Hi, I’m Andres!
I'm Andres Aponte, a cinematographer and camera operator based in Florida.
Over the past decade, I've worked across commercials, television, documentary series, music videos, and feature films, collaborating with brands, artists, and production companies to create work that feels honest, cinematic, and purposeful. My experience includes DP and operator roles in projects with brands and names like Prime Video, Netflix, WWE, BET+, USAA, the band A Day To Remember, Magnolia Park, Bone Crew, John Cena, The Undertaker, Nick Carter, Dennis Rodman, among others.
Whether I'm leading the visual direction of a project or operating camera as part of a larger team, my focus is the same: finding the strongest way to tell the story and executing it with intention. That’s why I created Ripe Mango.
About my personal life: I am 34 years old, my 2 kids Oliver and Eva and my wife Kassandra who I adore, and our 2 dogs Zelda & Leia. We enjoy fitness, boating on the (available) weekends, and BBQs/sports are a big part our house!
