Dordogne Wedding Photographer
Elegant & timeless images
with a poetic touch
Bonjour, I’m Clémence!
Specializing in destination weddings in South West France, I capture your celebration with a modern and poetic eye.
Whether you are planning an intimate elopement near Sarlat or a grand celebration in a Dordogne château, my goal is to document the unique atmosphere of this region; the laughter, the tears, and that incomparable French country light.
Let’s talk about your wedding
Tell me more about your plans, your venues and your wedding date,
and I’ll be happy to come back to you within 24–48 hours with more information.
Beyond its elegant gardens, what I love most about shooting at Château la Durantie is the late afternoon light. The beautiful stoned facade catches the golden hour perfectly, creating a warm, cinematic glow for your couple portraits. It’s an ideal venue if you envision a dinner al fresco, as the lighting remains soft and flattering throughout the evening.
This venue offers an incredible variety of backdrops within a single location. I particularly enjoy using the contrast between the historic stone architecture of the two castles and the vast, open views of the Dordogne countryside. It allows us to create a diverse gallery, mixing intimate, structured shots with wide, breathing landscapes, without ever leaving the wedding party.
Perched on a cliff overlooking the Dordogne valley, this medieval fortress offers a spectacular, majestic setting. From a photography perspective, Rouffillac is full of contrasts: the interiors and suites are exquisite for getting-ready shots, while the intimate inner courtyard creates a cozy, secluded atmosphere for a candlelit dinner. I particularly love taking couples into the gardens at sunset; the classical statues and the panoramic views over the hills provide a timeless backdrop. If we are lucky, the mist rolling through the valley below adds a breathtaking, ethereal quality to your cinematic portraits.

Wedding at Château d’Essendieras
“From the first moment we laid eyes on Clemence’s stunning portfolio, we knew she was the perfect photographer to capture our special day. Her ability to transform ordinary moments into something truly magical through her photography is nothing short of extraordinary. The soft pastel hues she uses, combined with her meticulous attention to detail, created a visual narrative that we will cherish forever.
Clemence’s organisation and foresight leading up to our wedding were invaluable. Her keen eye for design and beauty ensured that every shot was not just a photograph, but a work of art. We are immensely grateful that she was there to document such an important day for us.
Beyond her remarkable talent, it is Clemence’s kindness that truly touched our hearts. Her patience and genuine interest in getting to know us made the entire experience feel personal and special.”

Wedding at Château de Thauvenay
“Clemence was absolutely amazing! I would recommend her to anyone. She took time to understand what we wanted and executed it beautifully.
She is kind, gracious and very passionate about her work. Not to mention that the photos turned out perfect. We are very appreciative of her capturing such a special day so wonderfully.”
Olivia & Joe
Wedding at Château de la Borderie
“Wow, what can I say about Clémence’s talent? My husband and I recently had the wedding of our dreams in France, where we were so luckily accompanied by Clémence, who captured our day perfectly. From the moment we met, she made everyone feel comfortable with her warm and welcoming smile, and calm approach.
We put all of our trust into Clémence and it certainly paid off because our photos (which we received after only 2 weeks!) helped us relive our perfect day from start to finish. The photos were well organised, from the ‘getting ready’ process, to the ceremony and party. The files were easily accessible which made it straightforward for us to send to our guests, whom were all in tears again!
We can only recommend everyone to use Clémence for their big day, you won’t regret it!”
