Jean-Philippe Reverdot (3 October 1952 – 4 June 2020) was a French photographer.
Reverdot began taking photographs in 1972. Having initially served as a photographer's assistant, he began working independently in 1975. After a decade working on commissioned projects on four continents, in 1985 he shifted to focus on his personal projects, using only black-and-white photography.
