Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro (Lisbon, Portugal, April 4th, 1979) is a Portuguese photojournalist who has been living in Macau for the past 13 years.
His closest family has no artistic tradition. Thus, can it be justified that he only truly came into the world of photography by the age of 18. He knows many Portuguese photographers of the most diverse fields and continues to learn with them. After four years studying Geological Engineering, he reached the conclusion that his interests were elsewhere and enrolled in the Communication Sciences degree, Journalism variant, in the Universidade Autónoma de Lisboa - a degree he completed in 2005.

He also carried out photographic works for various companies. Between 2004 and 2010 he was, in Portugal, the official photographer of the Brazilian singer Daniela Mercury.
Winner of a number of awards during his career, Gonçalo Lobo Pinheiro has also had a number of exhibitions, in his own name and collectively. Published in 2015, "Macau 5.0 | 澳門 5.0 | Macao 5.0" is his first book of photography. In 2019, he presented "Myanmar: o retrato de um povo". In 2021, he presents two books: "Desvelo • 關愛 • Zeal", published in Macao, and “Tonle Sap”, launch in Brazil.
Having arrived in Macau, he joined the Hoje Macau newspaper, where he worked as writer and editor-in-charge between 2010 and 2014. He was photography director of Culture Guide and was the photography coordinator of Macau magazine, portuguese version, between 2011 and 2021.
