“My ultimate goal as a photographer is to create images that break away from the traditional clichés of wedding photography. I focus on capturing genuine emotions and fleeting moments, while embracing a distinctive aesthetic. My aim is to provide you with striking images that tell your story and leave you with the most cherished memories of your special day.”
Jean-Baptiste Chauvin | Professional based in Paris since 2015
I often tell my couples that I have the privilege of doing one of the most beautiful jobs in the world! Witnessing the heartfelt exchange of vows between two people deeply in love, seeing a parent moved to tears as they watch their child get married, or hearing a best man deliver a profoundly touching speech—these moments are incredibly powerful. The adrenaline and emotions they evoke are truly extraordinary for me.
Every wedding is an opportunity to get closer to love, friendship, passion, joy, and everything you and your guests share on this unique day. By your side throughout the day, I have a front-row seat to this intense and moving emotional journey—a spectacle that, year after year, has made me fall in love with my craft all over again.
Wedding photographer in Île-de-France, I approach wedding photography with a documentary style. I discreetly capture your day in the manner of a vibrant reportage, never interfering with my subjects to ensure a natural and spontaneous result. This authenticity allows your photos to reflect the emotions that are truly yours, unique to who you are.
Being a wedding photographer means having an eye for detail, tirelessly observing and anticipating everything as it unfolds—capturing a glance, catching a smile, freezing a fleeting moment, a burst of laughter, or a playful situation.
Time inevitably carries away many memories. A wedding photo reportage is the guarantee of preserving the most beautiful moments of your day. It’s about contributing to the creation of your family’s visual legacy, offering a way to leave behind an heirloom for your loved ones to cherish for generations to come.
Connection is key! Feeling completely at ease with your photographer is essential, as it allows you to fully express the emotions you want to shine through. That’s why it’s so important to meet beforehand, get to know each other, and build a trusting relationship together. Wedding dates are often booked far in advance—sometimes over a year ahead—so don’t wait too long to secure your date!
Having the privilege of working with dozens of couples each year also enables me to offer valuable advice on many aspects of your wedding day: the ideal timing for your schedule, how to organize group photos and couple portraits, or even popular dinner entertainment ideas.
I work throughout Île-de-France and around the world. If you’re looking for your wedding photographer in the IDF region, feel free to reach out now to secure my availability!
or several years, I have had the honor of taking part in international wedding photography competitions. These contests are more than just challenges among peers—they are an incredible opportunity for self-reflection, creative growth, and staying curious about the ever-evolving trends in the industry.
By measuring my work against that of other talented professionals, I’ve been able to refine my style, experiment with new techniques, and remain at the cutting edge of innovation in wedding photography.

We live in a digital age, surrounded by an overwhelming number of digital photos. Your wedding photos deserve to stand out! Technology is constantly evolving—CDs are obsolete, USB ports are changing, and even JPEG formats are gradually being replaced. As a photographer, I’m fully aware of the limitations of digital storage, and it’s impossible to guarantee the long-term preservation of your memories on digital devices alone.
That’s why I believe wedding albums are essential. During our meeting, I will introduce you to beautiful handcrafted wedding albums, which I consider an indispensable way to preserve your photos.
These albums are carefully crafted in the finest professional workshops and made with premium materials, ensuring your photos are preserved in the best possible way to stand the test of time. A true must-have for cherishing your memories for generations to come!
Each year, I learn from some of the best wedding photographers worldwide to ensure I provide you with the highest quality service and images.
On your wedding day, thousands of photos will be captured. Every single image will be carefully edited to create a high-quality, cohesive look for your photo reportage. Some images (like bridal portraits, couple shots, etc.) will require extra attention. This is why your final collection will need a few days of editing before you can see it.
Since 2016, I’ve been a certified professional drone operator and photographer, registered with the DGAC, adding a unique dimension to your photo reportage. When your reception venue deserves it, aerial shots will truly enhance your album (insurance, flight permissions, and regulatory procedures included).
