Guillaume Koessler - Photographe Arles

Based in Arles since 2019, Guillaume Koessler offers a rare and highly personal approach to professional portrait photography. Passionate about film-based processes and darkroom work, he treats each portrait as a singular object—born from observation, conversation and a careful artisanal gesture. His practice favors authenticity: the goal is to reveal expression and personality rather than impose an artifice. Why choose Guillaume for your professional photo? He combines technical expertise with human sensitivity. As a specialist portrait photographer, he works with analog techniques and handmade prints that deliver a presence and depth difficult to achieve with digital alone. Whether you need a LinkedIn profile picture, a portrait for your CV or a restrained image for professional use, his work emphasizes sobriety, clarity of the gaze and accurate contrast. His mobile studio, set up near the amphitheatre in front of the Couvent des Cordeliers, provides an intimate yet relaxed setting. The flow of a session is simple and convivial: an initial discussion to understand your needs, a calm approach to build confidence, then the portrait shoot carried out with constant attention to respect and naturalness. For clients who want a printed, artisanal result, Guillaume sometimes uses traditional processes—baryta prints, lith prints, cyanotypes or glass plate techniques—options that give the image a unique material quality. Working with him means choosing a photographer who considers every portrait as a meeting. He prioritises listening, patience and human exchange to produce images that truly reflect you and inspire confidence in recruiters or colleagues. His local reputation and the high quality of his handmade prints make these portraits enduring pieces, well suited to professional requirements while remaining artistic. If you are looking for a professional photo in Arles that stands out—authentic, crafted with film techniques and true to your personality—Guillaume Koessler is a natural choice.
