Artisan

In the annals of photography, the Fresson name stands as a beacon of unparalleled technique. Jean-François Fresson, the torchbearer of this legacy, embodies the continuation of a singular family art: the "Fresson Print". Born amidst an atelier where each print tells a tale, he witnessed his grandfather, Pierre, and later his father, Michel, craft this unmatched visual signature.

Yet, Jean-François is more than a mere custodian of tradition. With his distinct artistic flair, he has modernised the atelier while safeguarding its core essence. Every piece emerging from its confines is a meld of technique and emotion, drawing photography's luminaries to the unique warmth of the Fresson Print.

Under his stewardship, the Fresson Atelier has transformed into a nexus of artistic dialogue, where the magic of handcrafted printing meets contemporary innovation. With Jean-François at the helm, photography transcends the image, becoming an everlasting emotion.
