Back to original languageAbout Quentin
Portrait photographer for 17 years, I create images that reveal the personality of my subjects. My goal is to create impactful and timeless shots.
My specialty: B&W portraiture with sculpted lighting, designed to last.
Whether it's a corporate headshot, a series for a creative agency, or an artistic portrait, each session is designed with the same level of rigor: careful lighting, precise posing direction, meticulous retouching.
Trained at ETPA (higher photography school), I developed a unique eye for portraiture that earned me international recognition as early as 2011 (Shape series selected on Behance, Photography category).
I work both in the studio with flash (Godox, parabolic softbox) and with natural light. Each deliverable is retouched by hand, never mass-processed.
What I bring:
▸ An eye trained for 17 years on portraiture
▸ A coherent, professional, immediately usable final rendering
▸ Smooth collaboration: brief, shooting, retouching, delivery, and follow-up
Based in Fontainebleau (Seine-et-Marne), I work in Paris, all of Île-de-France, and travel throughout France on quote.
