Frequently asked questions

A: Right from the start. It starts with the first appointment in Bordeaux, where I try to understand the bride and groom ‘s vision of their happiest day. Then I try to see if their organization is on paper compatible with all the hazards and service providers present. There will be as many appointments as it takes to get everything right.

What’s more, from experience I’m able to see things that others don’t necessarily see, such as the best time totake photos, depending on the light, the location, and so on.

A: Yes, of course. The contract protects us both. It is necessary, compulsory and important for our relationship to be serene and lasting. Once you’ve received and accepted my quote, I’ll send you the personalized contract.

A: A lot of work andinvestment to make your day unforgettable . Indeed, I leave nothing to chance. Know that as soon as you choose me, we’ll we’ll see minimum 2 to 3 times with no time limit, then I’ll go on an unannounced tour of the wedding venue (town hall, church, chateaux / hall) to check that everything is ok and that there are no particular constraints.

If I notice anything that might upset us on the big day, I’ll let you know and we can work together to find an appropriate solution. Of course, this visit also allows me to see the lighting conditions and the equipment I need totake with me on the big day. On that famous day, I’ll be there, of course, but you’ll find it easy to forget me.

Once the wedding is over, I still have a lot of work to do. Back in my office in Bordeaux, I have to empty the memory cards, sort the photos to keep only the nectar of your day, and then start post-processing. Sorting and post-processing alone can represent up to 60 hours of cumulative work. Once the photos have been processed, all I have to do is put them on a USB flash drive, then back them up to an online gallery so that I can keep them forever. In short, the job of
wedding photographer
is above all a passion.

Planning for the big day is surely the most difficult exercise after the seating plan… that’s where it all comes down. If you’re too optimistic, you’ll open the ball 2 hours late and have to pay extra for the caterer and photographer at the end of the evening, or if you’re too pessimistic, you’ll open the ball at 7pm.

Let’s be clear about this: if this is your first wedding, you’re going to need a reliable reference. The only service provider who will be close to you all day is the photographer. It’s your personal assistant of sorts, able to manage timings and warn you if you’re running early or late.

Of course, if you have a Wedding Planner you’ll be even more relaxed on the big day. But with a good, experienced photographer, you can be sure of being well guided and informed.
