Back to original languageAbout Raphaël
I am a photographer and director based in Ault, in maritime Picardy, and in Paris.
My work primarily focuses on architectural photography, industrial photography, documentary photography, and reportage.
I count Enedis, EDF, RTE, SNCF, Aluminium Dunkerque, and Bouygues Immobilier among my clients.
I also produce video reports, documentaries, and corporate videos.
In parallel to my work as a photographer, I collaborate with other photographers or creative studios as a lighting director. I then create the necessary lighting to enhance the photographed products.
In this capacity, I have been responsible for the lighting of all SISLEY Paris campaigns since 2020 and have worked on shoots for other cosmetic brands such as Dior, Givenchy, Armani, or for alcohol and spirits brands like Dom Pérignon, Martell, or Louis XIII.
My rich experience, both as a director and camera operator, as well as my role as a lighting director on photo shoots, allows me to act as a director of photography on various projects, from documentaries to fiction, including music videos.
