Anatol Gottfried
Germany - Spain - South Africa
Anatol Gottfried’s lifestyle and automotive photography fuses authenticity, energy, and narrative—turning movement and attitude into cohesive visual stories.
In his recent collaboration with SEAT and catorce14, he brings this approach to 'Rollin’ Young', a campaign built around a mindset rather than an age group. Skaters, friends, and cars share the same restless energy: always rolling, always looking forward. The wide-angle lens pulls viewers into the action, stretching the perspective and transforming urban corners into stages of style and confidence. The visual language nods to raw skate videos while refining them for contemporary automotive storytelling.
Blending fashion, lifestyle, and mobility, the imagery feels spontaneous yet tightly composed—where SEAT and street culture coexist in one fluid narrative. A bold fusion of youthfulness and motion, Rollin’ Young underlines Anatol’s ability to shape brands through attitude-driven visuals.

Anatol Gottfried
Germany - Spain - South Africa
Anatol Gottfried’s work centers on people, place, and brand truth. His two new series show how he translates strategy into images that feel lived‑in and look premium, without overstatement.
For Coca‑Cola, Anatol partnered with Studio X and Hogarth Madrid to speak to adults who value quality time and considered choices. The brief: "Me‑Time” — meals as small, daily celebrations. He designed frames that honor the ritual: restrained pacing, tactile details, and clear product context. The product reads as a natural companion, not a prop — calm confidence and appetite‑forward lifestyle that aligns promise with everyday authenticity.
In Seoul, engaged by Cheil, Anatol shot exclusively on pre‑release Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 and Fold7 devices — no retouch, no AI, straight from the phone. The results showcase real‑world capability; the work now anchors photo galleries on the new phones worldwide.
Anatol's method is consistent: people first, product true. He earns trust, follows the place´s rhythm, and shapes light to serve the story. Clear, readable frames help brands communicate fast across channels. Based between Cape Town, Barcelona, and Berlin, he delivers honest images that move the brand.
