Paris Wedding & Elopement Photographer

Editorial and documentary wedding photography in Paris, France

For couples drawn to beautiful places, genuine moments and photographs that feel both effortless and timeless.

Your Paris story, beautifully documented

Paris has a way of making ordinary moments feel extraordinary.

Whether you are planning an intimate civil wedding, an elopement for two, or a destination wedding surrounded by your closest people, I will be there to document the atmosphere, the emotions and all the little moments that make your celebration yours.

As a Paris wedding and elopement photographer, my approach combines the honesty of documentary photography with an editorial eye for light, composition and detail.

The result is a collection of photographs that feels natural, elegant and deeply personal.

 

Weddings & elopements in Paris

Civil weddings

A Paris civil ceremony can be beautifully intimate.

From the mairie to a walk along the Seine, a champagne toast or dinner in one of Paris’ beautiful neighbourhoods, I document the day as it unfolds — without turning it into a series of posed photographs.

Paris Elopements

Just the two of you, or a handful of people you love most.

Your Paris elopement can be quiet and intimate or full of movement and discovery. From getting ready in a beautiful Parisian hotel to wandering through the streets after your ceremony, I photograph the experience as a story rather than simply a collection of portraits.

Intimate & Destination Weddings

Paris is an incredible setting for a destination wedding.

Whether you are planning an intimate celebration or a full wedding weekend, I can photograph everything from the anticipation of getting ready to the last moments of the evening.

I regularly work with couples travelling to France from the UK, the US and beyond, and I am comfortable working in both English and French.

A documentary approach with an editorial eye

I don’t want your photographs to feel overly posed or disconnected from what actually happened.

Instead, I want you to remember how the day felt.

The nervous excitement before your ceremony.

The way your partner looked at you when you weren’t expecting it.

Your friends laughing around the dinner table.

The texture of your dress, the flowers, the architecture, the light falling across a Parisian street.

I look for those moments while also creating space for a few beautifully considered portraits when they feel right.

Natural when it matters. Editorial when it adds something. Always personal.

Paris, beyond the postcard

Paris doesn’t need much introduction, but there is so much more to photograph than the Eiffel Tower.

The quiet streets of Saint-Germain-des-Prés.

The gardens of the Tuileries.

The architecture of the Palais Royal.

The intimate atmosphere of Le Marais.

A morning along the Seine.

A beautiful Parisian hotel.

Or simply getting lost together in a neighbourhood you love.

I am interested in photographing your Paris, rather than recreating someone else’s.

Couple & Engagement Photography in Paris

Not every Paris story needs to be a wedding.

I also photograph couples travelling to Paris for an engagement, honeymoon, anniversary or simply to create beautiful photographs together. These sessions are relaxed and editorial, with plenty of movement and very little forced posing.

Think of it as spending an hour or two exploring Paris together while I document the experience.

Photographs that tell the whole story

Your gallery should feel like more than a selection of beautiful images.

It should bring you back to the atmosphere of the day.

The anticipation.

The people.

The details.

The laughter.

The quiet moments.

The unexpected ones.

And, of course, the two of you.

My goal is to create a gallery that feels honest, elegant and timeless, while still reflecting the personality of your celebration.

Hello, I’m Anne

I’m Anne, a French wedding photographer based in Normandy, between Paris and the Normandy coast.

I photograph weddings, elopements and couples throughout Paris, Normandy and across France.

My work sits somewhere between documentary photography and fashion-inspired editorial imagery. I love beautiful light, elegant details and wonderful locations, but above all, I want photographs to feel real.

I work in both English and French and particularly enjoy photographing couples travelling to France for their wedding or elopement.

Whether you’re planning a quiet Paris elopement or an intimate destination wedding, I would love to hear what you have in mind.
