Recognized for the present, honest and intimate nature of her fashion and beauty portraiture and motion work, Sylve Colless draws inspiration from nature, fine art and film to create work that reflects her curiosity for and appreciation of her varied subjects, whatever form they make take. Her ability to relax and engage her subjects has led to the creation of images that are simultaneously beautiful and commercial. Sylve’s commitment to immersive experiences has recently led her to spend time imbedded with the indigenous Shanenawá tribe in the Brazilian Amazon, creating a personal project about the intersection of indigenous wisdom and nature’s ability to heal.
She has photographed campaigns for Abercrombie & Fitch, Armani Beauty, Origins, Louis Vuitton, SLVRLKE Denim, 7 for All Mankind, RVCA, Rollas, Sass & Bide, Harvey Nichols, New Balance, Bloomingdales & Levi's, among others. Sylve’s editorial clients include Harper's Bazaar, Vogue, InStyle, Marie Claire, Elle, Esquire & Russh.
