Two people. The light of the Gulf.
The rest takes care of itself.
You are on a getaway in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. A honeymoon. A wedding anniversary. Or simply a holiday for two — and the wish to bring home something more than a photo taken at arm's length.
You choose the setting — the streets of Saint-Tropez in the morning, Les Canoubiers at the end of the day, the terrace of your villa at sunset. We spend a moment together. I guide you naturally: a glance, a step to the side, a burst of laughter. No stiff poses. Within minutes, you forget I am there — and that is exactly what we are after.
I have been doing this for twenty years. Every couple is different — and that is exactly why it works. And you speak to me directly: no platform, no intermediary, no commission — the person who replies is the one who photographs you.
My approach
Two styles. One session.
Some photographers do posed portraits. Others swear by candid only. I do not choose — and neither do you.
Candid
A walk hand in hand, a burst of laughter between two directions, a glance exchanged. I work discreetly, in motion — the best images come when you forget I am there.
Composed & editorial
The two of you, placed in the light — the villa terrace, the deck of a yacht, an empty village street. Images built like a magazine series: sharp, elegant, made for your walls and your feed alike.
Every gallery delivers both — in colour and in black & white. Nothing to decide upfront: you choose your favourites afterwards, in front of the images.
How it works.
You get in touch.
By email or phone. I call you back personally within hours. We set the date, the location or locations, and the mood you are after.
We choose the settings.
The streets of Saint-Tropez, Canoubiers beach, your villa, a vineyard in Gassin — I recommend the best spot for the time of day and the season. I send you a styling note for the outfits.
The session.
I guide you naturally — a glance my way, a step to the side, eyes down, a burst of laughter. Within minutes you forget me — and that is exactly when the best photographs happen.

The best spots for two.
The streets of Saint-Tropez
La Ponche, the jetty, the old doorways, the harbour in the background. Early morning or early evening, when the streets empty out. The most photogenic setting in the Gulf.
On the beach
Les Canoubiers in Saint-Tropez, La Nartelle in Sainte-Maxime, the small beaches of Grimaud, the coves of Les Issambres or L'Escalet. Feet in the sand, sunset behind you.
At your villa or your hotel
The terrace, the pool, the garden. More intimate, more personal. In hotels, we find the right corners — a private garden, a quiet pool, a secluded frame. Some of the finest photographs are born in your own setting.
On your yacht, offshore
The deck at sunset, the bay of Canoubiers or Pampelonne in the background, the wake in the golden light. You have the boat — or your broker does — and I come aboard. Few images say Saint-Tropez like these.
In the gardens of a five-star hotel
The umbrella pines, the terraces, the quiet paths at the end of the day. I work in complete discretion — tight framing, secluded corners, never another guest in the frame. The standing of your stay, in your images.
In the vineyards
Gassin, Ramatuelle. The rows of vines, the cypress trees, the light of Provence. A setting like no other.
A secret to keep?
You have the ring. You have the place. What you need is someone to hold that moment forever — without her knowing.
I have photographed proposals all over the Gulf of Saint-Tropez — on the beach, in the old town streets, in five-star hotel gardens, on the deck of a yacht. Every proposal is different. The approach never changes: I am in position before you arrive, completely invisible. She has no idea I exist until the moment she says yes.
Cover story, timing, positioning: every detail is prepared together, in complete confidence. I have created a dedicated page that walks you through how the surprise comes together.
She has no idea how the evening ends.
Proposal sessions from €390 (Signature) or €590 (Riviera, 2 locations).
Plan the surprise → Or call me directly — complete discretionYou are about to live something beautiful. A glance at the end of a jetty. A burst of laughter in an empty street. A sunset in a cove where there was only the two of you. In a few weeks, only an impression will remain — unless someone was there to hold those moments still.

Frequently asked questions.
Most of my clients feel exactly the same. My job is to guide you naturally — a glance, a direction, a movement — until you forget I am there. We walk, we talk, and the best photographs happen when you stop thinking about it.
Wherever you like. The most popular spots: the streets of Saint-Tropez (La Ponche, the jetty), Canoubiers beach, the coves of Grimaud and Les Issambres, Gigaro in La Croix-Valmer, the vineyards of Gassin, the terrace of your villa, or your hotel — there is always a corner with a beautiful frame, a quiet garden or a private pool.
Yes. Surprise proposals are a speciality — on the Canoubiers jetty, in the streets of La Ponche, in the gardens of five-star hotels, on private terraces and yachts across the Gulf. I position myself discreetly with a telephoto lens before you arrive. She does not know I am there until the moment she says yes. I recommend the Riviera format: a couple session in the streets of Saint-Tropez first, then the proposal at sunset on the beach — the whole evening becomes the perfect alibi. We prepare every detail together on a private call.
We set up a call to plan the timing, the spot and the element of surprise. On the day, I arrive early and position myself with a telephoto lens — completely invisible. You walk with your partner to the chosen spot, you propose, and I hold the moment still from a distance. After the yes, I introduce myself and we flow into a relaxed couple session. I recommend starting with a photo session in the streets of Saint-Tropez — she thinks it is a romantic evening. The proposal on the jetty at sunset becomes the grand finale. The whole evening is the alibi.
On the beach, morning between 9 and 11 (fewer people, soft light) or late afternoon from 5pm — still lively, but the mood shifts and the light turns golden around 7–8pm. In the streets of Saint-Tropez, 7–8pm is ideal — the light drops fast between the walls and the atmosphere is magnificent. At a villa, flexible from 9am. For proposals, the end of the day is recommended — golden hour through sunset for the grand finale on the jetty. We set the timing together.
That is the very heart of the packages. The Riviera moves through two settings and up to two outfits — the beach then the village streets, for example. The Prestige crosses three. L'Éditoriale stops counting: the beach as the sun drops, the streets at golden hour, then the deck of your yacht or the gardens of your hotel — up to five outfits, with a mini-moodboard prepared together before the session. Each setting gives a different series: your gallery reads like a magazine editorial, not forty variations of the same photo.
Both, in every session. I compose the editorial portraits in the setting — the two of you placed in the light, the villa or the deck behind you — and between directions, I photograph what actually happens: the laughter, the glances, the walk hand in hand. The gallery delivers both styles, in colour and in black and white, and you choose your favourites.
Coordinated outfits always work best. By the sea: blue and white, stripes, light colours. At a villa or in the streets: white, beige, sand, or pastels. Avoid logos and neon colours. And bring sunglasses — essential. I send you a full styling note after booking.
Of course. I come to you — villa, five-star hotel, yacht, beach. On a yacht, a few details in advance are enough: the deck, the bay, the hour of the light. In hotels, I work in complete discretion — tight framing, quiet corners, never another guest in the frame. Travel is included throughout the Gulf of Saint-Tropez.
Yes. Additional photos are available from your gallery at preferential rates. Many couples order more once they see the results — it is often the best surprise of the session.
Ideally 2 to 3 weeks ahead, especially in summer. But I often have last-minute availability. Get in touch — I make it work. I call back within hours of your request.
