You don’t want to forget your wedding

The preparations for your wedding in the South of France are underway, and all your loved ones will be there. This hasn’t happened in years.

So you don’t want the memories of this day to fade with time. You don’t want the pictures of this day to stay on your phone, and you certainly don’t want Aunt Sheila taking charge of the couple’s photos—it might be better if she didn’t talk at all, for that matter.

But the idea of spending the day saying “cheese” in front of the camera doesn’t really appeal to you either.

By the way, my name is Thibault, I’m a French wedding photographer, and the bride and groom call me “the guest who takes pictures.” I create wedding reports and high-end photo albums so that your memories will live on for generations to come.

A photographer who blends in.

He fits into your day, not the other way around.

Concrete memories

Tangible memories that are not erased during an update.

Beautiful photos that tell stories

Refined, human, authentic.

Testimonials

South of France couple session

“What touched us most when we first looked at Thibault’s photo album was the quality of the reportage, which allowed us to relive our wedding day in its entirety.

With discretion (which was greatly appreciated by our guests), Thibault always knew how to be in the right place at the right time.

The photos are natural, full of movement, emotion and life.

The black and white photos of our preparations capture moments of grace and complicity for eternity.”

Audrey & Corentin

“A unique perspective! Thibault captures the beauty of the moment! Artistic beauty, it’s true, he sees it! It draws him in!

Let’s also talk about the beauty of knowing glances, of facial expressions that tell a story and express the emotion of the moment. Emotion that also contains a whole story and reveals its sacred meaning.

Thibault immerses himself in your world to capture the essence of what is happening! An unexpected man and an unexpected work. For lovers of authenticity, beauty, contrasts and light, laughter, we recommend Thibault with strength and conviction!”

“One word: Extraordinary

I recommend him without hesitation! From the initial contact to the delivery of the photos, everything was handled masterfully by Thibault! He is a professional with a capital P, human, authentic, and on top of that, he takes sumptuous photos! Do you want authentic photos, taken on the spot, that will allow you to relive every moment, every emotion, every sensation when you look at them?

Choose Thibault! We spent a magical afternoon and evening that he perfectly captured. Thank you again, Thibault, for your work and for who you are!”

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a Wedding Photographer cost

Prices depend on the services you choose and the length of your wedding.

I offer different packages starting at €2,100 and will explain everything they include during an introductory video call.

Do you propose editorial wedding photography in the South of France ?

I photograph with a documentary mindset and an editorial sensibility. I work from what is real and stage scenes only when necessary and when the moment is right.

How long after the wedding will we receive the photos?

I deliver a selection of the best moments 72 hours after the big day. The complete gallery is delivered one month after the wedding.
The book production (photo selection and layout) begins after the wedding season, usually in October.

Where do you travel to in South of France ?

Based in Occitanie, I photograph weddings across the South of France, from Toulouse to the French Riviera, and throughout Europe. Wherever you’re getting married, I’ll be there.
I regularly work in Montpellier, Toulouse, Nîmes, Avignon, Béziers, Perpignan and Pézenas. I also cover Provence, the French Riviera, Corsica, and destination weddings in Italy and Spain.

Do you speak English ?

Mais oui bien sûr ! With a charming French accent. I am fully bilingual in French and English, which makes a real difference for international or mixed couples getting married in the South of France.

Do you share full wedding report galleries ?

I detail some weddings in the stories section of my website. During our first meeting, I will share various complete galleries based on the location and atmosphere you have in mind.

When is the best time of day for couple photos on a wedding day in the South of France?

In most cases, the best time for couple photos is during golden hour, just before sunset. Light becomes softer, warmer and more flattering, which is ideal for natural and elegant images.

However, golden hour timing changes every day and can vary significantly depending on your location, whether you are in Provence, Occitanie or on the French Riviera.

To help couples plan this moment properly, I created a dedicated guide with daily updated golden hour times for the South of France: South of France Golden Hour Guide
