About

Some of the background

Patrícia de Ferreira Malhão, known in the world of nature photography as missroofless, is a photographer, traveler, and visual storyteller deeply connected to the outdoors.

Graduated in Architecture and Tourism, she left city life behind to follow her true calling: capturing the beauty of wild, often overlooked places, and inspiring others to connect with nature through photography.

She is the creator of Oeste Selvagem Adventures, a project of photo expeditions and field workshops in some of the wildest corners of western Portugal — slow, intentional experiences designed for those who want to learn and feel, not just see.

Patrícia is also an official Geoguide at UNESCO's West Geopark and a photographer for Sea Shepherd Global, where she documents environmental action and marine conservation.

Her calm, immersive visual style has earned her the Great Award for Best Photography from National Geographic Portugal, for her work on the natural heritage of the Portuguese coastline.
