Laurent Javoy

I am a freelance photographer and videographer based in Marcq-en-Barœul, specializing in professional portrait photography. Since 2020 I have been helping individuals and companies create images that clearly communicate their identity and values. Trained in communication and marketing, I pay close attention to the final use of each image: LinkedIn profile, CV, corporate website or internal communications. My approach focuses on authenticity. Rather than frozen poses, I prefer to create a relaxed, conversational atmosphere that helps reveal natural, confident expressions. Each session begins with a conversation to understand your profession, objectives and the image you want to project. This brief guides the choice of location (studio, workplace or nearby outdoor settings around Marcq-en-Barœul), lighting and framing style to achieve a portrait consistent with your communication needs. What sets me apart is the combination of visual sensitivity and marketing thinking. As a Master’s student in Communication – Marketing and while working alternately at Hello Lille, I adapt the images to their professional purpose: composition, color choices, mood and subtle retouching intended to strengthen impact without compromising authenticity. My goal is to deliver professional portraits that reassure, build trust and facilitate human and business connections. How I work: we start with an initial contact to define your needs, followed by an efficient session (simple preparation, confidence building, a variety of shots) and careful post-production. Retouching is designed to enhance while preserving character. I regularly collaborate with private clients, freelancers and corporate teams looking to modernize their image. In addition to portrait expertise, I offer occasional assignments in event photography, nature imagery and video production — always with a view to coherent visual support. If you’re looking for a professional portrait made locally in Marcq-en-Barœul with a human and strategic approach, get in touch — I’d be delighted to give your image renewed visibility.
