Gabor Baumgarten - About Me, © Lukas König

I'm a freelance cinematographer and photographer based in Cologne, specializing in creating emotionally compelling visuals — both moving and still. With over six years of experience in cinematography for commercials, films, and music videos, I bring a keen eye for storytelling and a deep understanding of light, movement, and composition.

Beyond cinematography, I also offer event photography, capturing dynamic moments at sport events, concerts, and other live performances.

MY JOURNEY

Raised in Berlin, my passion for visual storytelling took shape while studying Motion Pictures at h_da Darmstadt. During this time, I gained hands-on experience as an assistant camera operator (AC) and lighting electrician, refining my technical expertise on professional film sets. In 2024, I moved to Cologne to expand my creative collaborations and take on new, exciting projects.

MY APPROACH

I believe in the power of visuals to connect audiences with compelling narratives. My style is expressive, cinematic, and immersive, always tailored to the unique needs of each project. Whether working on a commercial, a music video, or a live event, I prioritize honest communication, creative flexibility, and a commitment to delivering impactful results.
