ABOUT
LAURA SCHÜSSEL

laura.schuessel@gmail.com

Hi there! I’m Laura, Directing DP and Editor based in Munich, Germany.

In my work, I explore hidden layers of the human subconscious, using symbolism and metaphors to to achieve a deep sense of authenticity. My goal is to explore the complexity of human emotions through the art of film.

I'm drawn to stories that feel honest. Whether I'm working on a commercial, a short film or a personal project, my focus is always the same: creating images that connect with people on an emotional level.

For me, cinematography isn't about imposing a visual style—it's about finding the right language for each story. Sometimes that means embracing symmetry, graphic compositions and carefully crafted imagery. Other times it means staying close to people, allowing space for authenticity, spontaneity and quiet, intimate moments.

I believe the strongest images are the ones that feel true. I enjoy collaborating closely with directors, brands and artists to create films that are emotionally grounded, visually thoughtful and deeply human.

If you'd like to collaborate, I'd love to hear from you.
