After several years studying film in Spain and The Netherlands, award-winning cinematographer Beatriz Delgado Mena settled down in the United Kingdom to focus on the film industry as a director of photography. Her work includes BFI-funded short films like House Party, Cuppa Chai and Octopus; BBC projects like BAFTA winner Quiet Life and The Pink Pill, and commercials for brands including Adidas, Asics, Google, Samsung and Santander Bank.

Based in London and Madrid, Beatriz explores the power of cinematography in fashion and film, developing a genuine ability to adjust her style to different visions and stories, bringing her unique sensibilities to bolden the narrative.

Her work aims to establish the strongest possible connection between the audience and moving imagery through emotion and method.
