Noirframe — Editorial fashion studio
Available for work
campaigns, lookbooks and editorial motion for brands with a point of view — shot between paris and new york, season after season.
The work
Ways of working
Every commission is shot by the founding crew — never a second unit.
Season campaigns directed like short films: treatment, casting, set, and a suite of stills cut for print, OOH, and social. One point of view from first deck to final grade.
Forty looks a day without losing the light. Clean, consistent frames that let the collection speak — in the atelier or on location.
Stories for print and digital titles, pitched or commissioned. Frames editors run as shot — the crop is the layout.
Campaign films, runway cutdowns, and fifteen-second verticals that move like the clothes do. Directed, shot, and graded in-house.
The conviction
clothes live in motion.
The studio
Noirframe began in 2012 in a borrowed atelier off Rue Saint-Sabin, with one conviction: a garment photographed still is a garment half seen. A hundred and twenty editorials and forty-six campaign seasons later, the crew is still deliberately small — one photographer, one stylist we trust, light that takes a side.
Two addresses, one standard. Paris for the ateliers and the shows, New York for the campaigns; a contact sheet within forty-eight hours wherever the set is. No second units, no house style applied by committee — the person you brief is the person behind the camera.
After the shoot
“The contact sheet arrived forty-eight hours after the show and three frames ran as spreads, uncropped. They shoot the way editors think — you can feel the layout inside the frame.”
“One day, twenty-two looks, rain from four o'clock. The film they cut from that wreckage still opens our shows two seasons later. There is a reason half the Paris calendar asks for their light.”
“They killed our moodboard on day one and photographed the collection the way it actually moves. Sell-through on the hero pieces doubled by week three.”
The fine print
Rates, rights, and timelines — answered the way we answer on the phone.
A pre-lit set, the founding crew, and a shot list built from your treatment the week before. We average thirty to forty looks a day on lookbooks and eight to twelve final frames on campaign days — the difference is intention, and we'll tell you which you need.
Campaign quotes include two years of print, digital, and OOH usage in agreed territories; lookbook and e-commerce work is licensed in perpetuity. Extensions are priced up front, never discovered later.
Constantly — Marrakech, Seoul, and the Hebrides in the last year alone. Travel is billed at cost with a day rate for the crew; worldwide is not a figure of speech.
Yes — full production through our own network: casting directors, stylists, hair and makeup, and set builders we've worked with for a decade. Bring your own team or borrow ours; most brands do half and half.
A contact sheet within forty-eight hours of wrap, selects within five days, retouched finals within ten. Motion cuts follow at two weeks. Seasons don't wait, and neither do we.
