Olivier Venturini started out as a PA and used his first paycheck to buy a vintage Beaulieu 4008 — a Super 8 camera that looked like a laser gun and felt like destiny. He shot a few reels for fun, and next thing he knew, he was on a plane to the U.S. to shoot a campaign for Westin Hotels.
Since then, Olivier’s work has taken him across continents, through every format you can load film into, and deep into the world of fashion and beauty. He’s collaborated with top models, celebrities, and global brands, always chasing that perfect mix of light, movement, and magic. His sets run on precision, instinct, and music — with just enough chaos to keep things interesting.
When he’s not surrounded by glam squads and location scouts, you’ll find him off the grid on a solo ski trek, happiest when the only sound is the wind in the trees.
Born in Marseille, Corsican by blood, shaped by years between LA and London, Olivier is now based in France. He still regrets selling that first 4008 for a sleeker, “better” camera. Lesson learned: don’t trade soul for specs.
With years behind the lens and a deep love for storytelling, Olivier never likes a comfort zone and brings style, emotion, and a human touch to everything he shoots — from global campaigns to tiny moments that make it all feel real.
