Children play joyfully outdoors on a sunny day, jumping and chasing large soap bubbles against a bright blue sky. The scene is full of movement and colour, with kids of different ages and backgrounds laughing and reaching for the bubbles on a lively waterfront plaza.

Eugenia Hanganu is a Lisbon-based street and portrait photographer and Nikon Europe Content Creator. Originally from Moldova, she pivoted from a PhD in geology to fully embrace photography, building a distinctive visual language rooted in light, soul, and authentic moments.

Her work, both on the streets of Lisbon and in intimate portraits, is deeply inspired by early-morning light, the textures of urban life, and the emotional resonance of everyday people. Through her lens, she tells candid, poetic stories that reveal the richness, vulnerability, and quiet beauty of ordinary life.

Eugenia also holds mentorships and teaches others to see and photograph with intention, combining technical mastery with heartfelt storytelling.
