The Wiitch Plant group, a collective of visionary women entrepreneurs from São Paulo's north coast, recently honored photographer and entrepreneur Suelen Dayana Nunes Amaral dos Santos for her impactful work in inclusive photography. This initiative, focused on ecological and charitable projects, cultivates a robust network of support and innovation among local businesswomen, aiming to create positive community and environmental change.

Pioneering Inclusive Photography in Vale do Paraíba

Suelen, alongside her husband Elison Lopes, established Família Lopes Fotografia in 2014. The company quickly became a reference in the Vale do Paraíba region, particularly for its specialized, humanized approach to photographing children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (TEA). Over the past decade, Suelen developed a unique methodology, meticulously adapting each session to meet individual children's needs, thereby offering hundreds of families a truly welcoming experience. "Our purpose has always been to make every family feel understood and respected," Suelen affirmed. "Photography extends far beyond merely capturing a moment; it can strengthen bonds, offer comfort, and truly value individual stories."

Expanding Reach and Social Commitment

Her dedication to inclusive photography has garnered significant recognition throughout her career, including industry awards, participation in exhibitions, and appearances on television. Suelen's work also reached beyond the Vale do Paraíba, photographing nationally recognized personalities in the state capital. To her credit, she was invited to serve as a juror for the first photography contest held in the Vale do Paraíba region. Furthermore, Suelen contributed to one of São Paulo's inaugural podcasts exclusively for photographers, sharing insights on entrepreneurship and inclusion. Her social commitment extends to co-organizing the 2nd Caminhada TEA, an event dedicated to raising awareness about Autism Spectrum Disorder and supporting atypical families. Iago França of Wiitch Plant underscored, "Suelen's journey illustrates how purpose, dedication, and innovation genuinely transform lives and inspire others."

Suelen Dayana, now a specialist, speaker, mentor, and television presenter, continues to broaden her professional scope, steadfast in her core mission: leveraging entrepreneurship as a powerful tool for inclusion, acceptance, and social transformation.
