dance connection | portrait of guilherme alves

Since finishing the dance conservatory of dance, Guilherme lives abroad. First Zurich, then Helsinki and now Zagreb, where he is the first dancer of the HNK since 2011. The list of performances is long, diverse and impressive. He told me he misses his family

It was Helsinki which changed his life, as there he met his wife, a ballerina, and they are in a very special position as she is a first ballerina at the HNK as well and he explained me they are in a very lucky situation, both being able to chase their dreams in the same city.

Guilherme was nominated by Simon Yoshida because they are good friends and spend quite some time together.

We chatted nicely during the session, sometimes talk just flows, and I really enjoyed it. So much, that in the end I forgot to take a picture with his sunglasses, something I wanted as soon as he arrived with them. I packed half of my gear already when Guilherme asked me, “what about the sunglasses?”

We quickly did some shots, and they just came out perfect. It must be, as he has them since his wedding …
