France
Franck Hamel is a food and lifestyle photographer based in Rennes (France).
He has always been passionate about the appearance of raw products, the magic of natural light and the alchemy of cooking. He loves to observe the products but also to cook them and appreciate their flavours. From this passion was born his specialisation in food photography.
He has collaborated with various French and international companies, and his photographs have illustrated advertising campaigns for brands such as Cheval Blanc, Disneyland, Laurent Perrier, Sturia, Potel et Chabot, Revol, Metro, Aoste and True.
In 2017, he collaborated with Notchup agency for the creation of the "Origin of Taste" packaging for Leclerc. This project was rewarded in 2018 with a Golden Pentaward in New York. In 2019, he was the official photographer of the International Festival of Culinary Photography.
He is represented by his agent Valérie Paumelle.
