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 parts of your celebration. Most couples planning a destination wedding here make a weekend of it, so this structure fits how the celebrations unfold.

Full package includes:

The full story, start to finish. From morning preparations through to the party, I’m there for the whole day. You won’t need to clock-watch or wonder if I’m still around — everything is covered.

Ceremony, portraits, and group photos

The key moments photographed with family and friends, alongside simple, natural portraits of the two of you.

Candid storytelling and timeless portraits

Documentary-style coverage throughout the day, with space for portraits that feel personal rather than staged.

600+ edited images via an online gallery

All final images carefully edited and delivered in a private gallery you can share with guests.

Preview gallery within 48 hours

A handful of highlights ready almost immediately, while the day is still fresh.

Private gallery for full delivery

The complete collection, ready to download, print, or share however you like.

A signed contract and booking fee of €500 are all that's required to secure your date.

Travel within 200km of Bordeaux is included. For weddings further out, I’ll quote travel and accommodation (if needed) clearly and upfront.

Full-Day Wedding Coverage — €1,950

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 Coverage — €400

Rehearsal dinner, pool party, or BBQ. A relaxed start to the story and a chance to capture the people who matter before the main event. Often where some of the most personal, unscripted photos happen.

Day-After Coverage — €400

Brunch, vineyard tour, or recovery day. Keeps the atmosphere going and rounds out the story of your wedding.

Engagement Session in/around Bordeaux (up to 50km)

Complimentary with any wedding booking (€250 standalone). A relaxed session to get comfortable in front of the camera, with portraits in one of Bordeaux’s characterful spots. Perfect for save-the-dates or a keepsake before the wedding.

Proposal Shoot in Bordeaux — €225

Discreet coverage of the moment plus a short portrait session afterwards. Simple, personal, and easy to arrange if you’re planning a surprise. Delivered as a small set of polished images within 48 hours.

Not sure which package fits best or want to know how I actually work on the day? Here’s a bit more about me — it might help.

A black and white photo of a bride and groom walking into a wedding ceremony through a large open doorway surrounded by stone walls. Guests are standing and seated on the left side, watching the couple enter. The bride is wearing a long, flowing gown with a train and the groom is dressed in a suit. The scene appears to be in a historic or rustic venue.
