After over 10 years of being together, R&S have built a home, life and family in California and decided to finally make it official in France. "We wanted to share this experience with those that are dear to us". Covid made their plans change several times. They even had to choose a new wedding venue, which turned out to be even more perfect than their first choice. The origins of Chateau de Clerbise, where they finally celebrated the wedding, can be traced back to the 12th century and the remains of a Romanesque chapel still stand in the grounds.

This beautiful Korean wedding in pastel colours took place at Chateau de Dangu and Mairie du XVI in Paris. The religious ceremony was celebrated at Eglise Saint Jean de Baptiste at the small town of Dangu, next to the reception chateau. J&H had to reschedule their wedding multiple times due to the covid restrictions, but we stayed in touch for 3 years and they ended up having the celebration they dreamed about in France.

Venice, the city I visit several times every year - to say how much I love it and know every street of it! I was very excited to shoot this elopement for two. The couple exchanged their vows during a gondola ride and had the best early morning time photo shoot around the City of Canals creating lifetime memories of them being happy together getting lost in the small streets, enjoying gorgeous views of San Marco, eating gelato...

Un mariage intimiste à la mairie du 3ème arrondissement de Paris avec une séance de photos de couple et petite réception à la maison. La preuve qu'on peut avoir un beau mariage malgré le Covid.

Covid-19 made intimate and private home weddings a new trend. Chateau Forge du Roy, a vacation rental chateau in the historic and picturesque Dordogne department, is a nice place for an intimate home-style wedding. A rainy day added even more "Monet" inspiration to this day.

We wanted to highlight the black woman in the fine art wedding industry: often hidden and yet so beautiful and elegant. And what could be better for doing this than choosing two most iconic Parisian places for this shoot: The Trocadero with an Eiffel Tower view and The Louvre. Respecting the French “art de Vivre,” we also couldn't resist a cup of coffee in a local café.

Paris is considered to be one of the most romantic destinations in the world. Also known as the City of Love, it has been the setting for many films, and lovers around the world visit in their thousands to stroll down its streets, picnic next to the Eiffel Tower, and cosy up in little cafés with a coffee or glass of wine. There is always something new to see in Paris, so even if you’ve been there before with your partner, it can still be the perfect place to propose. There’s something for everyone, whether you want a private proposal or if you’re keen to drop to one knee in front of a crowd. Here are three top tips for proposing in Paris that will make your partner feel like they’re in a film of their own.
