Domaine de la Solencière, Béziers
A ride back in a 2 CV with the children, dinner beneath a tent and dancing under the stars at Domaine de la Solencière.
From getting ready at Domaine de la Solencière to the church ceremony in Béziers, I photographed Pauline and Florent throughout their wedding day. Back at the domaine, the celebrations continued outdoors, ending with dancing under the stars.
A wedding in Béziers
I joined Pauline and Florent at Domaine de la Solencière as they got ready, before accompanying them to the church in Béziers for the ceremony. Their return to the domaine in a 2 CV with the children remains a particularly memorable part of the day.
After the ceremony, everyone gathered at the domaine for an outdoor drinks reception, followed by dinner beneath a tent. This family celebration continued with dancing under the stars. In these photographs, I wanted to give the children and loved ones their place in the story, along with those shared moments when no one is thinking about the camera.
Through my eyes
01
Throughout the day, I stay close to the couple and their guests without interrupting their conversations or time together. I look for spontaneous photographs that reflect their personalities and what they are experiencing.
02
The drinks reception, dinner beneath a tent and dancing all took place outdoors. These parts of the celebration brought the domaine’s surroundings into the photographs, while keeping the couple and their guests at the heart of them.
03
Every gesture and glance matters. I pay attention to the small scenes that tell the story of the day, from getting ready through to the dancing.
04
I follow the pace of the day and respond to moments as they happen, rather than trying to direct them. The photographs grow out of the experiences the couple share with the people closest to them.
