The perfect photograph is the one that conveys emotion
When one door Closes, a window opens. Fifteen years ago, he suffered an injury that prevented him from skating. Not wanting to stay home, he picked up his father's camera and started taking pictures. One event led to another, then came photography studies, and soon, he established himself as a professional. For Rúben Claudino, the perfect photograph is one that conveys emotion, something far beyond the technique of both the photographer and the subject. He will be present at the PUSH Skate Festival.

I was a skater, but after getting injured, I didn’t want to be left out of the group. So, I picked up my father’s camera and started taking pictures. I instantly fell in love with it. That was 15 years ago. Then, when I had the opportunity to photograph an event, I realized that skate photography was what I wanted to do for a living. I studied photography at ArCo, and today I work for the brand Ementa.
Photography has gone through a 'crash' with the rise of video. There are more photographers now, and we also need to adapt more quickly to new techniques. However, I still like to capture the surrounding atmosphere as well. Skateboarding today is also more technical. Photographers and videographers have been working more closely together, and there’s an increasing openness in the scene. We help skaters connect with more brands, and with more photographers, we can expand skate culture.
Skater Gabriel Ribeiro
It's one that not only showcases the technical level of a trick but also evokes emotion. I want to look at a photo 10 years from now and remember my connection with that skateboarder, where the photo was taken, and the whole story behind that moment.
Skater Madu Teixeira
I’m super excited! I’ve been waiting for an event like this for a long time. In the past, there was something similar organized by Surge magazine, but I feel like Portuguese skateboarding has become very fragmented in recent years. This festival will be important for bringing the community back together and helping to grow the culture. I’m really looking forward to it!
