My name is Fernando Trujillo and I am a licensed Aerial Cinematographer who specializes in FPV. I also produce films and content for businesses and brands. I love to shoot documentaries to highlight topics and stories that I find interesting. I always look at ways to portray the story in a way that's impactful In 2022 I shot a documentary in Hawai’i and finished work with the Golden West Casino I do travel quite a bit, which means I am open to flying out anywhere with enough anticipation. I would prefer to create long-term business relationships as my best creative work comes from understanding the clients vision as it grows.
