Claude Charlier is a photographer born in Nancy (France). He knew by the age of 12 that photography was going to be his chosen profession, though his studies remained on the classical arts, music, and fine art in particular. After the usual first jobs, including working as a photographer for the French government, he was asked to come and work at Paris Match. But apart from photography he had one other interest at the time.. it was Japan. He left Europe for Japan and began a life that took him all over the world. Claude has lived and worked in Japan, Europe, and the USA, where he currently resides. His work has appeared in many of the world's major publications, and his client list includes an impressive list of the world's major corporations (American Express, Bridgestone, Coca-Cola…) and publications (Madame Figaro, Geo France, Geo Germany, National Geographic, Stern, Paris Match…). He has won back-to-back awards for the Best annual report over a six-year period, received the Mercury award for his work for Ricoh Company, the Best advertising campaign for NEC twice, Best magazine add for his Nikon camera campaign work... Two of his shows have been sponsored by Pentax and Nikon, and Claude Charlier is listed in both the "Dictionnaire des Photographes" and the "Encyclopedie de la Photographie".
