Emmanuel Fradin
Paris
Emmanuel Fradin is an editorial and commercial photographer based in Paris, France. Emmanuel was born in 1977 in Saumur (Loire Valley), grew up in Rochefort/Mer torn between his two passions, music and photography, and he decided for the second as a career.
In 1997, he served during his military time in Paris at the Etablissement Cinematographique et Photographique des Armees. This job led him to work closely with the French government. For four years, he followed the prime minister, Lionel Jospin, in all his national and international trips as his official photographer, confronting himself to a wide range of situations and subjects. Rich from these experiences, he decided to go freelance in 2004 and has been multiplying collaborations with various agencies (Reuters, Gamma, Strates).
Since 2009, Emmanuel has worked alone and covers various stories on portraits, lifestyle, travel and food for international clients in a very personal style.
