HOMEPAGE · Rosa Mancebo
Words, images, and the stories in between.
Multilingual creative working across translation, localisation, editorial writing, and photography for brands, publications, and storytelling-led projects.
On the desk
My name is Rosa Mancebo, and I have spent over 14 years working at the intersection of communications, content, translation, and visual storytelling. My background spans editorial writing, localisation, stakeholder communication, project coordination, and quality-focused content work, all grounded in a strong awareness of audience, nuance, and clarity.
I’m also building a growing portfolio as a writer and photographer, creating work that captures atmosphere, culture, and a strong sense of place. My approach is thoughtful and flexible, combining words and images to tell stories that feel engaging and immersive, always adapted to different formats and audiences.

What I do
A strong editorial sensibility for language, story, and image.

Writing

Photography
Atmospheric travel, surf, and underwater imagery shaped by place, light, movement, and the quiet details that often go unnoticed. Available for licensing from the archive or for commissioned projects.
