Paris wedding photographer

3 packages, from the ceremony alone to the full day: Essentiel (1 photographer, 4 h, ceremony + cocktail hour), Complète (2 photographers, 8 h, preparations to evening, 24-48 h teaser, album and engagement session included) and Prestige (2 photographers + 1 videographer, 12 h, album, engagement session, drone and USB key included). The amounts for each package are published on the wedding photographer prices (in French) page, and each quote is then adjusted to your actual schedule.

The length of coverage, the number of photographers, the volume of photos delivered and the options included. Essentiel covers 4 h — ceremony and cocktail hour — with 1 photographer. Complète covers 8 h, from preparations to evening, with 2 photographers, a 24-48 h teaser, the album and the engagement session included. Prestige covers 12 h and adds a dedicated videographer, the drone and the USB key.

Each of the 3 packages includes coverage of the big day (4 h in Essentiel, 8 h in Complète, 12 h in Prestige), the selection and one-by-one retouching of every photo delivered, a private online gallery, high-definition files with private usage rights, 1-year archiving, a preparatory meeting, scouting of the venue and travel in Île-de-France. Complète adds a second photographer, a 24-48 h teaser, the album and the engagement session; Prestige adds a videographer, the drone and the USB key.

You give your date, your venue and the planned schedule via the contact form, and you receive within 24 h a quote detailed line by line, with no commitment. The quote starts from the package closest to your day and then adjusts to your actual schedule. The date is only held once the quote is signed, together with the 30% deposit.

A selection of 25 to 40 photos retouched first and delivered 24 to 48 h after your wedding, before the full delivery. Included in the Complète and Prestige packages.

The stated figure — 150, 380 or 450 depending on the package — is the number of images selected then retouched one by one: light, colour, contrast. I take several hundred images over the day, then set aside duplicates, closed eyes and technical failures. RAW files are not delivered.

Your private online gallery stays accessible for 1 year, and your files are archived for 1 year after delivery. Remember to download your photos and keep your own copy during this period.

Between 2 and 8 weeks depending on the package and the time of year: shorter in low season, longer in high season (May to October) because of the volume of retouching.

Yes. An additional photographer, a highlight video, a drone, a photo booth, an album, an engagement session, paper prints, a box set, a USB key or a musical slideshow can be added to any package that does not already include them, and are priced in the quote.

Yes. The approach remains lifestyle and in natural light. The natural can be directed: I give you simple cues — where to stand, where to look, when to move forward — so that you have nothing to know how to do in front of the camera. Priority then goes to real moments: looks, laughter, emotions during the ceremony and the party.

Within 24 h of your request via the contact form, with a proposal suited to your date, your venue, your schedule and the package you are interested in.

Depending on the package: preparations, ceremony (religious, civil or secular), cocktail hour, evening (first dances, speeches) and time dedicated to the couple alone. The quote adjusts to what you want covered.

Yes, and it is recommended: I only cover 4 weddings a year, to give each one the preparation and retouching time it requires. Saturdays from May to October go first.

The terms for the deposit, cancellation and postponement are set out in the contract signed at booking.

If I am prevented (illness, force majeure), I immediately offer you a partner photographer from my network, chosen for the closeness of their style, at the price terms of your contract and at no extra cost. The choice remains yours: nothing happens without your agreement, and if the replacement doesn't suit you, all sums paid are refunded to you within 5 working days.

Each photo is written simultaneously to two memory cards during the coverage, in two separate camera bodies. The files are then copied to two separate media before any card is erased. An isolated hardware failure therefore loses no image.

Before the big day, we draw up together a short list of the combinations not to miss: your parents, your witnesses, the grandparents, the group photo. It is ticked off on site, usually during the cocktail hour. It is a safety net, not a programme — the rest of the day is photographed freely.
