Teresa Freitas (Teresa C. Freitas) is a Portuguese photographer and colourist, born in 1990 in Lisbon. She grew up in Cascais, by the sea near Lisbon, and studied at the Faculty of Fine Arts in Lisbon, with a degree in Multimedia Art (2013) and a master's in Design and New Media (2015).
She came to photography through Instagram and has worked full time as a photographer since 2018, including for international brands. Her pictures mix soft pastel tones with brighter accents and often feel slightly detached from reality. In 2022 she had her first solo exhibition, in Seoul, and Setanta Books published 014 - Teresa Freitas, a sequence of her photographs ordered by colour. She also teaches colour in photography through courses and workshops.
