Wedding photographer in Provence. Elegant wedding stories in the South of France, the French Riviera, Paris.
Based in Provence, between Aix-en-Provence and Marseille, I photograph elegant weddings in the South of France and throughout Europe. Inspired by the Mediterranean light, exceptional landscapes, and authentic stories, I create natural photojournalistic portraits that stand the test of time with simplicity and emotion.
From Provençal estates to seaside villas, from Luberon villages to the cliffs of Corsica or Italian landscapes, each wedding is a new adventure. My approach always remains the same: to tell your day discreetly, highlighting sincere emotions, important details, and the beauty of the venues you have chosen.
If I love traveling, it’s above all to meet couples, discover their stories, and create images that reflect who they are. Because beyond the location, it’s the people and their emotions that give each photo story its true meaning.

Wedding Photography | Aix-en-Provence South of France
In the South of France or across the globe
Even though I am based in the South of France (between Aix-en-Provence and Marseille), my camera bag is always packed and ready to go anywhere. Drawing on years of experience, I've had the privilege of traveling all over France as a wedding photographer.My favorite locations are: the South, naturally! But also Corsica, the Paris region (Île-de-France), Lyon, and Bordeaux. Whether out in the countryside or right in the city, I absolutely love discovering new destinations

French Riviera
A couple photoshoot is a unique and special experience that allows you to capture the love and connection you share with your partner. In Cassis, I've chosen to offer morning photoshoots.
Let's meet to discuss your big day.
Every wedding is a unique story. My role is to tell that story with sensitivity, capturing the emotions, the glances, and all those spontaneous moments that make the day so special. I love creating natural, luminous, and timeless images that faithfully reflect what you experienced and what you’ll still feel many years from now.
Based near Aix-en-Provence, I photograph weddings throughout Provence, all over France, and abroad. From Provençal country houses to vineyards, from the cliffs of Corsica to the hills of Tuscany, each location brings its own light and character, but it is always your emotions that remain at the heart of my photojournalism.
My approach is unobtrusive and deeply human. I’ll be there to support you with warmth throughout the day so that you can fully enjoy every moment, while I focus on telling your story with elegance and authenticity.
