Hristo Lazarov

Private Contact

I am a freelance cinematographer based in Sofia, Bulgaria, working internationally across feature films, commercials, and documentary projects. My visual approach is grounded in heightened naturalism where authentic emotion, thoughtful composition, and cinematic lighting converge to support strong, story-driven imagery.

With a deep understanding of both narrative structure and the technical demands of production, I work closely with directors, producers, and creative teams to develop a cohesive visual language tailored to each project. I’m experienced in a wide range of production environments, from agile documentary units to large-scale commercial and narrative film sets.

Whether capturing intimate human moments or crafting visually complex sequences, I bring a calm, collaborative presence and a commitment to visual storytelling that resonates. Available worldwide as a director of photography.
