For Olearius, the candle is not a spin-off product. It is a natural extension of the brand into the world of home goods, designed with the same attention to detail as its olive oils.

The project began with a search for French porcelain manufacturers, followed by a prototyping phase to find the exact container that would match the brand’s premium positioning. The choice fell on white Limoges porcelain and black Haute-Vienne porcelain, two noble materials associated with durability and quality. The artistic direction for the packaging is identical to that of the olive oil. The product photography creates a minimalist aesthetic, with compositions based on contrasts between materials—ceramic, wax, and natural light. The object is prominent, clear, and authentic. The packaging does not seek to overshadow the object itself.

For the 2026 Champagne M. Marcoult campaign, the brief is clear: highlight the food-and-wine pairings within the range. The campaign is structured around two themes: the “Cuvées Bistronomiques,” photographed against a backdrop of “craillères”—the limestone formations of the Champagne region’s underground cellars—and the “Cuvées Gastronomiques,” set against a backdrop of white marble, which conveys a more formal, more elite feel.

The visual concept creates a carefully curated palette of pairings for each vintage. The bottle is simply positioned, in balance, always without any photo manipulation. The composition is built around the product and the elements that complement it, without artifice. Zero AI. One hundred percent real. This campaign is part of vrai studio annual partnership vrai studio the house, vrai studio the fifth year of continuous collaboration between Camille Gabarra and the teams at Champagne M.Marcoult.

Since 1877, the Garnier family has been producing and distilling in the Normandy Bocage. Nicolas entrusted us with the redesign of his identity after aligning us with several agencies. The human touch and a taste for the real thing made the difference. A family crest, Art Deco typography and midnight blue set the brand apart. The offer was reorganized into two ranges: one young, with a metaphorical illustration of the apple tree cycle; the other traditional, with classic graphic codes.

Calvados Garnier is a Normandy-based calvados producer. Camille Gabarra was entrusted with the artistic direction and product photography during the first twenty years of her career, making this project one of the seminal works in the wine and spirits industry.

The project encompasses the brand’s visual identity and the photographic direction for its products. Rooting the brand in the traditions of artisanal Normandy spirits—without imitating generic market standards—is the same principle that now guides projects for Champagne M.Marcoult, Distillerie de la Forge Distillerie Monéger. In fact, it was through Calvados Garnier that Champagne M.Marcoult first discovered Camille Gabarra’s work, before contacting him several years later for a collaboration that has been ongoing since 2020.

vrai studio the bottles and designs the packaging for the white and rosé ratafia, ensuring direct consistency with the graphic system developed for the house’s champagnes. The bottle, the label’s silhouette, the color palette, and the typographic style are all crafted so that the ratafia stands as a natural extension of the brand, without any break in tone or formal imitation. The product photography direction combines scenes shot in the cellar with studio product shots, anchoring each image within the estate’s world. The ratafia tells the story of the same house, but in a different way—through a different product, a different light, and a different moment in the harvest.

Elephant Factory Classic is a family-run workshop specializing in the complete restoration of classic Land Rovers, bolt by bolt. Jean-François Saulières and his sons Thomas and Raphaël offer a full vehicle restoration—a rare service that deserved a brand identity to match.

The project entrusted to vrai studio a simple observation: the existing brand identity did not do justice to the precision and high standards of the work. The creative solution is a mascot—a pink elephant whose trunk transforms into a wrench, a direct metaphor for the trade. The symbol is strong, memorable, and instantly recognizable. The key deliverable is a physical plaque mounted on the rear of refurbished vehicles, certifying that the work was performed by Elephant Factory Classic. The accompanying photography project supports the brand, notably featuring an image created for an advertisement published in a trade magazine.

Elen Larcebeau is a Bordeaux-based jewelry house, renowned in Bordeaux for the quality and uniqueness of its designs. The collaboration with vrai studio two distinct projects.

The first is a photo essay of the boutique—its facade, interior, and workshop—intended to support the brand’s communications. The second is a studio shoot with full artistic direction and styling: staging the jewelry, selecting materials that complement the pieces, and setting up lighting to capture the precision of the jewelry craftsmanship. Photographing jewelry requires an understanding of what each piece embodies—the material, the shape, and the finish—before deciding how to showcase it. Art direction and styling are inseparable from the photography process when the subject is of such precision.

B.A.T.

Loïc Charpy is a blacksmith and distiller based in Barbonne-Fayel in Champagne. La Distillerie de la Forge produces a wide range of artisanal spirits, including gins, brandies, and liqueurs, with a focus on working with materials and mastering fire.

The challenge facing vrai studio was to build a brand identity that would be recognizable across more than twenty product variants. The solution is a two-tiered graphic system: a top-level brand label that is consistent and recognizable, and a bottom-level product label that is modular, capable of adapting to each product without diluting the overall identity. The storytelling—centered on the blacksmith, fire, steel, and the transformation of materials—informs every design choice and sets the brand apart from the typical conventions of artisanal distilleries. The project encompassed the logo, the graphic style guide, the complete bottle labeling, and product photography direction.
