Swiss Photographer and Director Reto Schmid splits his time between Paris and Zurich. Contributing for both independent and established publications, he creates crisp and playful essays.

Described as ‘a photographer with an eye for subtle hilarity’, Reto is a graduate of Switzerland’s ECAL. His highly-polished style and distinct humour stem from his photographic skill and cross-disciplinary approach. “I’m often trying to introduce elements that you wouldn’t expect in a fashion shoot. To push the boundaries of fashion imagery and take inspiration from all sorts of contexts", he says.

Reto has shot for magazines including Dazed, AnOther, POP, Vogue Spain, Vogue Ukraine, Buffalo Zine, Noon, Interview Germany, T Magazine China, and M Le Magazine du Monde, and for major brands like Gucci, Burberry, Versace, Louis Vuitton and Kenzo.
