Driving Places
Driving places showcases Calvin’s true passion: Cars, particularly classic vehicles. His work is a testament to this love, as he masterfully blends rare and prestigious automobiles with iconic landscapes, creating images that highlight the deep connection between a car and its surroundings.
Calvin’s photography challenges the conventional notion that sports cars belong solely in urban environments; instead, he portrays them as vessels of adventure, capable of escaping the confines of the city and finding freedom on the most awe-inspiring roads nature has to offer.
Calvin Courjon, 24, is a French photographer specialized in automotive and travel images. Calvin started his photographic journey when he was only ten years old. Fourteen years later, he’s never in one place for long. From shooting some of the most prestigious cars in Paris, Bangkok, or elsewhere, to exploring remote locations such as Patagonia, Calvin always travel to discover and feel new regions of the world to fuel his need of creating the best images. He also produces all the images of world’s best pastry chef, Cedric Grolet, as well as for various luxury brands.
But his true love still lies in cars, especially classics, and travels. His work reflects that. Trying to bring some of the rarest vehicles in iconic locations to emphasize the bond between a car and its background, demonstrating that sport cars are not only nested in big cities but are also a way of escaping in the nature, looking for the most incredible roads. His hunt for the best pictures has gathered more than 115 000 people on Instagram (@ccourjon) where he publishes his work and behind the scenes.
