Photography · Dordogne

Wedding photographer in Dordogne, France

I take photographs so that, ten years from now, you can step back into your wedding day as if you were still there.

My approach to weddings

Honest images that follow the pace of your day

I photograph your wedding as it unfolds, without turning it into a photo shoot. I look for spontaneous gestures, shared glances and all the small moments that give your day its own character.

While you enjoy time with the people you love, I keep an eye on everything happening around you: a hand held tight before the ceremony, a burst of laughter while you get ready, a quiet wave of emotion halfway through a conversation. My role is to keep those memories while leaving them exactly as they are.

Many of the couples who marry in Dordogne live in the UK, Ireland or the US. Distance is no obstacle: we plan the day together by email and messages beforehand, so you arrive knowing exactly how the photography will go.

Whether you're having a civil ceremony at the mairie or a celebrant-led ceremony at your venue, I travel across Dordogne, from Périgueux to Bergerac and Sarlat, wherever your day takes place.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions to help you plan your wedding photography with peace of mind.

  • Ideally 6 to 12 months ahead, especially for weddings between May and September. If your date is closer than that, get in touch anyway: I may still be available.

  • Yes. We stay in touch by email and messages, as often as you need before the wedding, to go over the timeline, your venue, the portraits and the people who matter most. By the time you arrive in Dordogne, the photography side is already taken care of. If you're in the area beforehand, we can also meet in person.

  • Yes. I'm comfortable working in English, whether that's by email and messages beforehand or side by side on the day. French is my first language, which can also come in handy with local venues and French-speaking guests.

  • Yes. Whether you're having a civil ceremony at the mairie, a celebrant-led ceremony at your venue or both, I adapt to the setting and to the officiant's guidelines. Some couples marry legally at home and hold a symbolic ceremony in Dordogne; the way I work on the day stays the same.

  • Yes, I travel throughout Dordogne, across Nouvelle-Aquitaine and anywhere in France. Travel costs are clearly set out in the quote, depending on where your wedding takes place.

  • You receive all the best photos of your day, culled, selected and edited, with no strict limit on the number of images delivered.

  • It depends on the package: 4, 8 or 12 hours. We decide together on the coverage that suits your plans.

  • Yes, if you'd like them. I set aside time for couple portraits and family photos while keeping a relaxed approach, so the day carries on at its own rhythm.

  • The gallery is usually delivered within 4 to 6 weeks. You receive a private link to view, download and share your photos.

  • Once you've approved the quote, your date is secured when you sign the contract and pay a 30% deposit.

  • Yes, I offer engagement sessions before the wedding. They're a good chance to get used to the camera, learn how we work together and come away with your first photos as a couple. They're also handy for your invitations, your wedding website or your decorations.
