A wedding in a farmhouse or an estate, a couple session in the ochres, maternity in the lavender: soft evening light and plenty of emotion.

Postcard Provence, without the postcard feel.

The Luberon and the Alpilles mean lavender fields, ochre cliffs, centuries-old olive trees and stone villages. It's beautiful, but what matters is your laughter, the way you look at each other and your dad's tears during the speech. I photograph the setting, and above all what happens in it. And not only weddings: I love taking couples, mums-to-be and families there for a sunset session.

The places

My favourite spots in the Luberon and the Alpilles.

The lavender fields

From mid-June to mid-July, before the harvest. A wedding at that time is a chance for couple portraits among the flowers at sunset.

The ochres of Roussillon and Rustrel

Orange and red cliffs, unique in France. I love doing couple sessions or day-after wedding portraits there.

The hilltop villages

Gordes, Bonnieux, Lourmarin, Ménerbes: stone lanes and views over the whole valley, perfect for a few photos before heading to your venue.

The farmhouses and olive groves of the Alpilles

Around Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Eygalières or Les Baux: stone farmhouses among olive trees, outdoor ceremonies under the trees and a silvery evening light. I photographed a wedding there that I love, from the ceremony under the olive trees to the getaway in a convertible.

Good to know

What to know before you book.

Travel fees

Up to 1 hour's drive from Marseille, it's included. Between 1 hour and 2 h 15: €80 (€55 with the Évidence and Signature packages). I tell you in the quote, with no surprises.

The timeline

Venues are often a little far apart (town hall, church, estate). I go through your timeline so that travel doesn't eat into your best moments.

Lavender season

It usually blooms from mid-June to mid-July, depending on altitude and weather. If it matters to you, we take it into account when choosing the date or the time of your couple portraits.

Your questions

What I'm asked most often.

Tap a question to read the answer.

Where exactly do you travel?

All over the Luberon (Gordes, Roussillon, Bonnieux, Lourmarin, Cucuron, Apt…) and the Alpilles (Saint-Rémy, Eygalières, Les Baux, Maussane…), as well as the rest of Provence. Further afield too, on quote.

Do we need to arrange accommodation for you?

Beyond 2 h 15 of driving, the night is included in the travel fee. For the Luberon and the Alpilles, it's usually not needed.

Can we take photos in the lavender on the wedding day?

If there's a field near your venue and the date is right, yes. Otherwise, we can plan a couple session on another day, in your wedding outfits or not.

Do you do the film?

Yes, with Thomas, my partner. We always work together: one point of contact, one shared way of seeing your day.

Do you deliver an album?

Yes: a 24-page album with thick pages is included in the Évidence and Signature packages, and optional in the others. Parent albums are also available.

Do you do photo sessions in the Luberon or the Alpilles?

Yes: a couple or engagement session in the ochres, maternity in the lavender, family among the olive trees. Prices are the same as in Marseille; depending on the distance, I tell you the travel fee before you book.

Who we are

Léna, and sometimes Thomas with me.

As a former model, I know how it feels in front of the camera. As a former TV journalist, I learned to observe and catch the moment as it happens. Thomas, my partner, films weddings with me.
