I’m a Galician-born cinematographer and remote head operator based in Zürich, Switzerland.

Through my work I aim to create images that support and enhance the meaning of the story. I combine artistic vision with technical knowledge, particularly in optics and lens design. This lets me tailor tools and workflows precisely to the needs of each project so the technology reinforces the visual language instead of distracting from it.

My recent projects include the feature documentary 44 West (in production), the music video Schön (winner of a Silver EDI and a Special EDI for Production Design), and collaborations for brands such as Bank Julius Bär, Best Smile, Maxon, and Teko.

I participated in the American Society of Cinematographers’ Vision Mentorship Program (2022–2023) and am an active advocate for FLINTA equality within the Swiss film community.

For me, cinematography is not only about recording images but about shaping the world frame by frame.
