Couples Photographer in Ardèche
Engagement, honeymoon and vacation sessions in southern France.
Maybe you've just got engaged. Maybe you're spending your honeymoon in a stone mas at the edge of the Ardèche gorges. Maybe you simply rented a villa for a week and you don't want the only trace of it to be a phone selfie taken at arm's length.
I'm a French photographer based in Ruoms, in southern Ardèche. I've been working with couples since 2019 — locals and travelers alike — in a quiet, editorial, fine-art style. Nothing posed for the sake of it, no awkward direction. Just real moments, slowed down, in the light of southern France.
Sessions take place across the whole department, in the gorges, in medieval villages, in lavender fields or at the Ruoms studio. I also travel into Provence, Drôme and the Camargue on request.

IconicThe Pont d'Arc & Ardèche Gorges
The natural stone arch over the Ardèche river. River beaches, dramatic cliffs, soft morning light. A signature location for editorial couple sessions.
Golden hourVallon-Pont-d'Arc village
Medieval streets, stone alleys and warm façades — beautifully cinematic in the golden hour just before sunset.
Plus beaux villagesVogüé
Listed as one of the most beautiful villages in France. A castle perched above the river, narrow lanes, romantic light at every corner.

Practical questions
Frequently asked questions
Do you speak English?
Yes. English is not my native language, but I've worked with couples from the UK, the US, the Netherlands and Germany. The whole booking, session and delivery happens in English — please reach out in English directly.
How far in advance should we book?
3 to 6 weeks in advance is ideal, especially for sessions in July and August. For lavender field sessions (late June to mid-July), book as early as possible — the window is narrow.
Can you travel to our vacation rental?
Yes. I cover the whole of Ardèche, Drôme, Gard, Vaucluse and Hérault. Travel is included within a 50 km radius of the Ruoms studio; a small fee may apply beyond that.
When will we receive our photos?
Within 3 to 4 weeks of the session. You receive a private online gallery with high-resolution downloads and the option to order prints from the studio.
Can we order prints?
Yes. Premium fine-art prints, framed pieces and photo books are available directly from the gallery, produced in partnership with French and European fine-art labs.
