ABOUT CARL THOMSON | FRENCH RIVIERA WEDDING & EVENT PHOTOGRAPHER

Professional Photographer Carl Thomson with his son Jules

My son Jules and I

Welcome! Iโ€™m an English photographer based in Cannes on the French Riviera, specialising in luxury weddings, events, and editorial photography. My work is guided by a love of people and storytellingโ€”capturing genuine moments with elegance, emotion, and a timeless aesthetic.

Over the years, my camera has taken me from intimate Riviera weddings to royal engagements. Iโ€™ve had the honour of photographing Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace, and Iโ€™ve covered high-profile events for the British government and leading figures including Emanuelle Macron, Prince Albert II of Monaco, Justin Trudeau, Harry & Meghan, Lachlan Murdoch, and Grant Cardone.

My fashion and weddingphotography has been published by Vogue Italia, and I was privileged to capture the wedding of David Beckhamโ€™s sisterโ€”an unforgettable celebration of style and emotion.

Whether youโ€™re planning a destination wedding, a private celebration, or an exclusive event, I bring professionalism, creativity, and a cinematic eye to every shootโ€”ensuring your story is captured beautifully and authentically.
