Bergerac Weddings, in Vineyard Country.

Wedding photographer in Bergerac

Bergerac is a wine town on the Dordogne river, in the south-west of the Dordogne, with vineyards and stone châteaux spread across the countryside around it. Its small airport has direct flights from the UK, which makes it an easy base for guests.

I drive over from Bordeaux, about an hour and a half away. Around Bergerac I’ve photographed weddings at Château Lacanaud near Eymet, Château Naudou and Château La Colombière. Days here are usually outdoors from start to finish: ceremonies on the lawn, drinks under parasols, portraits in the courtyards.

The town

The old quarter by the river has half-timbered houses and small squares, good for an engagement session or a walk together the morning after.

The estates

Venues around Bergerac are spread out, with lawns, courtyards and outbuildings rather than one grand room. That means short walks between each part of the day and space for guests to spread out.

Light

Pale stone and open horizons keep the light steady and forgiving, especially from late afternoon into the evening.

Season

May to early October is the most reliable stretch. June and September are the most comfortable for guests and the easiest for light.

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!!”
