Adl’s experience at Hamel therefore provided him with specialized knowledge of professional laboratory production.
After approximately six months, he moved into fashion photography, working as an assistant to Jacques Rochon.
This transition introduced him to another important dimension of photographic practice.
Fashion photography combined technical precision with artistic composition, lighting, visual storytelling, and collaboration among photographers, models, designers, and production teams.
Working as an assistant offered opportunities to observe the organization of professional photographic sessions and understand the relationship between creative direction and technical execution.
The experience also exposed Adl to the demanding standards of commercial photography in Paris.
Together, his laboratory training and experience in fashion photography provided a combination of technical and artistic skills that would later distinguish his professional work in Iran.
