Through precise and attentive observations, Pedro Rodrigues lends his pictures unusual perspectives. He is particularly interested in socio-critical themes. Born in the south of Portugal and raised in Saas-Fee, he embeds his roots and origins into his art throughout. His long-term projects focus on topics such as working conditions in the hotel industry, climate change in the Alps and the illegal trade in end-of-life vehicles. Pedro Rodrigues has been working as a freelance photographer since 2012; over time, he has expanded his work to include multimedia installations. His works have been exhibited nationally and internationally on several occasions.

In addition to his artistic work, Pedro Rodrigues Studio also realizes commercial projects for renowned clients at home and abroad.
