated to capturing life’s most precious milestones.
This career change was backed by a solid academic foundation. Eliane graduated in Communications, specializing in Digital Multimedia, Photography, and Video Editing. She later completed advanced training in Photojournalism and Data Journalism, earning her professional credentials as a journalist.

Eliane mentions that receiving a bit of each culture adds to the completeness of her work, and in return, these clients certainly receive a great deal of love and light through her art.
Photography is part of my life practically every day; if I’m not photographing, I’m editing, or I’m with my students online, or involved with Outstanding
