Born from a passion for images and the desire to make photography accessible to everyone, YellowKorner is now a key player in the world of photographic publishing. Founded 18 years ago by Alexandre de Metz, this French publishing house has distinguished itself with its innovative concept: making photography universal while preserving its unique character.
Just like a luxury clothing store, YellowKorner showcases a new collection every season. The latest collection, literally sublime, features 7 new photographic capsules that transport you to the French Riviera, the Monaco Grand Prix, New York, and even the summit of Mount Fuji. This fresh and inspiring spring collection is crafted by 11 talented artists.

When revealing becomes a universal responsibility
The essence of YellowKorner lies in its ability to multiply prints while maintaining their exceptional value. Each photograph is printed in limited and numbered editions, ensuring a rare and precious character. This original model allows photographers to have their works widely distributed while preserving undeniable artistic value.
The publishing house quickly established itself in the field by showcasing prestigious names such as Oliviero Toscani, Matthieu Ricard, Yann Arthus-Bertrand, Fifou, Laurent Baheux, and Robbie McIntosh. With a catalog of over 3200 photographs and 400 artists, YellowKorner has provided its artists with international visibility while democratizing access to photographic art for the general public. Alongside established names, the house also shines a spotlight on emerging talents.
A Globally Expanding Network
With 80 galleries scattered across the globe, YellowKorner is more than just a...simple editor: it's a true talent scout. From Paris to Tokyo, passing through Rome and Madrid, each gallery is designed to offer a unique and immersive experience, with a careful design, at the crossroads of art and modernity.

They have recently been revamped to offer a cleaner, more museum-like, and brighter atmosphere, perfect for contemplating the artworks. Visitors can discover the photographs in an environment where the play of light and materials enhances each image, and each space allows for genuine interaction with the art.
LabKorner, an XXL darkroom in Modlniczka
Behind the quality of the works displayed by YellowKorner lies a highly precise know-how. Since 2014, the house has had its own laboratory, LabKorner, located in Poland, near Krakow. Unique in Europe, this 5500 m2 laboratory combines craftsmanship and high technology for extremely high-precision prints. Each photograph is meticulously checked and processed, from printing to framing. The prints are made with top-quality materials, and every work goes through a rigorous control process before being shipped to its final destinations (galleries or private collectors).
A house that is just as dedicated to photographers as it is to its community
YellowKorner stands out for its human and committed approach to photographers. Each artist, whether established or emerging, receives personalized support. The publishing house works hard to showcase their work through exhibitions, reports, the creation of portfolios, or broad personal guidance.
The mission of YellowKorner is clear: to reveal the talents, stories, and emotions captured behind each photograph. This commitment involves highlighting photographers through its website, galleries, and social media. Every purchase becomes a meaningful act, supporting the artist while contributing to a collective effort to celebrate photography.
A constantly evolving ecosystem
Today, YellowKorner is more than just a publisher: it’s a true ecosystem that values every image and every photographer. Its website, a real distribution platform, features thousands of photographs carefully selected by an editorial committee. The works are categorized into various thematic categories.
