REAL WEDDINGS

Build an Authentic Destination Wedding Portfolio

If you’re a wedding photographer looking for that elusive first destination wedding in your portfolio, you’re in the right place!

Shoot alongside us at a real wedding in France, Italy, Switzerland or elsewhere in the world without the pressure of having to deliver. No being stuck with groom prep, or standing at the back of the ceremony for a second angle. Document a real destination wedding in a way that is true to your own style, with help and advice on hand throughout the event.

Most of our destination weddings are multi-day events, with either a pool party or post-wedding shoot at a second (and equally spectacular) location.

Be the First to Know

Places are strictly limited to just two photographers per event.  This means tickets sell out fast, especially at the most popular venues in France & Italy.  Enter your email below to be notified when more places become available.

Join in with the Party.

 

If you’re travelling all the way to France or Italy to get married, you’re not going to be turning off the music at 11pm! It’s not unusual to still be partying in the early hours.

Many of our bookings are multi-day events, often with a pool party on day two.

Remember to pack your swimsuit, and a waterproof camera cover!

HOW DO WE COMPARE

Styled shoots, workshops, or real weddings?

If you’ve been thinking about adding a destination wedding to your portfolio for some time, you’ve no doubt come across various destination styled shoots & workshops.

We’re all for these! However having spoken to several photographers who have attended, they do have their limitations.

Immaculately posed portraits and lavishly decorated tables are of course on the menu, but where were all the people? Staging an Aperol-fuelled dancefloor is quite a challenge with no guests.

We believe shooting a real wedding from start to finish, with all the polished and posed moments, along with the messy ones too, will always win.

You also won’t be sharing images of the same couple, in the same venue, with 20 other photographers!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use images I take on my social media & website?

Of course! The whole purpose of the destination wedding mentorship is to build an authentic portfolio of images from real destination weddings.  The only thing we ask is that you wait until the couple receive their full gallery from us before posting.

Are couples made aware that I'll be there on the day?

Yes!  We always make couples aware that up to two additional photographers may be present on their wedding day.

Will I have to do second shooter duties? Carry your bag? Or get boring shots from the back?

Absolutely not! There will of course be sensitive or quiet moments where it’s necessary to give the couple space, particularly during the ceremony, but generally, you can shoot the wedding however you wish.

What's the accommodation like?

It varies between different venues.  We usually stay as close as possible to the venue, typically in a large privately rented home (AirBnb etc.) or a good hotel if nothing suitable is available nearby.  We’ll share details of accommodation with you several months before the day.

Can I bring my partner or friend along with me?

Of course.  You’re welcome to bring a travel companion, and people often combine a destination wedding with a longer trip.  Please be aware that although they can join you at the accommodation, they will not be able to attend the wedding.

Can you give advice on travelling with camera equipment etc?

Yep.  We’ll chat about all the logistical aspects of the trip in our pre-wedding call.  But we’re always available via email or WhatApp if you have questions.
