FAQ
Do you cover the whole French Riviera?
Yes — Antibes, Saint-Tropez, Monaco, Cap-Ferrat, Mougins, Grasse, and nearby Cannes/Nice.
What’s the best time for portraits?
Golden hour is ideal. Midday works in open shade — hotel arcades, gardens, or pine stands.
Do you shoot film as well as digital?
Yes. I use film for tone and texture, digital for speed and low-light — you get the best of both.
How do we book?
Share your date and venue — I’ll send availability and a simple booking link. Get in touch.
Do you travel for pre-wedding sessions?
Yes — sunrise/sunset sessions across the Riviera, from Cap d’Antibes to Saint-Tropez beaches and Monaco viewpoints.
Can you help with timelines and light?
Absolutely. I’ll map venue light and suggest a timeline that keeps portraits quick and the rest candid.
