Gil Stunner

Gil Stunner is a New York-based photographer whose cinematic realism and raw emotional storytelling are gaining international recognition. Born in Lebanon and shaped by a lifelong fascination with machines and mechanics, he transforms the ordinary into the extraordinary through his lens.

Blending fine art with a filmmaker's eye, Stunner bridges automotive culture, street life, and human emotion, crafting images that feel like stills from unwritten films.

His photographs pulse with authenticity, humor, and soulful realism, capturing design as emotion and motion as narrative.
Guided by his motto "From wrenches to lenses," he continues to blur the boundaries between art, motion, and story.

From Wrenches to Lenses
Self-taught artist and lifelong creative, my education comes from hands-on craftsmanship, restoration, and countless hours behind the lens. Through humanitarian missions, cultural storytelling, and fine art projects, I’ve honed a craft rooted in real-world experience rather than classrooms.
