Our Story

Marc Olivier Le Blanc is a commercial photographer in San Francisco with a studio in the vibrant Mission District, where creativity, culture, and craft intersect. Passionate about visual storytelling, he strives to transform both the ordinary and the unexpected into imagery that feels refined, authentic, and meaningful. His work spans portrait, editorial, lifestyle, and advertising photography, blending elegance with a subtle offbeat sensibility that resonates with modern brands and audiences.

Marc began his professional career as a journalist in France, drawn early on to photo-reportage and long-form visual narratives. His path led him through Eastern Europe and several years living and working in Africa before returning briefly to Paris to work behind a desk at Agence France-Presse. While formative, that experience reaffirmed his need to explore. After losing nearly all his possessions in Bolivia, the realization that he missed his camera above all else solidified his commitment to the craft. With little else left, he chose to fully invest his time and energy into creating strong, honest imagery.

Today, Marc Olivier Le Blanc is a San Francisco–based commercial, portrait, and editorial photographer, working with brands, agencies, and individuals who value storytelling and visual integrity. His clients include companies such as Chase, Levi’s and Google, and his work extends beyond photography into commercial videography. Available for studio and on-location shoots throughout San Francisco, the Bay Area and California,Marc collaborates closely with his clients to create expressive, contemporary visuals tailored to editorial, lifestyle, and advertising stories.
