Wedding photographer at
Château de Troussay
Château de Troussay stands a stone's throw from Cheverny, twenty minutes from Blois. A Renaissance jewel billed as the smallest château of the Loire, set in an English-style park. One of the Loir-et-Cher venues we would love to photograph.
From our own weddings. We have not yet photographed here, and we would love to.
The château
A Renaissance manor often called the smallest château of the Loire, a jewel of carved detail set in an English-style park, with a cour d'honneur and a rear courtyard for the celebrations.
Why Troussay suits the way we work
Troussay trades size for refinement, and that suits documentary photography: a small Renaissance château, an English park of winding paths and specimen trees, two courtyards for the arrivals and the outdoor buffets. Everything is close, so the day stays intimate and the light stays soft.
The reception hall takes a hundred and twenty seated or three hundred standing, and the owners run an English-language service for the international couples drawn to the Cheverny triangle.
Where your day photographs
The English-style park
Winding paths and specimen trees, soft dappled light for the couple portraits.
The cour d'honneur
The front court for the arrivals, the Renaissance façade behind.
The reception hall
A hundred and twenty seated or three hundred standing, for the dinner and the dancing.
The rear courtyard
For the outdoor buffets and the cocktail, the guests loose in the open.
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.
