Maya Laurent
Director of Photography
I’ve got a camera. Let’s shoot something.
Short bio
I’m a director of photography and photographer based in Barcelona. I work on short films, fashion films and photo shoots, helping teams plan and shoot their projects from start to finish.
Who I am
I started in photography before moving into film. I enjoy working with small crews and being involved early, when we can talk through the idea and work out how to shoot it. I’m organised, comfortable taking the lead on camera and lighting, and happy to work with people making their first project as well as those with more experience.
Creative approach
Creative focus
I work with the director to plan the lighting, framing and camera movement around the story. Before a shoot, I scout locations, test the setup and put together a shot list. On set, I keep the images consistent and adapt the plan to the time and equipment we have.
Collaborator preferences
Actors, stylists and filmmakers with an idea they want to try. You don’t need a big crew or loads of experience. Just tell me what you’re planning, when you’re free and what you need help with.
