Gil Stunner

I photograph things that move fast and people who move slow. Sometimes both at once. Started wrenching as a mechanic, then lenses and cameras got involved, and suddenly I'm waking up at 4 am to shoot vintage racers tearing across New Jersey beaches, or wandering West African streets with Doctors here; everyone has better stories than mine.

My work's basically street photography that smells like gasoline, documentary style with a cinematic hangover. Raw, honest, and probably needs a shower.
Featured in Auto Heroes Magazine, made Photographize's Best 100 list, curated by SAATCHI ART & 1X, and somehow convinced galleries from New York to Paris that this counts as art.
My collector clients include people with way better taste than me. Born in Lebanon. Based in New York. Fluent in machines, motion, and making excuses for why I missed breakfast to catch the light.

From wrenches to lenses is my motto, somewhere between a film frame and a fever dream.
