Sylvain Bouzat
Wedding Reportages | Photographer of Marriage - Lyon, France & Beyond
Passionate Photographer's Humanistic Approach Perfect for Weddings
I started shooting weddings in 2010, it was the beginning of my new documentary vision and wedding reportage. It was for me a revelation! Indeed, we can shoot weddings and document what's really happening during the whole day from the preparation to the dance floor. I love traveling and discovering different places. I shoot all around the world for my personal work with a medium format film camera (Bhutan, Oman, Nepal, Guatemala, Morocco, Myanmar, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia, India, Indonesia, and many other countries in Europe). Creating, discovering and meeting new people is very important to me. My approach is humanistic and passionate, that's why wedding documentary makes sense for me.
