Manolo Mosquera

I started in film in 2014, training in digital cinematography and post-production before spending years behind the camera as a technician and motion control operator at EFD, one of Latin America's largest equipment rental houses. Since then I've worked as a 2nd AC, 1st AC, drone operator, Russian Arm operator, camera operator, editor, and colorist — on commercials, documentaries, television series, and feature films.

In 2017 I shot timelapse photography across Mexico — the first time I pointed a camera at the sky and waited. I now work as a director of photography based in Mexico City, and these prints are where that same patience for long exposures meets a lifelong habit of looking up.

I own and travel with my own camera, lens, and drone kit — no rental-house lead time, which keeps smaller productions faster and leaner to book.
