Portfolio
As a landscape photographer, I have been taking pictures for the past ten years. My work has been published on photoblogs, Flickr, Olhares, and I am already featured on Getty and Artzilla Gallery.
I started painting very early as a hobby. I had to give up painting to pursue my studies on Literature. Later, when I took photography with passion on a daily basis, I felt I was replacing the painting I had abandoned years ago. I love photographing nature, specially woods and trees. Early morning mist is my favourite atmosphere. Mixing mist with light has been my best joy. When I photograph, I see with my heart and soul…
Photography is now part of myself! My eyes are now insasiable looking at the world...
«This very insasiability of the photographing eye changes the terms of confinement in the cave, our world. In teaching us a new visual code, photographs alter and enlarge our notions of what is worth looking at...»
On Photography/Susan Sontag
When I started photographing regularly, I first chose an HP Photosmart R742. Life had a CANON EOS 10D in store for me, which I really enjoyed. Recently, I bought a Nikon D80, and more recently a Nikon D90, which is my joy!

"Teresa Teixeira has a gift. Her eye sees and composes photographs of remarkable beauty and depth. Photographing what light strikes is a compulsion of all the citizens of Flickr. But Teresa’s talents go far beyond because photographing is to her an act as natural as breathing or moving at will. The poetry of the light is hard to recognize in our daily life but easy to understand when seen from her photographic perspective. It shows in the compositions, in the chosen angles , in the consistent but varied themes, in what light reveals as much as hides in shadow, and sometimes in her deciphering what distinguishes the ho hum from the outstanding. Teresa has no formal training. Her abilities are intrinsic and continue to grow artistically. I am very proud to know her."

"You brought me to Flickr and my life has changed since then. I feel
it' s time to write my testimonial about you. But, what can I say?
I can say that you are a great photographer.
But no, you are not. You are much more than that!
I can say that you are a good person.
But no, you are not. You are much more than that!
I can say that you are an inteligent, sensitive, creative, supportive, dynamic, generous, pleasant, nice person.
But no, you are not. You are much more than that!
You are a most beautiful human being and a great artist, that' s what you are.
Thanks, Teresa, so much, for having crossed my life!"5th July, 2008

"Teresa is a beautiful and delicate woman. She is the best of dynamism and professional training. But also the best of sensibility. She was my teacher and she deserves all my admiration.
I am here because of her...
It was her only mistake .-)))"2nd April, 2008

"Teresa is a sensitive, nice, pleasant photographer and person. I have the privilege of knowing Teresa since 2001, and we could not dream by that time that we would meet here, in this Flickr community. Hum, if I am not mistaken and my memory serves me well :-) Teresa is the one responsible for my entry in Flickr. Thanks Teresa! It’s always a pleasure to comment your photos!"
