João Marques is a Documentary Photographer based in Lisbon.
The interest for photography started when I began travelling. In 2009 I was planning a trip to Peru and it was important to document the journey, to record the experience. Although the country landscape was truly magnificent it was the people who caught my attention, their life, their expressions, their faces. That trip was the starting point of a passion that lasts until today.
After that, I travelled the world (Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam,Tailand, Morocco, India, etc) always with a camera, always trying to record moments, places, but the most important to understand local people and their way of life.
For the past two years I have been focused on developing photographic stories in India, its cultural diversity and people’s way of life.
