Fashion Photography on the French Riviera

Unlike other forms of photography, fashion photography isn’t about documenting action—it’s about distilling beauty, emotion, and artistry into a single frame. It’s been a true privilege to work in this world for so many years, collaborating with talented designers, models, and creative teams to bring powerful visual stories to life.

Every shoot is approached with fresh eyes, tailored specifically to the clothing, the people, and the location. Whether I’m photographing couture on the streets of Monaco, swimwear by the shores of Cannes, or editorial looks in Nice, I blend technical precision with a strong sense of narrative to create imagery that elevates the brand and resonates with its audience.

Based on the French Riviera, I specialise in high-end fashion photography, combining an editorial aesthetic with a cinematic flair—ideal for lookbooks, campaigns, magazines, and social media content.

“It was such a great experience to be photographed by Carl! Besides being -by far- the best pictures I have ever had, the overall process was great. From meeting Carl and talking about his ideas to the actual shooting. Carl picked two extraordinary locations and had in his mind the whole 'concept' and aesthetic of the photo shooting including make-up, dresses, props.”
