Hello!
I'm Nina Vallado - a documentary filmmaker and film editor based in SW Washington. From an early age, I had a camera in my hands and began telling stories. I pursued a degree in filmmaking and graduated with BFA in Documentary Film from Andrews University. I found my niche behind the computer screen in post production.
Currently, I am in production for my next personal narrative documentary, Wives' Tales. Following the women in my family as we explore what family looks like in the context of hidden secrets.
When I'm not editing, writing, filming or working, you can find me bingeing British crime dramas or searching for tasty treats at a local bakery.
