Professional Photographer Carl Thomson with his son Jules

Myself and my beautiful son Jules

Guided by Emotion, Shaped by Experience

I’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 storytelling—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. I’ve had the honour of photographing Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace, and I’ve covered high-profile events for the British government and leading figures including Bill Gates, Justin Trudeau, Harry & Meghan, Lachlan Murdoch, and Grant Cardone.

My fashion photography has been published by Vogue Italia, and I was privileged to capture the wedding of David Beckham’s sister—an unforgettable celebration of style and emotion.

Whether you’re planning a destination wedding, a private celebration, or an exclusive event, I bring professionalism, creativity, and a cinematic eye to every shoot—ensuring your story is captured beautifully and authentically.
