Wedding Photography Packages – Bordeaux, Dordogne & Southwest France
I keep things simple: one full-day rate that covers everything you need, with the option to add coverage for the other days of your celebration. Most couples planning a destination wedding here make a weekend of it, so this structure fits how the celebrations unfold.
Full coverage includes:
✓ Coverage throughout the day From morning preparations right through the ceremony, portraits and the party, until things properly loosen up and the ties go on the head. You get the whole day, not just the polished bits.
✓ Travel costs covered and included within 200km Bordeaux
✓ Pre-wedding Photography Session in/around Bordeaux/Saint-Émilion A relaxed session to get comfortable in front of the camera, with portraits in Bordeaux’s characterful spots. Perfect for save-the-dates or a keepsake before the wedding.
✓ Ceremony, portraits, and group photos The key moments photographed with family and friends, alongside simple, natural portraits of the two of you.
✓ 600+ edited images via an online gallery All final images carefully edited and delivered in a private gallery you can share with guests. All images free to download as many times as you like.
✓ Drone photography Aerial shots of your venue and grounds, worked in around the day so nothing feels staged for it.
✓ Two rolls of film Shot alongside the digital coverage and scanned by hand, adding a different texture to your gallery.
✓ Preview gallery within 5 days A handful of highlights, while the day is still fresh.
€2,450 for all of the above
Add-Ons
Extend the story beyond the main day. Many couples plan a whole weekend in France, so these options make sure everything is photographed as it unfolds.
Day-Before or Day-After Coverage — €450 per day
Rehearsal dinner, pool party, or BBQ. A relaxed start or end to the story and a chance to capture the people who matter outside of the main event.
If you’re planning a proposal or engagement session rather than a wedding, you can find more information here.

I’m based in Bordeaux and photograph weddings across the Dordogne, Charente, Lot-et-Garonne and throughout France.
I work mainly with English-speaking couples from the UK, US, Australia, Ireland and beyond — people who want beautiful photographs of themselves and the people who matter most, on the day that matters most.
Available across France and Europe.
