PHOTOGRAPHER

MAURICIO CANDELA

WHO IS CANDELA?

I have over 25 years of experience in the advertising industry, starting my career on the agency side as an Art Director and later as a Creative Director. I built my career in the U.S., with a strong Latin perspective that continues to shape my work.

After many years in advertising, I transitioned into production, focusing on directing and photography. That shift allowed me to bring everything I learned on the agency side into my work on set.

Because of that background, I understand how agencies think and what clients need. I don’t just execute—I collaborate, bring solutions, and contribute creatively to the process. My goal is to create strong work while giving clients and agencies confidence and peace of mind.

DIRECTOR
OF
PHOTOGRAPHY

ANGEL BARRISBETA

RELEVANT WORK

I highly recommend Angel. I’ve had the opportunity to work with him, and beyond being a great person, he is an outstanding professional.

What really sets him apart as a Director of Photography is his range. He can deliver highly polished, cinematic visuals for advertising, while also shifting seamlessly into a more documentary, authentic style when the project calls for it.

That versatility makes him a strong creative partner and a great asset on any production.

POST
PRODUCTION

ESTUDIO FE

RELEVANT WORK

Estudio Fe offers a solid, hands-on post-production service with a comprehensive view of the entire process.

 

With 20 years in the market, we have specialized in understanding what both the director and the client want, as well as what each project needs to reach its best version. We know how important editing, color, finishing, and, above all, a clear and well-organized workflow are to ensure that everything runs efficiently.

 

Because we also produce, we understand the process as a whole and know that strong post-production does not just solve problems — it enhances the final result.

VIDEO /// POST-PRODUCTION PROCESS

  • The post-production process will be collaborative and transparent

  • Agency and client will be involved throughout the entire process

  • Up to three rounds of revisions are anticipated

  • Feedback will be incorporated to achieve the strongest possible final piece

  • All post-production will be handled remotely (non in-person)

STILLS /// RETOUCHING PROCESS

  • Photo retouching will begin with cosmetic adjustments, including color balance, skin tones, contrast, and overall image refinement

  • Once aligned with the agency on the desired look, we will move into color grading and visual style—whether leaning toward a more advertising-driven or a more natural, documentary feel

  • Image compositing is anticipated for select images and is included in the scope

  • This may involve adding, removing, or replacing elements as needed

  • Candela and his team are fully equipped and experienced in executing this level of retouching and compositing work
