A mobile camera mounting device suitable for use within a vehicle for filming activities exterior to the vehicle. The mount, using two suction cups, attaches to the windshield and is secured thereto. The suction cups are attached via swivel blocks to the camera mount. The camera attaches to a horizontal member and is used to record images exterior to the vehicle. In the preferred embodiment, a brace member extends from the horizontal member holding the camera to the windshield or other suitable bracing point. This brace member provides a significant amount of stabilizing since the mount now is secured by three different points.
