Smartphone Night Photography Enthusiast & Founder of IncrivelXVinicius Sanches is a passionate smartphone photographer who has spent years proving that you don't need an expensive camera to capture breathtaking images after dark. Born with a natural curiosity for technology and a deep love for visual storytelling, Vinicius discovered his passion for night photography almost by accident — one evening, standing on a city street, phone in hand, completely mesmerized by the way artificial lights danced across wet pavement. That moment changed everything. What started as a personal obsession quickly became a mission. Vinicius realized that millions of people were carrying powerful cameras in their pockets every single day, yet had no idea how to unlock their true potential after the sun went down. Blurry shots, grainy images, and washed-out colors were robbing everyday people of memories and moments that deserved to be captured beautifully. So he decided to do something about it. With years of hands-on experience shooting city streets, starry skies, neon-lit alleyways, and creative night portraits — all with nothing but a smartphone — Vinicius built IncrivelX as the resource he wished had existed when he was just starting out. A place with no confusing jargon, no assumptions, and no gatekeeping. Just honest, practical, beginner-friendly guidance that actually gets results. Vinicius has tested dozens of smartphones from every major brand, explored dark sky locations across multiple states, and spent countless nights experimenting with settings, compositions, and editing techniques so that his readers don't have to start from scratch. Every article on IncrivelX comes from real experience, real mistakes, and real lessons learned in the field. When he's not out shooting at midnight or writing in-depth guides for the IncrivelX community, Vinicius can be found exploring new cities with his phone always within reach, looking for the perfect shot hiding in the shadows. His philosophy is simple: the best camera is the one you already have — you just need to learn how to use it in the dark.
