Wedding Photographer Hauts-de-France: Services & Tips for Unforgettable Memories





F.A.Q.: Your Questions About Wedding Photography in Hauts-de-France
1. How far in advance should we book a photographer?
It is recommended to book your photographer as soon as you have set the date and venue for your wedding. Typically, this can range from 6 months to 1 year in advance. Popular dates fill up quickly, so it’s best to plan ahead to avoid disappointment.
2. How many photos will we receive?
It depends on the duration of the service, but for a full day, you can expect between 600 and 900 edited photos. My goal is to provide you with a comprehensive report, with varied and high-quality images.
3. Do you offer photo albums or prints?
Absolutely! In addition to digital files, I offer custom photo albums and high-quality prints to enhance your memories. Nothing beats a beautiful album you can flip through with your loved ones.
4. What if the weather is bad?
Don’t worry! Rain or an overcast sky can bring a unique atmosphere to your photos. I always plan for backup solutions: sheltered locations, accessories like elegant umbrellas, and a touch of creativity to make each shot exceptional.
5. Do you travel across the Hauts-de-France region?
Of course! Whether you’re planning your wedding in Lille, Amiens, Arras, or a charming little village, I’m happy to travel. Travel fees may apply depending on the distance, but this will always be clarified during our first conversation.
6. Can we do an engagement session before the wedding?
Yes, and I highly recommend it! An engagement session is a great opportunity to get familiar with the camera, create pre-wedding memories, and strengthen our connection before the big day.
7. How long after the wedding will we receive our photos?
On average, you will receive your final photos between 2 and 4 weeks after the wedding. This allows me to carefully retouch each image for optimal results.
8. How does payment work?
A deposit is required at the time of booking to secure the date. The balance can be paid before or after the wedding, depending on our agreement. I also offer payment flexibility if needed.
9. What if we don’t like being photographed?
No worries, many couples tell me this at first! I focus on capturing the spontaneity and emotion of your wedding in the report. Poses or staged shots are welcome for certain couple or family photos. But you might not feel comfortable in front of the camera! That’s why I always start with spontaneous, natural couple shots. Of course, I’ll help if you’re feeling unsure… (haha) but you’ll soon get the hang of posing! My role is to make you feel at ease and capture spontaneous, natural moments. I promise, you’ll quickly forget about the camera.
11. What if something happens to you?
I take every precaution to transfer the contract to a colleague from my network who will be able to satisfy your needs.
10. What does your basic package include?
My basic package includes:
- A meeting or call to discuss your expectations.
- My presence on the big day to capture key moments.
- Retouching of all delivered photos.
- An online private gallery to share your memories with your loved ones.
Additional options such as an engagement session or a photo album can be added.
11. Do you work with a drone for all weddings?
Yes, depending on the weather and local permissions, I offer aerial shots to enhance your memories.
12. Do you work outside of the Hauts-de-France region?
Yes, I am available for weddings across France and even internationally!
13. Why Choose a Professional Photographer for Your Wedding?
You might be thinking: “Uncle Gérard has a great camera, why not let him handle it?” 🤔 Well, here’s why:
- Uncle Gérard will be too busy at the buffet.
- He lacks the experience to capture those fleeting moments that only trained eyes can spot.
- On the other hand, I’m a pro! I know how to handle the capricious light of Hauts-de-France (yes, even with the rain) and your expectations to deliver photos worthy of a fairy tale.
14. Why Choose Creative Poses for Your Wedding?
Your wedding day deserves photos that tell your story, your love, and your personality. Far from traditional clichés, these creative couple photo ideas bring freshness and originality to your memories. Whether you’re a nature-loving, bold, or romantic couple, these creative wedding poses are here to capture the essence of this unique moment.
As an expert photographer in the Hauts-de-France, I will guide you in creating authentic and inspiring photos that will make your wedding an unforgettable moment. More than just a report, each photo will be a work of art that reflects your connection, dreams, and love.
