location sound recording

professional location sound recording services

I am available for hire as a production sound mixer and location sound recordist for independent films, short films, narrative projects, and documentaries throughout McAllen, Texas and the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. My film credits include Manic, Eggnog Sugar Cookies & Misery, and other independent film productions where clean dialogue capture, consistent production audio, and efficient on-set sound workflows were essential.

I specialize in production sound recording, location sound mixing, boom operation, wireless lavalier microphone placement, and field audio mixing, working closely with directors, cinematographers, and assistant directors to ensure sound integrates seamlessly into the production process. My services are designed to support single-camera and multi-camera narrative shoots, providing professional on-location audio capture that meets film festival, broadcast, and streaming delivery standards.

Whether you’re producing a low-budget independent film, short narrative, or multi-day feature shoot, I offer reliable production sound services, including dialogue recording, on-set audio monitoring, slate-based syncing, and organized sound reports. I am available by day rate or project basis and serve filmmakers across McAllen, Pharr, Edinburg, and the greater Rio Grande Valley.

about me

I’m a McAllen, Texas–based videographer and location sound recordist with more than 25 years of experience telling real stories through video and sound across the Rio Grande Valley and South Texas. I started my career as a newspaper reporter, then worked in public broadcasting and public relations, where I learned the importance of accuracy, clear communication, and earning people’s trust. That background led me naturally into freelancing, where I now work with municipal governments, school districts, news organizations, nonprofits, corporations, ad agencies, and independent filmmakers. From event and press conference coverage to public service announcements, testimonial videos, and narrative film sound recording, I bring a journalist’s mindset, broadcast-quality production standards, and a calm, reliable presence on set. I offer hourly and day-rate services, and I take pride in making the process easy while delivering work clients can depend on.
