Croisette Sessions
Editorial walks along the Croisette with the Festival as a living backdrop.

Editorial Croisette sessions during the Cannes Film Festival — a walked portrait shoot along the Boulevard de la Croisette with the Festival as a living backdrop: palm trees, the Palais des Festivals stairs, the Martinez and Carlton facades, the Mediterranean horizon. Talent or brand portraits, solo or couple, daytime or sunset. Our accredited team works on foot or with a vehicle backup, in coordination with the Cannes municipal police on busy Festival days. Editorial style, no paparazzi distance — composed frames, natural light, gallery-grade output. Delivered within hours. Quote on demand, no public pricing.

About croisette sessions at Cannes.
What is a Croisette session at Cannes?
An editorial walk along the Boulevard de la Croisette during the Festival, capturing the talent or brand ambassador with the iconic Cannes landmarks behind — Palais des Festivals, palaces, beachfront.
When is the best time of day for a Croisette shoot?
Late afternoon to sunset (5pm-8pm during the Festival period) — soft light, palm-tree shadows, fewer crowds, and the press scrum is already at the Palais. Daytime works for editorial brand shoots.
Can we shoot on the Croisette during the Festival without authorization?
Standard editorial walks on the public sidewalk are allowed. For organized shoots involving setup, lighting or street closure, we file in advance with Cannes municipal authorities.
Do you cover yacht arrivals along the Croisette?
Yes — yacht tender arrivals at the Palais Beach jetty, Croisette beach landings, and editorial shoots aboard private yachts moored off the Croisette.
Can the session include a stop at the Palais des Festivals stairs?
Yes — the Palais stairs (Grand Théâtre Lumière) are accessible during daytime outside the red carpet windows. A stop there is the signature frame of any Cannes editorial walk.
How fast are the photos delivered after a Croisette session?
Curated edit within hours of the shoot. Full retouched gallery the next day.
What does a Croisette photography session cost?
No public pricing — depends on duration, locations and deliverables. Quote on demand within minutes.
