Jean-François Jonvelle (French pronunciation: [ʒɑ̃ fʁɑ̃swa ʒɔ̃vɛl]), born on 3 October 1943 in Cavaillon, was a French photographer of fashion, glamor and portraiture. Work on the release of 20 Ans magazine and then work on Dim Dam Dom Vogue, Stern, Gala, Elle. Born in 1943, he was assistant to Richard Avedon in the 1960s. During his career, he made many portraits of women, often his friends: natural young people, often naked, unconcerned. Unlike other fashion and glamor photographers, who offer a provocative woman, Jean-François Jonvelle's performance is much softer, more natural, more jovial but equally sensual. He died in Paris at the age of 58 years of terminal cancer, 15 days after it was detected, on 16 January 2002.
