At MoonLAB Pictures, we tell stories that shift the lens.

Founded by Melisa Cardona, we are a film and photography company rooted in the vision of queer women of color — crafting work by, for and about us. Our mission is to reclaim narrative power and create images that reflect the truth, complexity, and beauty of our communities.

We believe storytelling is both art and revolution. Every frame is intentional — a study in emotion, light, and liberation. Through a cinematic and deeply personal approach, we explore what it means to see and be seen.

MoonLAB is more than a production company — it’s a space for experimentation, collaboration, and radical visibility. Here, stories that have been sidelined find center stage. Here, we make room for new light to rise.
