Cinematic, timeless wedding films
In Mayenne, in Brittany and across France.
One film, in full
Rather than a thirty-second trailer, here is a complete day. It is the best way to know whether my way of filming speaks to you.

Simon, behind the camera
I film weddings from Mayenne, in western France, and I work alone. There will be no crew around you, just someone who stays out of the way.
I do not ask couples to act scenes again. No walking out of the church twice, no looks to camera on request. What happens happens once, and that is exactly what makes an image true.
The rest is patience: being in the right place before the moment arrives, and letting the day unfold.

How it works
Four steps, from first contact to the finished film.
-
1
A call
Half an hour to talk about your day, your venue, and what you want from a film. No commitment.
-
2
The date is held
A contract and a deposit secure your date. I only take one wedding per weekend.
-
3
The day itself
I arrive early, look around, then make myself forgotten. You have nothing to organise for me.
-
4
Your film
A preview within the following week. The full film within 30 to 45 days, in 4K, on a private space.
Venues I have filmed
Every estate has its own light and acoustics. I have documented the ones where I spent a full day.
Your questions
What couples ask me most often before booking
What is the difference between the two packages?
+How long I stay. The Essential Package (€1,400) covers the ceremony, cocktail hour and grand entrance, for an 8 to 12 minute film. The Full Day Package (€1,750) starts with getting ready and ends with the first dance, for a 12 to 15 minute film. Everything else is identical: the same care on the day, the same editing work, the same deliverables.
Is drone footage included?
+Yes, in both packages, at no extra cost. The drone flies when the venue and the weather allow. Some estates sit in restricted airspace, near an airfield or a listed site, where flying is not permitted. In that case I tell you before the wedding rather than on the day.
When do we receive the film?
+A preview reaches you within the week following the wedding. The full film is delivered within 30 to 45 days, a little longer in peak season between June and September. I would rather give a range I can keep: one day of filming means three to five days of editing, sound mixing and colour grading.
How do we book the date?
+After our call, I send you a contract. The date is held once it is signed, together with a deposit. Until both are in place, the date stays open to other couples. I film only one wedding per weekend.
How is the balance paid?
+The deposit holds the date. The balance is settled before the film is delivered. Nothing appears along the way: travel terms are written into the contract from the start.
Do you travel far?
+I mainly film in Mayenne, Brittany and the Pays de la Loire: Rennes, Laval, Angers and Nantes are all less than two hours away. Further afield, in France or abroad, is possible. The first 50 km are included, then €0.40/km. Beyond 150 km, an overnight stay is required.
Do we need to provide a meal?
+Yes, an evening meal is to be provided with both packages. A seat at the suppliers' table is plenty. It is also the only moment of the day when I put the camera down, while you are at the table.
Do we choose the music?
+You can tell me what you love, and if one track matters to you, say so early. The final choice stays mine, because music carries the rhythm of the edit. Every track used is professionally licensed: your film will not be blocked on social media.
Am I free on your date?
Enter your wedding date and I will tell you straight away whether I am available.
