Hi, I’m José Luis Salomón, a cinematographer with over two decades of experience shooting features, documentaries and television across Latin America and Europe. I thrive when collaborating with directors to shape a strong visual language, balancing lighting, framing and camera movement to serve the story. I work with a wide range of cameras and workflows, from high end-up cameras like Arri Alexa to Sony Venice or Red to mirroerless cameras, and I continually pursue training in post-production and color grading to deliver ready-to-screen material. Based in international environments, I bring adaptability, reliability and a passion for storytelling to every project.
