// WorldwideSuperyacht photographer, French Riviera.
Cannes, Antibes, Saint Tropez and Monaco. Based here, which means a berth that frees up on Thursday can be shot on Thursday.

Between April and October more large yachts sit within forty kilometres of Antibes than anywhere else in Europe. That changes the economics of photography completely. Elsewhere a broker pays for a photographer to travel; here the boats are already alongside, and the only thing that matters is whether somebody can be there on the day a berth and a crew happen to be free.
That day is usually short notice. A captain calls on Tuesday because the owner disembarks Wednesday and the next charter boards Saturday. I live on this coast, so that call is a drive rather than a flight, and the yacht gets photographed in the gap instead of waiting for the next window in three weeks.

The brief
What the images are for: a sale, a charter season or the yard. That decides everything else.
Aboard
Half a day to a day, in the order the crew can live with. I bring almost nothing with me.
Delivery
Edited, cropped for every portal, position data stripped out of every file.
A berth free this week?
