Hello

My Fiance and I are getting married Saturday 4th July 2020 in Brittany France.
My parents own a beautiful house there which we have grown up visiting for many years, the local area is stunning and what real rural France looks like. I sometimes describe it as French Cornwall with better food and wine! My parents house has around a couple of acres of garden which is where we are planning to hold the main festivities alongside the local church for our ceremony and lunch in the oldest restaurant in Brittany.

We would much rather have a UK photographer with us to capture our day/weekend and it could be a wonderful opportunity for you to visit and work in a new part of the world for free. But wedding photography is inherently an expensive part of any wedding and we cannot justify paying for a wedding package and the travel and accommodation of the photographer, so we are offering to pay for your weekend with us in fabulous food and wonderful wine, a comfortable bed and your means of getting here.

The wedding will be held over the whole weekend starting Friday with dinner and finishing Sunday with a BBQ and lots of wonderful things in between. I know that this is a somewhat unconventional wedding and offer but if you fancy doing something a little different that won't cost you anything please let me know as we would love to welcome you into our celebrations.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Briony and Alex

Hi Briony and Alex,

This sounds so exciting! I love it. My husband is French, so I totally understand the reason for doing a destination wedding there! I lived in Paris/Toulouse for a couple of years, and I miss the tasty wine & food.

I am not a wedding photographer just yet, so I wouldn't offer my services to you. However, I am currently training to be one. We got married last year, and I enjoyed the wedding process so much that I have taken photography as a hobby - I'm actually a PhD student in Oxford. I'm currently offering free engagement photo shoots in London (or Oxford) in case that you live in this area. They include a session for 1h, a style guide that would give all the information to help to prepare for the session, and 20+ edited photos. All that I would ask in return is to use the photos on my portfolio.

I send you below a few photos that I just took on a maternity photo shoot last week in Switzerland. My style is light & airy.

Best wishes,

Mariana

Hi there Briony and Alex,

Firstly, congratulations! Your wedding sounds like it's going to be AMAZING, what a wonderful location for it!

Secondly, This sounds like an amazing opportunity! I'd love to be considered, but would like to be open and upfront about the fact that I'm still quite new to the Wedding Photography scene, though I've been doing other photography work for just under two years.

If you're still looking for someone to Photograph your wedding, please take a look at my profile and feel free to contact me if you'd like to discuss further.

Regardless of how you proceed, I wish you both the greatest of success and hope you have a wonderful day!

Regards,

Tim Bullock
