Keep – Really poorly written article that does little to reflect the subject's notability, but from a simple Google search it's clear there's plenty of reliable, independent sources that demonstrate that he meets the WP:GNG. See WP:NEXIST. Kb.au (talk) 13:44, 22 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep I wholeheartedly agree with Kb.au: a quick google news yields 58 results, among which:

The Moscow Times: The intimate art of iconic fashion photographer Denis Piel [1].
La Dépêche du Midi : Lempaut. Un nouveau projet photographique pour Denis Piel, which begins by: Denis Piel est un photographe de mode reconnu (Denis Piel is a well-known mode photographer) [2].

Strong Keep I found a profile on him in the Observer in like two minutes. He's literally a famous photographer, look around.104.163.153.162 (talk) 07:00, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. The refs now added to the article establish notability. Station1 (talk) 07:16, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. I was one of those who worked on trimming down the shapeless mass of unreferenced promotional material that was in this page before, in the hope of turning it into an entry appropriate to an encyclopaedia – so thank you for your "really poorly written" comment, Kb.au! Sources are not easy to find; please note that: La Dépêche du Midi is a local news article on someone who has a business in the area; Observer is not The Observer. His notability is unquestionable, though. Added at 10:05, 23 December 2017 by Justlettersandnumbers
