AN ENGLISH PHOTOGRAPHER IN PARIS
Hi, I'm Brett, an English professional photographer based in Paris. I specialise in Corporate, Commercial & Documentary Photography.
Working In both France and Europe, for the past 10+ years I have provided a full range of photography services to predominantly large global businesses.
In addition to being a native English speaking photographer, I also speak French, German and Spanish, so I’m well-adapted to photographing in international environments.
Other attributes I bring to the table include an advanced understanding of both post-production and visual marketing needs (thanks to former experience as an advertising and communications designer); the latest professional camera equipment; an abundance of energy and enthusiasm; and, ultimately, an unparalleled level of service.
PARIS PHOTOGRAPHY SERVICES
It's far from just in Fine Art and Tourism that Photography and Paris are synonymous; for a company photographer, the French capital together with the Île-de-France region is arguably the main European hub for business and commercial events and the preferred backdrop for the the corporate identity of the largest international enterprises. As both a creative professional and (naturalised) French citizen and Parisian that has enjoyed 20+ years of international experience, I can attest that few other cities will host such an annual array of business occasions, exhibitions, sports events and global gatherings, whilst providing such ideal architecture and venues as a setting for promotional imagery.
CORPORATE PHOTOGRAPHY
As a corporate photographer, my assignments are split into two main categories, depending on whether I am promoting a business within the context of an event it is hosting or by means of its day-to-day operations. Corporate event photography covers large scale conferences, networking opportunities, workshops (or breakout sessions) and team building events, but also includes more exclusive occasions such as closed business meetings and meet-and-greets. In all cases, it's about showing the company brand, its employees and its associates in the best possible light through dynamic spontaneous media coverage. Corporate reportage comprises mainly corporate portraits, staged business shoots, and candid fly-on-the wall documentary, and can spotlight not only employees and teams, but also places of work and specific services. Shoots can take place on the company premises, at an associate or hired location, or against the universal backdrop of a photography studio.
COMMERCIAL PHOTOGRAPHY
As a commercial photographer, I create images of products, services, people, events and locations across sectors such as retail, manufacturing, technology and entertainment, through both documentary and staged photography. Commercial reportage can take place within the context of an large scale event - namely exhibitions and tradeshows - or through documentary-style assignments focusing on capturing individuals or teams as they provide services and / or utilise appliances I am commissioned to promote within the context of their intended use. Commercial shoots can cover staged images of individuals, such as in studio portraits; products, such as in e-commerce photography; or teams as they recreate with my direction the service of the represented company.
DOCUMENTARY PHOTOGRAPHY
As a press photographer or photojournalist, I provide discreet professional documentaries of live events, good causes and political news to meet a variety of needs, from immediate online publications to the creation of comprehensive image catalogues. Genres can cover action photography, including sport reportage and performance documentary; event promotion, including festival and social photography; and protest photography.
PHOTOGRAPHY FOR PRIVATE CLIENTS
As a portrait and event photographer working predominantly for large enterprises, my private clients benefit from the same degree of quality and service as I afford to my high-level business clientele. My private portrait photography services include not only the always popular Paris photo shoot options, including lifestyle shoots for couples and surprise marriage proposals, catering to tourists and international visitors to the French capital, but local services aimed at Parisians, including studio headshots and natural light portraits taking against an abundance of alternative backdrops the city has to offer. In terms of private event photography in Paris, I'll capture lasting memories whatever the occasion, from private celebrations onboard a Seine river cruise boat to town hall weddings and wedding receptions.
