Wedding photographer at Château du Taillan

Observing the day as it unfolds, without interruption

I photograph weddings in a documentary way, following the day rather than directing it. At Château du Taillan, this approach works naturally. The estate allows events to progress at their own pace, with moments spreading between the château, cellars, and gardens. Having photographed here, I know when to step back and when to move closer, working quietly as interactions happen, light shifts, and the atmosphere builds without intervention.
