Your French Wedding, Captured with Elegance.

A wedding photographer in France

Photography is not just about beautiful images - it’s about creating memories that feel alive every time you look at them.

I’m Dina, a wedding and engagement photographer in France.

For me every project is a conversation, where we capture truth with an honest eye.

I work to capture the beauty, emotion, and magic of your wedding day, creating photographs that are both timeless and deeply personal.

My philosophy is built on understanding each couple, listening to their vision, and blending it with my own editorial style to produce authentic imagery that becomes a legacy for future generations.

As a wedding, pre-wedding, and fashion photographer in France, I specialise in destination weddings that unite cinematic artistry with genuine emotion. Travel is at the heart of my work - from intimate elopements in Paris to châteaux in Provence and celebrations around the world, I go wherever your story unfolds.

Storytelling
Not the photos. The stories.

Refined compositions with a timeless touch
Destination Expertise
Deep knowledge of France’s most iconic and intimate wedding locations

Recent Weddings

The six most recent weddings in the portfolio, from Château Belle Époque and Château Gassies near Bordeaux to Château d’Oche in the Dordogne and Saint-Paul-de-Vence. Each story follows the whole day in order: the preparations, the vows, the portraits in the evening light and the dancing that came after.

What couples say

“Dina was our Photographer in June '25 in the Dordogne, and she was amazing. So easy to meet her online, organise all of the details easily, and then send her photos we wanted in preparation. She also worked really well with our videographer, and made sure we got every photo we needed. Highly recommend!!”

Where I photograph

I am based in Bordeaux, and most of my weddings take place in the châteaux of Bordeaux and the Dordogne. I also travel for weddings in Provence, on the French Riviera, in Occitanie, the Loire Valley and Paris, and further across Europe whenever a couple asks me to.

Bordeaux

Home. Eight châteaux among the vines of Saint-Émilion, the Médoc and the Entre-Deux-Mers, from Château de Garde to Château Rigaud.

Dordogne

Ten châteaux, from Lacanaud and Lacoste to d’Oche and Rigoulières. Long June evenings, vineyards, and many English-speaking couples marrying around Bergerac and Eymet.

Provence

Stone bastides, olive groves and lavender fields. Château de Robernier near Brignoles, and garden weddings around Aix-en-Provence in early summer.

French Riviera

Villas above the sea from Nice to Saint-Paul-de-Vence, where the light stays soft and golden long after the sun drops behind the hills.

Occitanie

Château du Puis es Pratx and the wine country around Béziers and Narbonne. Warm stone, wide open skies and long late-summer evenings.

Loire Valley

Allure du Lac and the river châteaux between Nantes and Angers. Formal gardens, pale tufa stone and gentle light from morning to dusk.

Paris

Pre-wedding sessions and intimate elopements: early walks along the Seine, quiet Montmartre streets and the Tuileries before the crowds arrive.
