Our Recent
reviews
Their professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were outstanding. They blended seamlessly into the day while making sure we got all the photos we wanted, and the final gallery exceeded all our expectations. Every image tells the story of our wedding beautifully, and we'll treasure them for a lifetime.
We couldn't recommend Chris and Jo more highly. If you're looking for photographers who are talented, friendly, and genuinely passionate about what they do, they're the perfect choice. Thank you both for giving us memories we'll cherish forever!
Our photos and wedding video are beyond anything we could have imagined — every time we watch it back or look through our pictures, we get emotional all over again. They perfectly captured the atmosphere, love, and all the little moments we never want to forget.
Not only are they amazingly talented, but they are also such lovely people to have around on your wedding day. So many of our guests commented on how friendly and professional they were.
We are so grateful to have these memories forever and honestly cannot recommend Chris and Jo enough. Thank you both for giving us something we will treasure for the rest of our lives 🤍
Nous lui avons donc confié la réalisation de nouvelles photos et d’une vidéo de notre domaine, et le résultat nous a bluffés ! Les images reflètent parfaitement la magie et l’atmosphère du château.
Chris fait partie de ces photographes qui savent sublimer tout ce qu’ils photographient, avec un regard juste et naturel. En plus, c’est un vrai plaisir de travailler avec lui : toujours de bonne humeur, discret mais présent, il met tout le monde à l’aise, notamment les couples le jour J.
Nous le recommandons sans hésitation !
The balance of posed shots and mostly candid photos was exactly what we hoped for, they truly captured the essence and emotion of our day. Their presence was so subtle and unobtrusive that many of our guests even commented on how natural everything felt.
Both Chris and Jo were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Jo, in particular, was amazing at keeping me calm after a getting-ready mishap before the ceremony, she made sure I was relaxed and that everything flowed seamlessly.
Our photos and video are absolutely stunning, and we couldn’t be happier with them. Thank you, Chris & Jo, for capturing our day so beautifully and giving us memories we’ll treasure forever.

Destination Wedding Photography in Dordogne & Across France
Our
style
Our wedding photography style focuses on natural skin tones, soft light and a timeless, elegant edit.

We blend documentary coverage with gentle direction for portraits, so you get real, relaxed moments plus a few hero images to frame.

Wedding **21** took us to a beautiful private home deep in the countryside of **South West France** 🇫🇷🌿 for **Florrie & Paul’s** unforgettable wedding day.
Their ceremony took place opposite Florrie’s childhood home 🏡, making it an incredibly personal and emotional setting, full of treasured memories. ❤️
With **160 guests**, a stunning marquee provided the perfect place to dine 🍽️, celebrate 🥂 and dance 💃🕺 long into the night—while a dramatic storm rolled in around 10pm ⛈️.
And one moment we’ll never forget... this was the **first time we’ve ever had a bride climb through a window** to make her entrance! 😂🪟 It was completely unexpected, totally unique, and perfectly summed up the fun and relaxed atmosphere of the day.
Congratulations, Florrie & Paul! ❤️
**Ciao ciao for now!** 👋✨

Wedding 16 took us back to the beautiful Château Saint Paul for Ella & Callum’s incredible wedding day ✨
This time the weather was a little kinder, but the atmosphere was just as amazing! One of the highlights had to be the surprise singing waiters 🎤🎶 — they had everyone on their feet and created memories that won’t be forgotten anytime soon.
From start to finish, the whole day flowed perfectly, surrounded by family, friends, laughter, and plenty of happy tears ❤️
A huge thank you, as always, to all the fantastic suppliers who helped make the day so special. It’s always a team effort 🙌

Stevie and Jay brought the UK party to Château du Raysse! At 40°C, it wasn’t easy—but wardrobe malfunctions, endless laughter and serious dance-floor energy made it unforgettable. Huge thanks to the brilliant guests and suppliers who kept everything running smoothly despite the heat. What a day! 🔥🥂

Wedding gallery 5 delivered 📸
Alex and Evan were married at the beautiful Château de Lacoste on 23rd May, and what a day it was.
It was unusually hot for that time of year, so their huge marquee was an absolute lifesaver, giving everyone some much-needed shade for the meal, speeches and evening party ☀️
The château looked incredible, the atmosphere was relaxed and happy, and the whole day had that proper South West France wedding feel.
Then, just when we thought the setting couldn’t get much better, a flotilla of hot air balloons drifted past the venue 🎈
They weren’t officially part of the wedding celebrations, but they timed it perfectly and made for some amazing drone photos of the château and surrounding countryside.
A proper little bonus moment for Alex and Evan’s gallery.
As always thanks to all the other suppliers for a great day.

Harriet & David were married at the beautiful Château de Saint Paul in May.
With family and friends travelling from Scotland and New Zealand, the atmosphere was incredible from start to finish. The sun shone all day, Harriet looked effortlessly beautiful, and David looked every bit the Highlander in his tartan kilt.
A fantastic day with wonderful people. ❤️
