The 10 steps : from the initial meeting to the delivery of your photos

Hiring me involves far more than just an initial contact, signing a quote, my presence on your wedding day, and the delivery of your photo gallery.

I work with you for weeks—sometimes even months—leading up to the event!

A proven process for an experience that meets your expectations

Throughout my career, I have constantly strived to improve—both to streamline the workflow on your wedding day and, above all, to deliver an experience that lives up to your dreams.

To ensure a memorable experience and exceptional photos, we need to start planning at least two months in advance. This allows us to anticipate the layout of your venue, the flow of key moments throughout the day, and coordinate with various vendors and loved ones.

My approach is detailed in the Wedding guide I created for the couples who place their trust in me. It contains nearly 30 tips for stress-free wedding preparation, covering every stage of the day—from getting ready to the evening reception.

Even if I am booked only a few weeks before your wedding, my adaptability and work ethic allow me to get up to speed quickly. However, reaching out several months in advance will certainly make the process less stressful for you!

My working method has proven its effectiveness, contributing to the success of countless wedding shoots.
