I am an award-winning French wedding photographer based in Cambridge, UK since 1998. I am fluent both in French and in English. I will capture your wedding in the most unobtrusive manner, so as not to influence your big day too much. And keep the flow of events as natural as possible. I will capture images of people having a great time, this is what I do best!
We offer wedding photography all over France and the UK. We have captured many weddings in France over the years as well as the UK: Mainly in England, but also Wales and Scotland. We offer destination wedding photography all over Europe.

We excel at portrait photography and bridal photography on a wedding day is a great way to represent a bride on one of the happiest days in her life.

We love couple photography but on any given wedding day we like to keep the couple shots as natural as possible and we prefer to capture them throughout the day.

Informal photography is what we do best. Capturing people unaware, in the middle of a great chat or fits of laughter.

Details are very important on a wedding day. Will you remember your flowers, your table decorations, your wedding venue, after a few years? We are here for that.
I have been a wedding photographer in France and the UK for over 20 years. I come highly recommended. I’m fluent both in French and English.
I am a friendly and unobtrusive wedding photographer. I excel at people photography, and always prefer the natural backdrops and situations to the over-elaborated setups. In my spare time, I tend to travel to practise my street and landscape photography and the former really comes out in my wedding shots.
We have travelled as far as Tuscany and Naples in Italy, Seville and Barcelona in Spain and Bavaria in Germany to capture weddings. We are happy to travel around Europe to record your big day.
As part of my summer photography workshops in Italy and France, I am often on the lookout for outstanding sceneries and landscapes, when shooting weddings, this trait comes out in my composition skills.

We are mainly seeing ourselves as photojournalists, capturing the day as it happens, recording all the main events, while adding our creativity to it and 20+ years of experience. We are like a fly on the wall, watching over proceedings and photographing them, but with the artist touch added to it.

I have always used Nikon cameras. Starting with film cameras, until 2003 when I bought my very first digital camera. And I have not looked back. The ease of use and instant feedback of digital cameras really makes them the only tool worth using.
As a conservative guidance, we would say we capture 50 images per hour, but it is often twice that amount.
Yes, I do. And I am insured up to £2 million for public liability insurance.
For weddings in France and Italy, generally between £200 and £500. That said if I find a really cheap flight and I can stay in a cheap B&B, I am sure we would be able to get that figure in the lower end of the spectrum. Further afield in Europe, it would definitely be towards £400-£500.
We rarely shoot outside of Europe, but if there was a request for that, at least £1,000 extra in travel fees would need to be added.
