A Gentle Engagement Photoshoot on Lacanau Beach

Flavie and Guillaume’s Engagement Session, Softly Told

Quietly moved, but no less sincere for it, Flavie and Guillaume threw themselves into this gentle engagement session at Lacanau beach at the very start of summer 2018.

Sensitive, reserved and always kind, the two lovebirds chose a setting that mirrors their endless love for each other.

It was a real pleasure to share this first session with them, before photographing their beautiful wedding at Château Isabeau de Naujan three months later.

And to end on a high note, we came back to the very same spot for one last couple session after the wedding, this time in their wedding finery.

If you love these images, you will find more engagement stories in my wedding journal, and more sessions in my engagement portfolio.
