A luxury photo experience in Monaco, Eze, Nice and the Villa Ephrussi

But not as special as you are.

From the pastel facades of Nice to the perched elegance of Eze and the cinematic luxury of Monaco, the French Riviera offers more than just scenery — it sets the tone for a lifelong memory. As a photographer blending fashion editorial finesse with candid emotional storytelling, I don’t just take photos — I design experiences. Whether it’s a surprise proposal, a romantic getaway, or a pre-wedding session, you’ll walk away with images that feel like they belong in a magazine, yet are unmistakably, deeply you. Let’s turn this moment into something unforgettable — naturally, artfully, and always with purpose.

A Romantic Experience on the French Riviera

Where timeless elegance meets authentic emotion

You know this moment matters — but you also know it’s fleeting. Maybe you’re planning a surprise proposal and feeling overwhelmed by the logistics in a foreign country. Or perhaps you’ve dreamed of having timeless images of you and your partner in the South of France, but you worry about stiff poses, tourist-filled spots, or photographers who don’t really seeyou. You’re not looking for ordinary. You want to feel something when you look at your photos — intimacy, elegance, truth. I get that. That’s exactly why I do this the way I do.

There are places in the world where romance isn’t just a feeling — it’s embedded in the air, the light, the sea breeze. The French Riviera is one of those rare places. From the soft golden glow of the Mediterranean sun to the refined architecture and dreamy cliffside villages, everything here speaks the language of love.
As a luxury photographer specializing in engagements, couple sessions, surprise proposals and pre-wedding shoots, I offer more than a photoshoot — I offer an experience. My role is to capture your connection with elegance and truth, balancing editorial sophistication with spontaneous emotion. Whether you’re walking hand in hand through the cobbled streets of Eze, exchanging glances over a quiet moment in the gardens of the Villa Ephrussi, or laughing by the sea in Nice, your story deserves imagery that’s both meaningful and visually stunning.
What sets my work apart is a deep attention to detail and light, a strong sense of storytelling, and an ability to make each couple feel at ease. My style is cinematic yet intimate — refined yet full of life. I’ve worked with couples from around the world who have chosen the French Riviera as the stage for their most precious moments, and I tailor each session to reflect their personality, their energy, and the natural beauty of the location.
Whether you’re looking to celebrate your engagement with a romantic session, planning a stylish pre-wedding shoot, or dreaming of an unforgettable proposal, I’m here to guide you. Every session begins with understanding your vision, your style, and the type of mood you’d like to capture. From wardrobe suggestions to selecting the perfect time of day for the light, I help craft a visual experience that feels authentic, elegant, and effortlessly you.
The French Riviera offers a diversity of settings — from the luxurious calm of Monaco’s gardens and harbors, to the whimsical charm of Eze, the pastel colors of Nice, and the exquisite grandeur of the Villa Ephrussi de Rothschild. Some of these iconic venues may require advance booking and image rights (like Villa Ephrussi or the exotic gardens of Eze), but I handle all the planning with you to ensure a seamless, stress-free experience.
This is your story. Let’s make it timeless.

More than just your photographer — I’m your trusted guide and creative ally throughout this experience.

And then you’ll feel like this.

I know what it feels like to want everything to be perfect — to create something beautiful, meaningful, and effortless, while quietly holding the pressure of it all. Maybe you’re planning a surprise proposal from another country, trying to coordinate timing, light, and emotion without really knowing where to start. I’ve been in moments like this myself — unsure, hopeful, excited, and nervous all at once. That’s why I don’t just show up with a camera. I come with care, insight, and the calm presence of someone who’s walked this path before.

EZE VILLAGE

Whispers of love, above the sea

Eze is a breathtaking gem on the French Riviera, offering medieval charm and stunning Mediterranean views. Its winding streets and the serene Exotic Garden of Eze create the perfect setting for unforgettable couple sessions, surprise proposals, or pre-wedding shoots. The village’s atmosphere combines romance with elegance, ensuring your moments here are captured with both artistry and discretion. Whether you seek intimate portraits or grand landscapes, Eze will serve as the perfect backdrop for your love story.

Capturing Romance in the Heart of Eze

Eze is not just a village — it’s a vision suspended between sky and sea. Perched high above the French Riviera, its medieval charm, winding stone alleys, and panoramic views of the Mediterranean make it one of the most romantic locations in the South of France. For couples drawn to a setting that feels intimate, timeless, and cinematic, Eze offers a poetic escape — quiet, elegant, and full of old-world beauty.
At the top of the village lies the famed Exotic Garden of Eze, a botanical wonder that feels like a secret sanctuary in the sky. Cacti, succulents, and ancient statues are set against sweeping coastal vistas that stretch far beyond Monaco. The golden light here, especially during golden hour, wraps everything — and everyone — in warmth and serenity. It’s no wonder it’s become a favorite for pre-wedding sessions, couple portraits, and emotional surprise proposals.
Please note: the Jardin Exotique is a protected cultural site, and image rights may be required for private photoshoots. I can assist you in requesting permissions well in advance to ensure a smooth experience.
For surprise proposals, I often blend into the scenery, camera in hand, posing as a tourist. I remain invisible during the big moment, capturing every raw emotion as it unfolds — the nervous smiles, the tears, the joy. Then, when the timing feels right, I step forward and gently transition us into a romantic photo session around the village. We can even continue the session in nearby coastal spots to add variety to your gallery.
Every shoot in Eze is unique. Some couples want to wander quietly through the old stones and pause under ivy-covered arches. Others dream of dramatic shots on the terraces above the sea, or editorial-style portraits amidst the lush gardens. My role is to guide you, gently, so you feel completely present — while I take care of light, timing, and mood. The result? Elegant images that carry not just the beauty of the place, but the authenticity of your connection.
Whether you’re planning a proposal, celebrating your love, or simply wishing to remember a perfect afternoon in the French Riviera, Eze is a canvas that does justice to your story. And I will be there to honour it with care, artistry, and discretion.
