Getting married in Saint-Malo and on the Emerald Coast

The Saint-Malo country holds some of the finest reception venues in Brittany — the malouinières, the eighteenth-century shipowners’ residences surrounded by parkland, the granite manor houses of the hinterland, the estates facing the bay. The ramparts, the Sillon beach, the Grand Bé and the Rothéneuf headland offer powerful maritime settings for couple photos — provided you make friends with the wind and the tide.

My approach

A documentary eye.

To marry facing the sea is to accept that the light and the sky make some of the decisions for you. That is precisely what makes the strongest images — I wait for them rather than force them.

Frequently asked questions.

How much does a wedding photographer in Saint-Malo cost?
Four clear packages, from €1,199 to €1,899 — each includes the town hall, a group session, a mini couple session, at least 500 HD photos in a private gallery and WEDBOX, the guest page. If your day calls for something different, I compose a bespoke quote.
Do you cover Saint-Malo and the whole of the Ille-et-Vilaine?
Yes. Based in Saint-Lô, I photograph weddings in Saint-Malo and across the whole of the Ille-et-Vilaine, as well as throughout Brittany. Travel fees may apply (€0.40 per kilometre), always set out clearly in the quote.
What is your wedding photography style?
A documentary approach: I do not stage and I do not impose poses. I capture the real moments of the day — the emotions, the glances, the spontaneous instants — in natural light.
How do I book a photographer for my wedding in Saint-Malo?
Get in touch as early as possible with your date: peak-season Saturdays go quickly. After an initial conversation and a personalised estimate, the booking is confirmed with a deposit.
