What is the First Look?

First look. Photo de la marié qui se cache le visage avec ses mains.

Once upon a time, the heart of a wedding. A world where every emotion finds its echo. Where every sensation counts. Where every heartbeat is heard. In this scenario of emotions, one moment stands out: the“First Look“. That second when everything changes. The gazes mingling, the world fading away. It is a silence full of love.

As wedding photographers, we are initiated into this unique moment. Our role is to immortalise this delicate moment. We guide couples to that first embrace. We capture the raw beauty and intimacy of the moment. Through our lenses, every photo becomes a story. A story of love and devotion. We, the wedding photographers, are the guardians of these moments. Moments that will live on forever.

The intimate encounter: The "First Look

Imagine… your wedding dress dancing in the wind, your perfectly tailored suit reflecting the glow of the sun. You’re in an idyllic setting, where every detail seems to have been painted with care. Theanticipation is palpable. You can almost feel the heartbeat of your future husband/wife, even if he/she is still out of sight.

Then comes the moment you’ve all been waiting for: the ‘First Look’. A sacred moment when the wedding world crystallises in a single glance. The veil is lifted, the patent leather shoes sparkle and two souls finally recognise each other. Emotions run high, joy, excitement, relief. It’s all there, in that look, in that first embrace.

As wedding photographers, our mission is paramount. We freeze in time those raw emotions, those fleeting moments. Every smile, every tear of love, every heartbeat becomes an indelible memory.

Pure emotion

The “First Look” is a ballet ofemotions. A moment when words fade away, replaced by intense glances. These embraces, these moments, speak ofauthenticity. They capture a deep connection away from the hustle and bustle.

As your photographer, I am your discreet witness. I capture every smile, every tear of emotion. I capture that magic for you. You’ll be able to relive it, photo after photo.

A photographic journey

Dans ce voyage enchanteur, les photographes naviguent avec passion. Ils cherchent l’essence d’une relation, l’amour authentique, la joie partagée. Chaque cliché n’est pas qu’une image. C’est un trésor. Ces captures dégagent spontanéité et naturel, immortalisant des moments éphémères d’amour pur.

Le “First Look” se distingue. Plus qu’une séance photo, c’est un préambule intime. Un moment où chaque émotion, chaque palpitation est notée avec soin. Pour les mariés, c’est précieux. Un havre avant la tempête festive. Une chance de savourer, en sachant chaque instant précieux préservé pour les années à venir.
