Photographer in Courchevel
As an experienced Courchevel photographer and videographer, I capture your outdoor adventures, ski experiences, and sporting achievements.
From the slopes to the snowpark, I create dynamic and immersive imagery that tells your story. Using professional telephoto lenses, action cameras, I follow your journey to deliver unique visuals that showcase your performance and passion for the mountains.
A photographer in Courchevel for your stay or special event
I am Olivier Mercier, a photographer and video filmmaker based in the Tarentaise Valley, near Courchevel, working professionally since 2011.
Specialized in ski and action sports photography and video, I capture your best moments and emotions on the slopes.
I also offer a wide range of services: sports reports, wedding photography, visual communication, portraits, and promotional videos.
Each project is handled with professionalism, creativity, and professional equipment tailored to your needs.
Based in the Tarentaise Valley, close to Courchevel 1850, Courchevel Village, and the Three Valleys, I regularly travel throughout Savoie.
A photographer in Courchevel
As a photographer in Courchevel, a region renowned for its strong sporting culture, I regularly have the opportunity to cover this type of event on the slopes of Méribel, the 3 Valleys ski area, or along the Isère River during the summer season.
I work with two Sony cameras to ensure reliability, responsiveness, and safety during every shoot.
My equipment includes a 200-600mm lens, a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens, and a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens, allowing me to cover a wide range of focal lengths.
I also use a GoPro 13 and several tripods to create varied, stable, and immersive images.
Coming from a video background (TV documentaries, corporate films, etc.), and since moving near Courchevel, I can easily combine both roles, working as both a videographer and a photographer.
My strong skiing ability and good physical fitness allow me to adapt perfectly to demanding mountain photo and video shoots.
