Christian Lartillot

Paris

"Catherine Deneuve said, 'What matters for the actor is his personality, his presence'. That quote sums up quite well what I search in photography and film. What interests me in athletes or artists is to show their presence and capture their human singularity. Sweat, blood and tears is my motto: the full range of movement and emotions."

Christian has worked for publications such as L'Équipe, L'Équipe Mag, Sport & Style, France Football, Les Inrockuptibles, Vogue, Madame Figaro, Télérama, Grazia, Glamour and Athletica.

And he has collaborated with brands and organisations like Gucci, Armani, Prada, Fendi, Millet Mountain Group, On Running, Asics, Hermès, Dior, Givenchy, Repetto, Opéra National de Paris, Ministère de Ville, Fédération Française de Gymnastique, What Dance Can Do project.
