Wedding photographer at
Château de la Vicomté
Château de la Vicomté is barely five minutes from the centre of Blois, beside the state forest. An ancient estate with a three hectare park of old trees and two reception halls, the larger seating a hundred and sixty. One of the Loir-et-Cher venues we would love to photograph, and the closest to Blois itself.
From our own weddings. We have not yet photographed here, and we would love to.
The château
An estate whose origins are traced back centuries, set in a three hectare park of old trees on the edge of the Blois state forest, with two named reception halls for weddings large and small.
Why la Vicomté suits the way we work
The Vicomté is the town-adjacent option, and that changes the day: no long transfers, the forest on the doorstep, a three hectare park for the ceremony and the portraits. For a documentary photographer, being minutes from Blois means we can follow the whole day, from a town-centre getting ready to the last dance, without losing hours on the road.
Two halls give it range, the Salle Louis XII for a full seated wedding of a hundred and sixty, the smaller Salle Anne de Bretagne for an intimate day.
Where your day photographs
The Salle Louis XII
The larger hall, up to a hundred and sixty seated, for a full wedding dinner.
The Salle Anne de Bretagne
The intimate room, for a smaller gathering close together.
The three hectare park
Old trees beside the forest, for the ceremony and the couple portraits.
The forest edge
The state forest on the doorstep, deep green and quiet for a walk in the last light.
How we would photograph your day
We came to weddings from photojournalism. We observe, we anticipate, we capture what happens without interrupting it. No posing, no staging the facade, 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 the venue and a record of your day.
