Aurélien Mahot Photographe

As a professional photographer based in Saint-Herblain, I have made professional portraiture the core of my practice. With over 15 years of experience working with companies, institutions and communication teams, I support employees and leaders in producing images that genuinely reflect their personality and the identity of their organization. My approach sits between lifestyle portraiture — natural, in a work context — and institutional portraiture — sober, effective and studio-based. On site, I use a battery-powered mobile studio and neutral backdrops (white, grey, black) to ensure a professional, consistent look. Outdoors or in your premises, I favour ambient light for authentic, relaxed portraits suited to digital uses (LinkedIn, website, CV) as well as print materials (magazines, annual reports). What sets me apart is my method and the way I work with people. Before each session we define the brief together to align the final images with your communication strategy. During the shoot, I provide real-time image preview on a computer and can name files on the spot (firstname.lastname) to simplify integration into your directories or staff listings. Images are carefully edited and delivered via a download link within 48 hours; a private gallery can be provided for internal sharing. I also pay close attention to usage rights: every assignment includes a tailored rights transfer suited to your internal and external communication. Whether you want to modernize your staff directory, harmonize team portraits for an institutional website, or obtain a LinkedIn photo that truly represents you, I put my expertise at the service of a professional, straightforward and effective result. Based in Saint-Herblain and working across the Nantes region, I travel as needed to ensure comfort and efficiency on the day. If you are looking for a photographer specialised in professional portraiture, focused on people and the real uses of images, please get in touch — I would be pleased to discuss your project.
