An LGBTQ+ Couple Photoshoot in Bordeaux

Portrait & Family

Today I would like to share a same-sex couple photoshoot in Bordeaux: the session of a truly endearing lesbian couple, which I had the honour of photographing. I will also tell you about my Fine Art wedding photography for lesbian and gay couples.

Charlotte and Émilie’s Photoshoot at the Parc Bordelais

When the warm spring days returned, Charlotte and Émilie got in touch with me for a couple photoshoot. The occasion was their PACS, the French civil partnership, and they wanted beautiful images to mark this lovely civil union.

We took the photos at the Parc Bordelais, on a particularly sunny day.

Both rather shy by nature, Charlotte and Émilie let themselves be guided in a gentle, caring atmosphere. They made the most of a moment that became, for them, a true pause to reflect on their love and their new union.

Fits of laughter, tenderness and kisses set the rhythm of this beautiful moment.

The day after the shoot, I invited Charlotte and Émilie to discover their images. It was a deeply emotional moment that I will never forget.

A Professional Photographer for Lesbian and Gay Couples in Bordeaux

Whether it is a lesbian couple photoshoot or a gay couple photoshoot in Bordeaux, I am a photographer and an artist, and my sensitivity is not limited by anyone’s gender. The emotions a couple shares, whether gay, lesbian or straight, are ultimately the same.

In their photos, Charlotte and Émilie convey soft, gentle emotions. You can feel them just by looking at their eyes or their gestures. There is a modesty and a respect for each other’s bodies that comes through in the pictures. So much tenderness flows from their gestures; it is as soft as silk.

As a photographer of emotions and a Fine Art specialist, I took real pleasure in capturing all of these delicate gestures.

An LGBTQ+ friendly Fine Art wedding photographer

Same-sex marriage has been legal in France since 2013, with the "mariage pour tous" law, and it has become much more widespread since.

Many lesbian and gay couples no longer hesitate to show their love openly and to make their relationship official in front of their family and friends.

In June 2019, I photographed Pierre and David’s gay wedding in Bordeaux. They asked me to cover all of their wedding photography: their civil ceremony, couple portraits in Bordeaux, and the following day their humanist ceremony and reception at Villa La Tosca on Arcachon Bay.

If you are a same-sex couple planning your wedding, I bring the same intensity, the same joy and the same passion to your wedding photos, whether you are gay, lesbian or straight. Feel free to contact me for a post-wedding session, an engagement session, a couple photoshoot in Bordeaux, or for your wedding photos in the Gironde, in south-west France and anywhere in France.
