Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Before booking, you want to know exactly where you’re stepping. And that’s a very good thing.

Got questions?

Pricing, timing, video, the way I work, booking, final delivery, my presence on the day… it’s all here.
And if you still feel like something is missing, we’ll simply talk about it.

Before booking

Do you travel?

Yes. A lot.

I’m based between Lyon and Bangkok, and I travel wherever a story deserves to be told.

France, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Spain, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, Malaysia, South Korea… and elsewhere too, if the project truly moves me.

A large part of my weddings already take place far from Lyon, so moving around is completely part of the game.

No city, no country, no landscape is ever a limit if it feels like the right match.

What I offer

A living, strong, real wedding story.

I’m not here to create cold images or make you perform all day long. I’m here to capture what is actually happening, with style, rhythm and substance.

Once your date is booked, I also support you before the wedding: conversations, advice, timeline adjustments, and vendor recommendations if needed.

After the wedding, you receive your edited high-resolution images in a private gallery, ready to download, share and print.

Photo + video

Today, video is also something we do as a duo.

If you want your wedding covered in both photo and film, we offer a fuller, more immersive and more coherent experience together.

You can discover that offer here:

It’s ideal if you want not only to relive your day, but to truly feel it all over again.

Albums & prints

Yes. And thankfully so.

Your photos are not meant to end up forgotten on a phone or buried on a hard drive.

You receive your private gallery, and from there you can easily order prints, an album, or share a selection with the people you love.

I deeply believe in physical objects. A wedding album is what you keep, what you reopen, what you pass on.

Pricing, booking, timing

What budget should we plan for?

My wedding coverage starts at €2,970.

After that, everything depends on the length of coverage, the location, the season, and the way you want to experience your day.

I always prefer to begin with a real conversation. To understand who you are, what you imagine, and what you truly want to feel.

Only then do I send you the full brochure, so you can choose the experience that feels the most right for you.

How do we book?

We start by talking.

A real conversation, not just three emails about pricing. The feeling matters.

Choosing your photographer is not just about pretty pictures or a price line. It’s about trust, vision, and the way we connect.

If it feels right on both sides, I then send you the contract and the details to officially secure your date.

When should we book?

As early as possible, especially if you’re getting married on a highly requested date.

For the most in-demand dates and the busiest seasons, booking 10 to 14 months in advance is often a very good idea.

That said, some couples reach out just a few weeks before their wedding and I’m still available.

I only take around twenty weddings a year. So sometimes it’s not a matter of space in the calendar, but simply a season that is already full. And sometimes, yes, I do fall for a real favorite.

Payment

Your date is officially secured once I receive the signed contract and the deposit.

After that, the remaining balance follows the payment schedule we set together, in 3, 5 or 10 installments, with the final payment due one week before the wedding.

All exact terms are clearly outlined in the contract, in a simple and clean way.

And before the wedding?

We go over everything again once your day starts becoming concrete.

At the time of booking, you don’t yet have all the timings, all the locations, or always a clear sense of how much coverage you really need. That’s normal.

One to two months before the wedding, I’ll ask you to fill out an online timeline. At that point, you can adjust your package, add options, and then we do one final check-in during the week of the wedding.

The idea is for everything to stay fluid. Not locked in too early.

Delivery, style, presence

How many images will we receive?

I don’t work with a fixed number pasted in advance.

An intimate wedding with 40 guests and a wild day with 180 people do not tell the same story.

What I deliver are all the strong, right and meaningful images needed to tell your story fully.

For a full wedding, that usually means several hundred images, carefully edited in color, and sometimes also in black and white when it truly makes sense.

When will we receive the images?

Quickly, but never rushed.

You first receive a preview around ten days after your wedding, so you can dive back into it while it still feels fresh.

And if you follow me on Instagram, you might already spot a few gems while I’m sorting or editing your images.

Then the full gallery arrives once the entire story is ready, usually within 2 to 3 weeks, sometimes less, sometimes a little more depending on the season.

My goal is for you to have both the emotion of a quick return and the quality of a truly finished piece of work.

We don’t see much black and white on your site?

Yes, that’s true.

I choose black and white when it genuinely strengthens something. Never to artificially dress up an image.

The image has to already be strong enough to stand on its own: raw emotion, hard light, a striking contrast.

When an image calls for it, I turn it black and white. So if you love black and white, live your wedding fully — you’ll get some.

We’re not very comfortable in front of the camera…

Perfect. Most of the couples I photograph are not models, and that’s exactly how it should be.

I’m not asking you to perform. I guide when needed, I let you breathe when needed, and I always look for what feels real rather than forced.

That’s also why a love session or a pre-wedding session can be so valuable before the wedding day: it removes a block, makes everything more fluid, and completely changes the way you experience being photographed.

You can discover those sessions here: Discover couple sessions

Why invest at this level?

Because here, you are not just paying for someone to show up with a camera.

You are investing in a way of seeing, in the ability to feel what is happening, to tell it well, to hold a high level of standards from beginning to end, and to create images that stay.

When you hesitate between several photographers, the real question is not only “how much does it cost?” but “what will remain, and with how much force?”

What if we’re afraid it will feel too posed… or not guided enough?

That’s exactly where everything plays out.

I know how to let a story breathe. I know when to guide. I know when to disappear.

The goal is neither to leave you on your own, nor to stage-manage you from morning to night.

I’m always looking for the balance between what is real, what is beautiful, what is alive, and what is intense.

That’s why my couples come to me: they want to feel their day, not replay it.
