relaxed yet thoughtful approach to creating natural and elegant imagery for stylish couples who value the experience as much as the photographs

Your France wedding is a beautiful mix of emotions, moments, and experiences. It’s a celebration of the two of you, surrounded by your closest loved ones, sharing in this incredible and exciting time in your lives. As a France wedding photographer, my role is to quietly document the care, time, and intention poured into every detail – the months spent meticulously planning – while you stay fully present with the people who matter most. It’s about bringing together your values, traditions, and style to create an experience for you and your guests that is wholeheartedly yours and unforgettable.

As your day unfolds, it’s just as important to document everything in an authentic way. My relaxed, unobtrusive approach as your France wedding photographer allows you to be fully present while feeling completely at ease in front of the camera. I’ll help gently guide you when needed, but I also know when to take a step back and let moments unfold naturally. You’ll receive photographs that are natural yet elegant, full of warmth and emotion – images that truly capture the essence of your day.

“Frances has such a stunning organic style to her work. When we received our photos we were in awe at the romantic and cinematic feel. They look like art rather than just photographs. She was an absolutely golden find.”

My approach as your France wedding photographer

I have a relaxed and unobtrusive approach, blending in with your guests to document your wedding day fully. Capturing the big emotional moments, the small quiet ones, and everything in between. I want you to be fully present on your wedding day, soaking in every moment and celebrating with your favourite people. I love to capture your day in a way that feels natural, effortless, and true to you. Nothing forced or unnatural, just honest and authentic photographs that take you back to how it all felt.

With a love for natural light and an eye for the little details, I create warm, timeless images filled with emotion. More than anything, I want you to feel comfortable and at ease. I want you to enjoy your day knowing I’ve got everything covered. Because when you are relaxed and fully immersed in your day, that’s when the best moments unfold. That’s when the most beautiful, natural, and emotive photographs are captured.

“Frances captured our wedding day with elegance and sophistication, documenting the most special moments flawlessly. She went above and beyond, and we continue to get compliments on our photos. We would choose Frances again in an instant.”
