Foreigner Studio is a creative studio crafting visual stories for brands, people, and boutique & luxury hospitality — rooted in culture, guided by intention, and shaped by exploration.

I’m Fábio Ribeiro, a Brazilian creative director, photographer, and filmmaker based in Valencia, Spain. Although Foreigner Studio officially came to life in 2023, it had been living in my heart for much longer. In 2011, at just 18, I left home for my first adventure outside Brazil — an experience that stayed with me and quietly shaped the way I see the world. In 2019, I took a bigger step and moved from Brazil to Budapest, Hungary, where I completed my studies as a civil engineer. Then, in 2020, during the pandemic, I decided to pursue what I had been carrying for years: the desire to create.

Foreigner Studio was born in 2023 from a simple belief: the places we explore, the experiences we live, the people we meet, the craft we develop, and the connections we build are small fragments that leave a lasting mark — shaping how we see the world and, ultimately, what we create.

When I moved to Madrid to study Communication and Audiovisual Production with a focus on digital storytelling and social media, that belief found its true form. Foreigner Studio became my way of translating culture, atmosphere, and identity into visuals with presence, taste, and meaning — helping brands and hotels tell stories that feel real, refined, and deeply connected to their world.
