Young Melissa

Emmanuel Fouquet always knew he wanted a career where being surrounded by beautiful women was part of the job. In 1991, he left the Savoy Alps for Paris, where he came under the mentorship of the renowned Christian Chauveau, who trained him in the art of makeup. Emmanuel’s first assignments came through various modelling agencies—tough, low-paid gigs that nevertheless helped him get his foot in the door. Eventually, he took a bold step and headed to the United States, following an invitation from celebrated Penthouse photographer Hank Londoner. There, he immersed himself in the industry, building connections and learning from some of the best. He even acted as an agent for Londoner, Suze Randall, and Vivian Thomas, using each session as a chance to observe, study, and refine his own craft. With Londoner’s support, Emmanuel was introduced to photographer Michael Moore, who offered guidance and encouragement—further fuelling his growth. This marked the beginning of his meteoric rise. Today, his photographs appear on the covers of Penthouse, Hustler, Private, and many other publications, as well as in popular erotic calendars across Europe. Interestingly, Fouquet still often does his models’ makeup himself—proof of his hands-on, artistic approach. Now, enjoy the magic of his images!
