Thibaut Marot is a French photographer, director, and videographer based in Briançon, renowned for his work on climbing, mountaineering, and Himalayan expeditions.
With over ten years of experience, he has built a reputation for capturing not only landscapes and light, but also the tenacity, ambition, and poetic moments of those who push human limits in the wilderness. He has collaborated with some of the best French climbers and mountaineers. He directed and produced films for Seb Bouin, such as the "Hidden Gems" series, "ACL" (9b), and "Wolf Kingdom" (9b+). He has also documented Benjamin Védrines, notably during high-altitude alpine expeditions such as "Jannu Est" and "K2 Chasing Shadows," as well as during striking climbing documentaries like "Tissalatine - Le Rappel Du Hoggar" (2025), and "The Queen Swing," about the first female ascent by Laura Pineau and Kate Kelleghan of the legendary Triple Crown, which involves linking El Capitan, Half Dome, and Mount Watkins in a single 24-hour climb.

Thibaut Marot's work combines technical mastery (managing complex lighting and isolated locations) with a keen sense of narrative: he frames climbers within their environment in such a way that the route, the rock, the ice, or the mountain itself becomes a character. His films and photographs are not simply testimonies; they convey the tension, the exposure, the scale, and the emotional arc of the climb.
