I. Booking

Securing your date requires both signed contract and paid deposit. Afterward, I'll assist you in finding local vendors, establishing your own day-of timeline —quite convenient when you don't have a planner, and discussing your photography plans. Pinterest will be a valuable resource in shaping your vision.

II. Wedding

As your special day unfolds, it's time for you to enjoy every second. I am dedicated to capture this significant chapter of your story, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience. During the couple session, I'll step up to gently guide you, ensuring you look your best version in every photograph.

The communication (pre-wedding calls, WhatsApp messages and emails) ease us into a wedding where creative and personalized photographs happen naturally.

Danielle & Stephen

F.A.Q.

All your questions answered

1. Where are you based?

I’m based in a small town near Bordeaux, in Southwest France, but I travel all over France to capture love.

2. Do you photograph internationally?

You bet I do! Nothing excited me more than the opportunity to shoot a destination wedding or elopement. If you’re thinking of taking your celebrations overseas, please get in touch so we can chat about the finer details.

3. What can we expect? What is your approach?

Before your big day, I'll help you with the planning for your photos, and I'll also introduce myself to your other vendors I'll be working with. I love to naturally capture my couple's stories and try to keep their time in front of our cameras relaxed and comfortable. During some parts of the day I step back to document spontaneous moments, emotional candids and love of a wedding day, and during the other times we prefer to add some curated direction into scenes to artistically tell a story of your wedding day.

4. We don't know how to pose!

Will you be surprise if I tell you that most of my couples are worried about this too? Being bride/groom (a.k.a. the 'stars' of the day) doesn't require you turn into professional models. My job is, first, to capture this beautiful day of yours in a natural way, but also to help you making sure you look your best but still yourself on photographs.
Don't worry! Keep being the great, fun and loving couple that you are, I'll help you with the rest!

5. How long will it take to receive our photos?

A sneak peek of minimum 10 photos is delivered to you within 48h after the wedding, and it will take 6 weeks to receive your final wedding photos. I put a lot of love and care into perfecting each image, which is why it’ll take me a little bit more time to deliver your final images. If you’d like your photos sooner, you ask me about the rush fee.

6. How do you deliver the photos?

All my clients receive their photos as a private online gallery! This looks like your own little photo website where you can view and download your images! This gallery is guaranteed to be open to you for 1 year after your wedding. After that 1 year, you are responsible for keeping your own images safe (e.g. cloud, hard drive etc.).

7. DO YOU OFFER ALBUMS AND PRINTS?

Yes! The albums I offer are handmade by passionate people, using the best archival quality paper and ink, finished off with a custom embossing and premium linen, leather or velvet cover options. Each one is complete bespoke to you and the wedding day you create, designed by me with layflat, thick pages. In addition to that, a wide range of high quality prints are offered to your selection in the Print Store which will be directly accessible from the online gallery of your wedding.

8. How do we secure our date?

Please fill the contact form HERE with all the details about your wedding. I'll then send you my price guide. Once you're ready to make this official,  I'll send you your contract and a deposit invoice representing 40% of the total amount will then be issued to secure your wedding date.
