Editorial wedding photography brings attention to light, composition and the way a story is put together. For us, it also needs to leave room for the people and moments that make a wedding personal. In Provence, we approach that balance through carefully considered portraits and an attentive record of the day.
What does an editorial approach change?
A portrait may begin with a simple suggestion: where to stand, which way to turn towards the light, or how to move through a space. Once the frame is there, we look for a gesture, a connection or an expression that belongs to you.
The result is a conversation between composed images and spontaneous moments. Looking at a complete story helps you see whether that balance feels right for your wedding.
Three ways to read our photographs
Light and a quiet portrait at Château de Robernier
A window portrait brings the outline of the dress and the light into the same frame. In this photograph, the surroundings support the person rather than competing for attention. It is one moment within a wider story.

People within the architecture at Castel Bay
The staircase gives the photograph its structure; the couple gives it its meaning. This is the kind of relationship between a place and its people that interests us. A venue can remain recognisable without taking over every image.
The people gathered around you
Family and group photographs also belong in an editorial story. We think about their place in the sequence alongside portraits, details and the reception. Your gallery should bring you back to the people who were there, as well as to the atmosphere.
How to prepare portraits without filling your day with them
- Share your programme: include where you will get ready, the ceremony, the reception and any travel between them.
- Choose the people who matter: a short list helps prepare the group photographs.
- Allow a few portrait moments: we can discuss them around the light, the available spaces and the time you want with guests.
- Tell us how you feel in front of a camera: the level of guidance should work for you.
Planning a Provence wedding from abroad
You can start by sending us the venue you are considering, your date or possible dates, and the events you want covered. If your programme is still taking shape, that is enough to begin a useful conversation.
For a celebration spread over several places or days, distinguish the wedding day from a welcome dinner or farewell gathering. It helps define the time, travel and coverage in your proposal.
Photography, film or both
We are Florian and Jonathan Carmona. Florian has worked in photography for 18 years and Jonathan in film for 15 years. We both work in both disciplines. Your proposal sets out the coverage and deliverables for your plans.
