THREE DAYS IN SAINT-TROPEZ
A Tailored Proposal · 3–5 July 2026
Dear Miranda
Thank you for entrusting me with the photography and videography coordination of this celebration.
The three days you are preparing in Saint-Tropez are more than a birthday — they are a reunion. Sixty people who matter most, in the same place, at the same time. That doesn't happen often.
That's exactly what I photograph. The hug at the beach club when someone arrives. The look between two people during a speech. The kids running between tables at dinner. The moment just before the cake, when the whole room is together and nobody's checking their phone.
No forced poses. No staged smiles. Just the celebration as it is — in the Mediterranean light of early July.
Over three days, I'll capture thousands of images across your four locations: portraits, friends, couples, family groupings, and everything in between — using two professional cameras, multiple lenses, and discreet flash for the evening coverage at the restaurant.
For the video side, I coordinate a professional cinematic partner. You deal with one person — me — from the first brief to the final delivery.
Below, everything designed specifically for your three days.

We finalise the brief
Venues, timing, family configuration. I coordinate directly with your four locations so nothing is left to chance.
The three days
I work in two ways at once: wide shots to capture the places and the atmosphere, telephoto from a distance to catch the real emotions without anyone noticing. I also direct portraits — full family, couples, siblings, friends. And whenever you want a photograph with someone specific, just ask. I'm right there.

Videography · Coordinated
Cinematic coverage for all three days
I've reached out to several award-winning cinematic filmmakers based on the French Riviera, each with extensive experience on luxury multi-day events across the Côte d'Azur. I'm currently finalising the best options for your celebration.
A dedicated video proposal will follow shortly, with 2–3 packages and sample reference films so you can preview the quality and style before making any decision.
Estimated range: €8,500 – €12,000 depending on the scope of film deliverables (from a cinematic highlight film with speeches coverage to a full cinematic documentary with long edit and drone).
Full transparency: these are the videographers' direct rates, inclusive of their VAT. I do not take any commission or markup on the video component. What they charge is exactly what you pay. My role on the video side is purely coordination — ensuring the right partner is on site, briefed, and aligned with the overall aesthetic of the photography.

Booking
How to confirm
Step 1 — Photography
Choose your photography package and confirm with a 50% retainer. This secures the three dates in my calendar. Balance of 50% due on the final day of coverage.
Step 2 — Videography
Once you've reviewed the video options, confirm with a separate 50% retainer for the video component. Balance of 50% due on the final day.
Payment by international wire transfer, or card payment via secure terminal. Balance payable by card, transfer, or cash.
We are now approaching peak summer season. July is my busiest period in Saint-Tropez, and the cinematographers I work with are typically fully committed by mid-May. I've provisionally held the three dates in my calendar — to guarantee availability for both photography and video, I'd recommend confirming within 5 to 7 days.
Terms & Conditions shared upon confirmation.
About the Photographer
Ludovic · Le Photographe
I've been photographing for twenty years, across many countries and styles. Since 2024, I've been based in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, where I work with international families who come together for a week or two in a villa — and want to bring something home that lasts longer than a suntan.
I work in two ways at once. Wide-angle to capture the places, the atmosphere, the energy of the room. Telephoto from a distance to catch the real emotions — the looks, the laughs, the unguarded moments — without anyone noticing I'm there. And whenever someone wants a photograph with a particular person, I'm right there. Just ask.
That's what I'll do for your family on 3–5 July.
