Born in the early 80's in the East of France, Antoine mainly takes pictures of people, personalities more or less known for the press and the communication. He is a founding member of Mirage Collectif. In 2005, as a sociology student, he decided to take an interest in the context of film production in West Africa. It was at this time that he made his first portraits. He then abandoned his studies to devote himself fully to photography and gradually made his mark in the press, notably for the newspaper Metro, which offered him the chance to take portraits during the Cannes Film Festival. Since then, he has worked for numerous French and international publications, including Le Monde, L'Express, Le Parisien Magazine, Les Echos, The Wall Street Journal, The Australian Financial Review, Le Temps, Financial Times, and many others. He also lends his eye to companies, brands and their communication agencies, whether to illustrate annual reports or to carry out advertising campaigns.

Eli Meir Kaplan is a documentary-inspired lifestyle commercial photographer and director who became interested in visual media after his parents brought home an early black and white video camera when he was four years-old. Eli's first of many videos on the camera was a stop-motion battle between He-Man and Skeletor. A Batman and Robin caper soon followed. Eli’s longstanding interest in visual storytelling and meeting people from different backgrounds led him to documentary photography. He draws from that experience to capture genuine, spontaneous, and intimate moments and emotionally compelling storytelling in the commercial photography and video production he does today. Eli Meir Kaplan Stills + Motion offers full pre-production, production, and post-production commercial photography and video services with a roster of valued and trusted team members.

I have been shooting commercial action and lifestyle photography for over 25 years now working in some of the world's finest locations, from fashion shoots on the glaciers of Switzerland to fly fishing in the mangroves of Cuba. I spent the 90’s living and snowboarding in the mountains of Europe and New Zealand cramming 16 ski season into 10 years. Moving back to the UK in 2000 to Shropshire with my wife, four kids and two dogs. From here I am ideally close to the mountains of North Wales and the Lake District but with London, Scotland and the Alps being within easy reach. I have worked for many corporations over the years large and small shooting advertising, editorial and digital content. I strive to keep in budget and on brief with every shoot whilst still keeping creativity at the forefront of everything, always pushing to exceed clients expectations. I work with some fantastic producers and have a wealth of location and logistical solutions for pretty much any situation. When it comes to casting I have contacts with some of the worlds finest athletes and olympians to get you the best talent possible for your project.
Some like to take the easy road, others prefer the path less travelled. I am a fan of the latter - I thrive on challenge, detail, and problem solving. It’s that passion that makes me crave the right shot, right set, and most mouth-watering styling. Food photography is not a simple path from idea to execution - it’s an exploration and often a collaboration. When I first began to explore this type of work I knew it would make for an epic creative journey from my first attempts at lighting, to the way I continue to push myself creatively today. I am always exploring and I don’t think I’ll ever stop learning. When I’m not in the kitchen or the studio you’ll find me happily collecting my share of sand and dirt out on the mountain bike trails in Central Florida. To me there is no better feeling than the rush you get from a job well done...except maybe the rush of rolling along a beautifully flowing trail with some happy jumps and berms in a beautiful wooded setting.
