About me

Mei de Paula, pronounced like the month May but spelled differently, is a Photographer and Creative Director.

Born in Guangzhou, China, but raised in Portland, Oregon, Mei discovered her passion for photography at twelve years old. In high school, her passion deepened when she began learning Photoshop.

As a photographer and creative director, Mei dives into the nuances of body language, utilizing subtle gestures and expressions to unfold profound stories. Her work is inspired by the playfulness of fashion and storytelling.

Mei strives to create a vibrant atmosphere where everyone feels engaged, respected, and empowered. Collaboration is central to her process, allowing each project to highlight the unique essence of her subjects and capture the spontaneity of the moment.
