Book a Photo Shoot in Provence!
Vacation Photography
Vacation photography is a growing genre of photography offered by professional photographers living all over the world. Selfies are great but they don’t compare to professional photos.
I know so many couples or families that don’t have any good photos of everyone in the frame. That is where I come in…
How Does it Work?
We decide on a stunning backdrop for your photos depending on where you’re staying in the region or where you’re visiting that day. Photo shoots are generally in the morning or evening to take advantage of the golden light. Trust me, it’s worth it.
Where are the Photo Shoots?
Photo shoots are generally in the Luberon or Alpilles regions. Keep in mind that the Côte d’Azur (Nice, St Tropez etc) is a little far from here.
If you’ve rented a villa and would like a photo shoot on the property, that is no problem.
The most popular destinations are hilltop towns combined with a nearby landscape that includes either lavender fields, sunflowers, mountains, olive groves or vineyards depending on the time of year.
How Long Are the Photo Shoots?
After coordination and date and location, you pick the length of the photo shoot. This ranges anywhere from 30 minutes to a whole day, with 1 or 1.5 hours being the most popular. The longer the photo shoot, the more locations we can explore. Combining photos of both the countryside and a beautiful hilltop town is ideal.
What do I Wear?
On the day of the shoot, you meet me wearing whatever makes you feel pretty at the designated location. High heels are often tricky on cobblestones or fields, but possible for the determined. I would suggest wearing lighter colours, something evocative of Provence! Wardrobe changes are no problem.
The meeting points are chosen with care so that you can find the spot easily, such as a local café. Or, in the situation of a surprise photo shoot in a field or other such romantic secluded location, (in the case of a proposal photo shoot) we make sure that the hopeful groom/bride to be knows where’s they’re going!
My Style
The photo shoots are great fun and clients often comment that the photo shoot was the highlight of their Provence experience. I provide a relaxed atmosphere during the photo shoot with a priority on capturing natural reactions and joy. Nothing too posed.
When and How Do You Receive the Photos?
The edited digital files are delivered to you within 12 working days and often sooner. This quick turn around time allows you to share with your loved ones memories from your vacation as soon as you get back home. Turnaround is closer to 3 weeks in July, during lavender season due to high demand.
How Much Does it Cost?
Photo shoots range in price from 180€ (30 minutes) to 650€ (half day flat rate fee). Prices may change depending on the location of the photo shoot so don’t hesitate to email me for more information. Possibility to add a picnic, or rosé champagne for a special occasion.
