ABOUT

Bolivian-born and U.S.-based, Nicolás Taborga is a cinematographer who has filmed everything from vintage Super 16mm and 35mm to the latest digital cameras — always chasing light, emotion, and the perfect frame across Latin and North America.

A storyteller at heart, he refined his craft at the prestigious Universidad del Cine in Buenos Aires, where he later taught cinematography. His work spans feature films, documentaries, music videos, and commercials, blending creative vision with technical precision.

His debut feature as DP, El Nombre de las Flores, earned international recognition — including Best Cinematography at FECIR (Chile) and the Special Jury Prize at Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival (Estonia) — praised for its poetic use of color, light, and atmosphere. He also earned Best Cinematography at the 48 Hour Film Project, as well as the Pasaje a Fílmico University Award and the Kodak Film School Competition for his S-16mm short UNO.
