Lara & Kjell


Destination Wedding Photography in France


I'm not sure where to begin with this incredible three-day destination wedding at the stunning Chateau de Robernier in Provence. As a destination wedding photographer, I am always thrilled to be part of such vibrant celebrations, and this one was truly exceptional. The energy, the atmosphere, the laughter, the happiness; it was all in abundance and resulted in a truly wonderful weekend wedding for Lara & Kjell. 


Chateau de Robernier is truly a fairytale castle wedding venue surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. It exudes classic French charm with the flexibility to customise your wedding weekend, which makes each moment feel unique and personal. For Lara & Kjell, that was exactly the case from the circus-themed rehearsal dinner to the joyous pool party the next day.


"I have absolutely no words for how perfect they are. I literally don't know how to describe this feeling right now..we are beyond happy. My face hurts from smiling from ear to ear. There were some tears too, but mostly just plain happiness. Everybody looks so happy in the photos, our guests gave us the perfect weekend, and you managed to make the feeling last a lifetime. Thank you!" —L&K

The level of thought Lara & Kjell put into their guests' experience was just amazing. I can only imagine that their guests had the time of their lives. Everywhere I looked guests were truly in the moment; laughing, hugging, kissing, dancing, eating, drinking, beaming. It was spectacular. Lara & Kjell chose to have an unplugged wedding (no phones, photos etc), and it made an enormous difference. Everyone was present, focused on the wonderful events around them, no distractions, just utter happiness and enjoyment. A perfect decision in my opinion!

Lara & Kjell value and appreciate photography, and their wedding photos was incredibly important to them. As a result, I felt hugely privileged to have been chosen to document their wedding, after what, Lara described to be an extensive search for her perfect photographer! Upon receiving their images, Lara sent me a wonderful message... "I have absolutely no words for how perfect they are. I literally don't know how to describe this feeling right now..we are beyond happy. My face hurts from smiling from ear to ear. There were some tears too, but mostly just plain happiness. Everybody looks so happy in the photos, our guests gave us the perfect weekend, and you managed to make the feeling last a lifetime. Thank you" This is all I can hope for, and means the world to me. I am truly grateful for the couples who trust me to document their day.

A special shoutout to the amazing florist Laetitia C, with whom I’ve had the pleasure of working before, and to Nicki Drab, my invaluable second shooter, who always brings so much to the day.

As a destination wedding photographer, I am blessed with the opportunity to capture love stories in some of the most beautiful locations in the world. Chateau de Robernier weddings are always magical, and this was no exception. If you're planning a wedding at this stunning venue, or any other destination, I would be delighted to be your photographer.
