Damien, English-speaking wedding photographer in Normandy<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Based in Caen, I\u2019ve been photographing weddings since 2008: in Normandy, in Paris and pretty much everywhere else.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/header>\n\t\t

Damien,

The darkroom came first<\/h3>

I started photography on film, in a darkroom. It left me with a taste for grain, for light you wait for, and for the frame you don\u2019t waste. Today I work digitally, and I offer film portraits as an option, on medium format or with a large-format camera.<\/p>

A wedding, told as a documentary<\/h3>

A wedding lets me share intense emotions with you, as a privileged witness. I blend into the day, I never ask for anything twice, I laugh with your guests when the moment calls for it, and I tell the story of what really happened. My philosophy fits in one sentence: between modernity and tradition, let\u2019s choose the spontaneity of the moment.<\/p>

Five weddings a year<\/h3>

I photograph only five weddings a year. That\u2019s what lets me arrive early, know your venue before you do, retouch every image one by one and deliver quickly. It\u2019s also why we meet beforehand: you choose me, and I choose you too. No casting: a coffee, thirty minutes, and we know straight away whether we click. My prices are higher than average for that reason, and I\u2019d rather tell you here than on the phone.<\/p>

A graphic designer, too<\/h3>

I\u2019m also a graphic designer. I lay out the albums I deliver myself, bound like real books.<\/p>

Where I work<\/h3>

Based in Caen, I travel throughout Normandy, to Paris, elsewhere in France and abroad. I speak English fluently, so couples coming from the UK, the US or anywhere else can plan everything with me in English, and their guests can talk to me on the day without a second thought.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
