Born in Copiapó, Chile, and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, Jose brings a deep multicultural perspective shaped by over two decades in the U.S. and extensive international travel. Getting to work with very diverse backgrounds, adapt seamlessly to any environment, and build strong relationships with crews and talent from around the world have uniquely enabled him to step into high demanding scenarios and deliver above expectations.

For over a decade, Jose has worked across the camera department as a Director of Photography, Camera Operator, Gimbal Operator, and Focus Puller. From the Ecuadorian Amazon and Colombian Pacific Coast to the White House, his work spans documentary, commercial, and broadcast productions—including filming the President of the United States and multiple First Ladies, alongside campaigns for leading global brands and major broadcast and streaming networks.

As a proud member of IATSE Local 600, Jose combines technical expertise with creative vision. He is detail-oriented, collaborative, and always exploring innovative ways to bring his clients’ ideas to life.
