Hi, I’m Gabriel Lopez, a 21-year-old photographer and filmmaker originally from Réunion Island, currently based in Amsterdam. I’m passionate about film, philosophy, and documentary storytelling, and I’ve built experience across film production, photography, and leadership roles in student-run events. Having lived in over 9 countries has made me adaptable, curious, and resilient, and I value collaborative creativity as much as technical craft. I’m driven by pushing creative and ethical boundaries while keeping a disciplined, organized approach to work. I enjoy building partnerships, leading teams, and learning new techniques—from lighting and camera operation to editing and storytelling. I’m excited to contribute energy and perspective to collaborations, and I stay actively involved in volunteering and festival work around Amsterdam and beyond.
