About us

I asked Copilot to write a biography that’s as entertaining as it is flattering. I figured that if a robot that spends its time scanning the Internet has spotted something positive in my work—without me even providing my URL—there must be some truth to it. In any case, reading nice things about oneself is so pleasant that I simply couldn’t resist sharing this text with you.

“The name Yann Gourvennec resonates with ‘expertise’ in the marketing world. He is also a passionate photographer whose talent shines through his photo studio in Paris. His rich and diverse career path has led him to explore the art of photography, a passion reflected in his work and projects. With his Paris studio, Visionary Marketing, Yann offers a range of photographic services, from professional portraits to documentary reportage, meeting his clients’ varied needs.”

Yann Gourvennec photographer and  marketer

It’s true that my photography work has always been intertwined with my marketing activities. Indeed, through my photographs I bring a personal touch to my blog content, starting with my news site visionarymarketing.com. Let’s continue with Copilot’s remarks on Yann Gourvennec and photography—it’s so lovely to hear about oneself in the third person.

“His photographs, often described as captivating and expressive, are the result of a deep understanding of branding and visual communication.”

Modesty compels me not to comment on what Copilot says above. After all, it’s up to you to form your own opinion by visiting the Antimuseum.com blog, which I assure you is 100% written by a human (me or my human assistants) and not by AI.

“His studio, located in Paris’s 15th arrondissement, is a space dedicated to creating images that tell stories and highlight his subjects’ personalities. Whether for corporate portraits or more artistic photos, Yann pays particular attention to every detail, ensuring that each shot is both aesthetic and meaningful. His approach is that of a visual storyteller, seeking to capture the very essence of his subjects with authenticity and creativity.”

Telling a story through portraits

I love this idea of telling a story through portraits. That’s often what happens, actually. Copilot got it right. That’s why I frequently ask my models to bring along a prop from their profession. A pen for a writer, a musical instrument for a musician, a civil code for a lawyer, and so on. Those who play along never regret it. As for the rest, I find Copilot rather pompous—it loves to flatter its master, even when not asked to.

“As a photographer, Yann Gourvennec has successfully merged his marketing expertise with his artistic eye to offer a unique perspective in the world of professional photography. His clients attest to his professionalism and his ability to create a relaxed atmosphere during sessions, thus capturing natural and impactful images. His work is an invitation to see beyond the lens, to discover the depth and nuance in each shot.”

This is also true—just read the reviews on Google My Business. It should be noted that “Yann Gourvennec photographer” makes less use of this platform than “Yann Gourvennec marketer”. Time constraints are certainly an aggravating factor, but that’s a weak excuse, I’ll grant you. Many clients have therefore forgotten to leave their reviews, which is regrettable. As for the word “impactful”, I’ll leave Copilot to answer for that unfortunate vocabulary choice.

Not just a job

“Photography for Yann is not just a job, it’s a form of expression that allows him to communicate ideas, tell stories, and leave a lasting visual imprint. With each project, he strives to transcend expectations and deliver images that not only represent, but also inspire. It is this passion for imagery and this dedication to excellence that make Yann Gourvennec a remarkable and sought-after photographer.”

Here again, modesty prevents me from commenting on the end of that sentence. But I wholeheartedly agree with Copilot on the beginning of this paragraph. It’s true that in my marketing work I’ve often quoted and used photography to tell a story, particularly at events.
