Wedding photographer
in Blois

Blois sits at the centre of the Loire's densest concentration of châteaux, the triangle between Chambord and Cheverny, with the Sologne opening to the south. Few places in France pack so many wedding venues into so small a radius. If you are marrying near Blois, here is the ground and the venues we would bring to it.

Documentary wedding photography by Cristina & Petrică Tănase

Within half an hour of Blois you can marry in a 1620 château on a river, a Renaissance jewel beside Cheverny, a manor near Chambord or a wild Sologne estate with five ponds. This is destination-wedding country, and it draws as many British and international couples as French ones, which is exactly who we photograph best.

We are based in the Vienne, less than two hours away, and we travel to the Loir-et-Cher readily. Here are the venues around Blois we would most love to photograph, from the town doorstep out into the Sologne.

How we work

We came to weddings from photojournalism. We observe, we anticipate, we capture what happens without interrupting it. No posing, no staging, no asking anyone to do it again.

We always work as two. While one of us is at the ceremony, the other is watching the faces. That second pair of eyes is the difference between a record of a place and a record of your day.

Why us

This Is Reportage, TOP 20 Storytellers in the World, 2022. WPJA, TOP 50 Photographers in the World, 2021 and 2022. 232 international awards across sixteen years, judged anonymously from real weddings.

337 weddings photographed since 2009, across Europe. We are based in the Vienne, we speak French, English and Romanian, and we always work as a duo. Packages from 3,190 €.

"We planned our whole wedding around being able to work with them. The way they naturally blend in while capturing every emotion, warm, humane, and so easy to work with."

Justina & Alex

"It only took five minutes to realise they were the friends we wanted to pay to be at our wedding."
