Whether you are celebrating your wedding in a château in Seine-et-Marne, an orangery in the Yvelines, an estate in Essonne, a hôtel particulier in the Hauts-de-Seine or an intimate venue in the Val-de-Marne…
I travel throughout the Île-de-France region to capture your day from start to finish.

In each of these places, I showcase your world while adapting to the atmosphere, the light and the emotions of your day.
Behind the Lens
A luminous, authentic and editorial style
As a photographer specialising in weddings, my style is built on soft, warm light — I always look for the most beautiful natural conditions to give you luminous, golden images —, natural, timeless colours for an elegant result true to your day, without artifice, and an editorial finish to showcase your wedding: inspired by elegant, contemporary worlds, I highlight your details, your emotions and the aesthetic of your day.
I shoot in RAW with a Canon R6 Mark II to preserve every nuance and every texture. Each photo is designed to combine light, composition and elegance. My style blends sophistication and naturalness, for images worthy of a high-end wedding.
A discreet presence to capture the essential
Your wedding day is unique: my role is to tell its story without ever interrupting it. The couples I accompany describe my presence as discreet, reassuring, attentive, understanding and kind.
I blend into the background so you can fully live your emotions, while I capture the most important moments: glances, tender gestures, bursts of laughter, tears of joy, connection.

An intimate wedding means celebrating your love with a small group, or even just the two of you, in a warm and authentic atmosphere. In Paris, every street, square and garden becomes a unique backdrop for your memories.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Paris & Île-de-France wedding photographer · booking and planning
Before the big day, it is natural to have many questions. Here you will find answers to the questions my couples ask most often, so you can better understand my approach as a wedding photographer in Paris & Île-de-France, how I accompany you and how I capture every moment of your day. My goal is for you to feel confident, serene and fully ready to enjoy every moment.
How do I book you as my wedding photographer in Paris & Île-de-France?
<p data-start="757" data-end="1163">It all begins with a simple, warm conversation. You reach out through my contact form or by email, then we take the time to talk about your day, your venue and the style of images you love.<br data-start="969" data-end="972">If you’d like to entrust me with your wedding, a contract and a deposit secure your date.<br data-start="1071" data-end="1074">I then guide you step by step until the big day, so everything feels smooth and serene.</p>
What are your rates for wedding photography in Île-de-France?
I offer several collections depending on the length of your wedding, the venues, the preparations, the evening and your wishes. Every wedding is different, so I send you a bespoke quote designed around your project and your priorities. My intention is the same for every couple: to give you a complete, artistic and authentic story that stands the test of time. Discover my rates for your wedding in Paris.
What is your photography style?
My style is fine art, editorial, luminous and natural. I love photos full of softness, tender gestures, discreet but sincere emotions, carefully composed details and golden light. I work in a very discreet, almost invisible way, to capture the truth of your moments without disturbing them. The aim: to tell your story elegantly, without stiff poses or artifice.
Where do you work as a wedding photographer in Île-de-France?
I travel throughout Paris and its surroundings (Île-de-France), as well as for destination weddings in France and abroad. Whether for a civil ceremony at the town hall, a religious wedding or a romantic elopement, I adapt to every venue and every atmosphere.
Do you work alone or as a duo?
<p data-start="2544" data-end="2768">I cover most weddings on my own, to keep the gentle, intuitive presence my couples appreciate.<br data-start="2362" data-end="2365">However, for some events (large weddings, getting ready in two different locations…), a second photographer can join me.</p> <h3 data-start="2504" data-end="2543"> </h3>
What equipment do you use?
I shoot with a Canon R6 Mark II, true to my luminous style and my search for refined details. I always bring several cards, batteries and camera bodies to safeguard your memories from start to finish.
Do you offer drone photography on the wedding day?
I offer drone shots when conditions allow. It is a beautiful way to complete your coverage with poetic aerial images: views of the venue, the atmosphere of the estate, the scenography, decorations or key moments captured from a unique angle. I use my drone in full compliance with safety rules, weather conditions and the necessary authorisations, to guarantee a serene and elegant experience. The aerial images remain discreet, harmonious and consistent with my luminous, natural style. We review this together before the wedding to decide the best moments for these shots and to check that the venue allows flying.
How many images do you deliver for a wedding?
<p data-start="2544" data-end="2768">For full wedding coverage, you usually receive between <strong data-start="2925" data-end="2946">400 and 800 photos</strong> — all carefully selected.<br data-start="2975" data-end="2978">Each image is edited with my luminous, warm signature — no “duplicate” shots, only real memories that tell the story of your day with coherence and emotion.</p> <h3 data-start="2504" data-end="2543"> </h3>
How and when will we receive our photos?
Your photos are delivered in a private online gallery, easy to share with your loved ones. You will find high-definition images for your prints, web formats for sharing, and an elegant, intuitive layout. I keep a copy of your images for several months, but I also advise you to make your own personal backups.
Do you travel outside Paris?
<p data-start="3253" data-end="3373">Of course. I travel throughout Île-de-France, across France and even abroad, depending on your plans.<br data-start="3823" data-end="3826">Travel expenses are calculated transparently and included in your quote.</p>
What happens if something unexpected comes up or the weather doesn’t cooperate?
I stay flexible and creative. In case of rain or delays, I make the most of the available light, use alternative atmospheres and remain discreet, so that your wedding photography stays elegant and natural.
What happens if you are unable to attend?
<p data-start="4014" data-end="4300">I take my role very seriously and do everything I can to be there, whatever happens.<br data-start="4100" data-end="4103">In case of force majeure, I can call on a professional photographer I fully trust, to ensure your coverage remains of the same quality.</p>
Do you offer engagement sessions in Paris and throughout Île-de-France?
Yes — and it is one of my favourite services. An engagement session lets us get to know each other better, helps you feel completely at ease in front of the camera, creates soft, natural, timeless photos before the wedding, and gives you a special moment together in a place that suits you. It is also a lovely way to personalise your invitations or wedding website.
Do you offer high-end wedding albums?
<p data-start="4383" data-end="4470">Yes, I create elegant, handcrafted albums made with durable materials and clean, refined layouts.<br data-start="5060" data-end="5063">Each album is designed as a treasured keepsake to be leafed through with family, year after year.</p>
How do we know if we’re right for each other?
<p data-start="5276" data-end="5552">If you love natural, heartfelt, luminous images…<br data-start="5336" data-end="5339">If you’re looking for someone discreet, reassuring and attentive…<br data-start="5406" data-end="5409">If you want coverage that captures the essence of your day without staging…<br data-start="5498" data-end="5501">Then we’re probably a beautiful match.</p><p data-start="5554" data-end="5663">I always offer an initial conversation to help you picture it all and feel fully confident.</p>

“It was a real pleasure!”
We were lucky enough to do a photo shoot with Séverine at the Louvre and at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Séverine was very professional throughout the shoot and in guiding us with poses.
Finally, Séverine is very responsive with retouching and delivering the final result!
