Emmanuel Lakkari Cinematographer Paris-based · Available worldwide
I’m a cinematographer who believes the most powerful images are the ones that feel inspired. My work blends anamorphic soul, naturalistic light, and emotional camera movement—creating frames that don’t just show the story, they feel it.
From luxury campaigns with Chanel, Cartier, Guerlain, Dior to broadcast for TF1, Eurosport, M6, and narrative projects like the feature Article 22 (2023) and the multi-award-winning short 300 000 km/s—my goal is always the same on every project, same heartbeat: raw, rich, real.
