Loire Valley · Touraine
Wedding photographer
in Montbazon
Montbazon sits in the Indre valley just south of Tours, and it is best known to couples for one of the grandest château-hotels in the Loire. We cover the whole of the Touraine from home in the Vienne, an hour south, with travel included.
A wedding here leans towards the elegant and the classic: white stone, formal gardens, a terrace over the valley for the cocktail hour. Our job in a setting like that is to keep it human, to find the real moments inside the grandeur rather than photograph the facade.
Montbazon sits in the Indre valley just south of Tours, crowned by Château d'Artigny, the Belle Époque palace a perfumer built to outshine Versailles. It is Touraine at its grandest, an hour from home and firmly in the Loire Valley we cover.

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.

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