Gabriel Bartolo - Photographer with Passion
Hello, I'm Gabriel Bartolo, 33 years old, born in Toronto, Canada. My life has been characterized by movement - I've lived in various countries, including Canada, Germany, Malta, and Morocco. I spent most of my youth in Hesse, where I went to school and discovered my creative side.
I'm a quiet, creative person with a good eye and ear for details. Art has been a part of my life since childhood - whether through drawing, crafts, or my enthusiasm for music. Besides photography, my heart beats for ice hockey, which always excites me with its dynamics and passion. I believe in harmonious coexistence, in sympathy, understanding, and that there's a special beauty in nature and people that's worth capturing.
My Path to Photography
Photography was, in a way, laid in my cradle. My father is a photographer, so I was surrounded by cameras, shoots, and the art of seeing from an early age. I often stood in front of the camera myself until I finally changed perspective and began to discover the world through my own lens. Photography became not only my passion but also a way to strengthen the close bond with my father - through working together, learning together, and exchanging creative ideas.
I initially built my knowledge by working with my father and later refined it with a one-year training at the Johannesberg School in Heidelberg. But for me, photography is a constant learning process - with every shoot, with every experiment with light and composition, I discover new facets of this craft.
My Work as a Photographer
For me, photography is about making the beauty of life and nature visible - capturing moments that convey emotions and show people things they might not have perceived themselves. I love capturing people in their naturalness and telling their stories in atmospheric images. At the same time, I'm fascinated by product photography because here I can work specifically with light, perspectives, and setups to present a product exactly as desired.
In my work, I place great importance on honesty and open, friendly collaboration. I prepare intensively for every shoot - whether by exploring locations or testing different lighting conditions. My goal is to implement my clients' vision in the best possible way and to create images that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also meaningful.
If you're looking for a photographer who works with passion, creativity, and a trained eye, then I look forward to working with you.
