Wedding photographer Monaco
Wedding photographer in Monaco and in Provence, I welcome you on my website and in my universe.
You have decided to get married and are looking for a professional photographer. First of all, allow me to congratulate you on your future union. I have been a wedding photographer around Monaco for more than 10 years and I travel all over the French Riviera, but also everywhere in France and abroad. I will be delighted to accompany you on your wedding.
My experience allows me to have a very clear vision of wedding photography and how to accompany you on this very special day for you.
Thus, I will be able to advise you beforehand, but also to manage the stress on the D-day in order to capture the emotions and to deliver you the most natural photos possible.
For me, to meet you before the D-day is important to better determine your desires, discover your personalities and your expectations. I often hear from future brides and grooms « we are not models, we are stressed for our photo session ». Don’t worry, I understand this feeling very well because I also share it when I have to go on the other side of the lens. Just look at my profile picture. I myself called in a professional.
As you will see in my gallery and through my blog posts, no photo is posed, my watchword is really taking photos naturally. Also I have some tips to make you feel comfortable. I will allow you to take full advantage of this moment to bring out the most beautiful images and keep all the memories of your wedding.
My approach of the wedding photography is to retranscribe the emotions of the D-day in a very luminous, sober and light style.
The lights of the south of France are ideal for this kind of photo, but I also had the pleasure to play with those of the whole world.
Finally, I prefer the photos taken on the spot to bring you the best memories of this day.

Wedding photography in Monaco
There are several trends in wedding photography. And even if I don’t like to define myself by a label, I notice that the kind of wedding pictures I make and that I like is in a soft, luminous, light atmosphere, which is similar to the fine art style. This photographic trend is not just a fashion of the moment but a real photographic trend that is developing more and more, with photographers from all over the world.
This style is largely inspired by what has been done in film photography for many years. It has since been adapted by digital photographers for an almost similar rendering today.
This trend is characterized for me by two things.
The first is the rendering of the images. They are generally made against the light, taken at large aperture, whose tones are warm, pastel and very bright.
The second is the idea of having a coherent style throughout the reportage, a storytelling that follows the different stages of the wedding. From the carterie, to the preparations, through the wedding ceremony, the cocktail and of course the evening with your guests. The goal is not only to have a sum of photographs but to tell a story, your story.
Obviously in the middle of your wedding day, I like to have some time to immortalize your love during a more intimate session. Ideally this session takes place at the end of the day, during the « golden hour ». This is definitely the best time of the day for your beautiful couple photos. This « golden hour » is just after sunset, when the sun is still shining perfectly on the chosen location but the heat is less and no sunlight is shining on you.
This aesthetic blends very well with nature, especially the fields of olive trees, lavender, but also the beaches of the French and Italian riviera as well as the alleys of the old villages of France.
As a wedding photographer in Monaco, I have the chance to be surrounded by beautiful landscapes that I will make you discover with pleasure.
My philosophy as a wedding photographer
a passion at your service
For me, a wedding day is a mixture of joy, tears of happiness, smiles, love, and I like to capture these moments through my cameras to retranscribe them at best. I also like the idea that you can enjoy your wedding album every day of your life by thinking about it with emotion, nostalgia and that this memory remains unforgettable.
During your wedding, I like to be forgotten to capture your emotions, those of your family and your guests in the most natural way possible. Many brides and grooms who have trusted me say at the end of the day what a pleasure it was not to have to worry about the photographer. They are also surprised when they receive the photographs to have all the emotions of the big day without ever having noticed me.
I also attach a lot of importance to accompany you during the organization of your wedding and make you benefit from my experience. This from the first appointment to the delivery of the photos, to give you the best advice so that my work is the right reflection of what you imagined. As a wedding photographer in Monaco, I also have a very good knowledge of the different places to realize your couple photos. I have traveled extensively in Provence during all the weddings I had the pleasure to cover and can therefore share with you a lot of information on the right places.
As you will see, all my wedding packages are based on the same model. They include, at least, a meeting before your wedding (either by phone, video or in real life) to get to know you better and identify your expectations. This is really the basis of my work, and to be able to best meet your expectations, I need to know them perfectly. Do not hesitate to share your budget with me so that I can find the most suitable price for you.
I also like to advise you and share my experience as a provider in the world of wedding photography.

My career as a wedding photographer
Why the world of wedding photography
I started photography when I was 25 years old after a small accident. Being stuck at home in Nice without being able to do much, and as the world of photography attracted me for years, I decided to use this time to get more interested in it. So I started by photographing the landscapes around Monaco and the Provence region. Then, some friends having seen my photos decided to trust me to realize their portrait sessions. I immediately got into the game by documenting myself on the subject, by training myself, but in spite of all the interest I had in fashion photography, I was still missing something. After a year, a friend of mine, who really appreciated my photos, asked me to immortalize his sister’s wedding. It was a revelation for me. Since that day, I decided to become a wedding photographer in Monaco and in the Alpes Maritimes and to specialize mainly in wedding photography and its universe.
That’s how this adventure started more than 10 years ago, in this universe in which I fully blossom. These last years, I even had the honor to be published on French wedding blogs (Queen for a day, Adore Blog, …) but also international (Wedding Chicks, French Wedding Style, …). This job also allows me to share my knowledge with my clients, whether you decide to get married in Monaco, in the Alpes Maritimes, in the South of France or in Paris, but also when I have the pleasure to travel to join you on the other side of the world; to immortalize your union. This has also allowed me to discover wonderful estates and castles, between Cannes, Antibes, Fréjus, Mougins, Aix, Marseille, Saint Tropez and even Paris. In addition to this activity of wedding photographer, I like to realize sessions of engagement of type « lifestyle ». The idea is once again that you feel comfortable during this session and that the photos look like you. For me, each couple is different, hence the interest in getting to know you and your expectations. Moreover, the engagement sessions are a very good way to familiarize yourself with the idea of the couple session, its progress, and to be able to approach it on the D-day without stress.
If this presentation, my portfolio and the different testimonies of brides and grooms with whom I had the pleasure to work have convinced you, do not hesitate to contact me quickly to explain your project. Don’t hesitate to tell me your story, share your budget or the price range for your wedding photographer and finally if you are accompanied by a wedding planner.
