Paris · Destination · Two Mediums
One team, one timeline. Your wedding photographed the way I photograph every wedding, and filmed alongside by a cinematographer I chose rather than one who happened to be free.

A Film by Justin V
Most couples book a photographer and a videographer separately, then hope the two get along. Usually they do. Sometimes they spend the day negotiating the same three metres of floor while you wait.
I have shot enough weddings alongside a film crew I met that morning to know the difference. When the two teams have never spoken, the day gets divided. Someone always loses, and it is rarely the crew.
So I stopped leaving it to chance. On two and three day celebrations I bring a cinematographer I work with by choice. We walk the venue together before the day. We agree who leads which moment before anyone picks up a camera. You notice none of it, which is the point.
The photographs do not change. That part is mine, and it stays exactly what it has always been. What changes is that you also hear your vows again, in your own voices, ten years from now.
What Is Available
Two days, welcome dinner and wedding.
Three days, dinner, wedding, and day after.
Intimate celebrations and elopements remain photography only.
The Films
Justin and a second camera, across the celebration, briefed with the photographers.
One and a half to two and a half minutes, the weekend in its feeling, made to be shared.
Eight to twelve minutes, the day told whole: the vows and the speeches heard in your own voices.
Real film, shot on a Super 8 camera, developed and scanned: three minutes that look like a family archive.
A VHS camera for the evening, for the grain and the laughter, the part of the night nobody poses for.
Vertical, for Instagram, ready soon after the wedding.
Discreet microphones for the vows and speeches, a drone where the venue allows it.
Colour graded by hand, delivered in around twelve weeks on a private page.
On a Grand Duo, all of this. On a Signature Duo, two camera operators, the short film and the reel.
The Film Side
Justin is a director of photography whose work has been released in cinemas before it was ever shown at a wedding. He shoots quietly, never in the way, and edits like someone who has spent years in a colour suite. Which is why I asked him.
We walk the venue together before the day and agree who leads which moment before anyone picks up a camera. You sign two agreements, one with me and one with the film team, so each of us answers to you for our own work. One conversation, one timeline, one point of contact.
