I'm Philippe, a Los Angeles-based photographer and director. At my core, I am an incurable visual addict and the artisan of your image. Being born in Paris, growing up in 4 continents, speaking multiple languages, and having worked in journalism, fashion and commercial modeling, and luxury hotel management prior to my career in multimedia, I have my own my perspective on the world and I am gifted with so many creative tools. I have a bold and cinematic style that draws out the beauty and drama of all my subjects, and my eye for composition and keen sense of lighting bring my photography to life. In 2000, I launched the San Francisco-based JSP Group, a breakthrough company offering an array of high-end services including photography, videography, and in-house graphic design. Past clients include Celebrities, Sephora, Benefit Cosmetics, Vera Wang, The Ritz~Carlton, The Gansevoort Hotels, H2O+, Ubisoft, Gibson Guitars, Stanford University, Nvidia, Cisco, Kaiser Permanente, Cepheid Pharmaceuticals, Architectural Digest, US Government Agencies, etc... Beauty arises anywhere and imagination creates reality. From black and white films to classic and contemporary paintings, comic books, street art, and to a graceful person walking down the street... I am inspired by everything.
