    A destination wedding photographer for the Dordogne

    Couples from the UK and abroad who choose a château wedding in the Dordogne want one thing from their photographer: someone they can trust from the first call to the final gallery, in their own language. I handle the photography side of the trip from start to finish, and work hand in hand with your planner so nothing is left to chance.

    My approach is calm, discreet and documentary, with an editorial eye when the light allows. I photograph château weddings across France and beyond — in Provence, the Dordogne, the French Alps and Spain — with the same attention to real moments and natural light.

    Where I photograph in the Dordogne & Périgord

    As a Périgord wedding photographer, I travel to château weddings throughout the Périgord Noir — around Sarlat, Domme, Beynac and La Roque-Gageac — and the Périgord Pourpre, around Bergerac, Eymet and Issigeac.

    For international guests, Bergerac and Bordeaux airports are the usual entry points to South West France. Planning another region? See my Provence wedding photographer page or the guide to wedding venues in Provence & the South of France.

    Dordogne Wedding Photography — FAQ

    How much does a wedding photographer in the Dordogne cost?

    Wedding day coverage, from the day through to the evening, starts from €2,250. Each proposal is then tailored to the length of coverage, the number of days and the options you choose. Send me your date and venue and I'll reply within 24 hours.

    Do you travel to the Dordogne from Marseille?

    Yes. I'm based in Marseille and travel to the Dordogne and Périgord for weddings — I photographed the wedding at Château de Lacoste, near Sarlat. Travel is detailed transparently in your proposal.

    How far in advance should we book?

    Ideally 12 to 18 months ahead, especially for weekends and high-season dates from June to September. That said, it's never too late to ask: I can often photograph weddings booked just a few months before the day, subject to availability.

    Are you an English-speaking photographer?

    Yes — I'm fluent in English, French and Spanish. Planning, the day itself and delivery all happen in your language.

    Can you work with our UK wedding planner?

    Of course. I build the photo timeline together with your planner, so the light, the schedule and the key moments are aligned before the day.

    When will we receive our photos?

    Your complete gallery is delivered within three weeks. With the express delivery option, you receive 50 edited images by noon the next day.
