Candid & Natural Wedding Photography: Capturing Genuine Moments
I discovered the art of wedding photo-reportage more than ten years ago in Paris, France. Since 2005 I have been based in Sydney, Australia with studios in Randwick and Port Stephens/Hunter Valley. I travel all around Australia, the Pacific islands, Asia and Europe to shoot weddings. I offer couples a photo-reportage of their wedding day in a natural and unobtrusive way. My aim is to create images that mean something; images that carry feelings and emotions. I see my photography as elegant and timeless. Please visit my website and drop me an email to chat about your wedding.

Dear Florent, Thank you for being a part of our journey and our special day. It was wonderful to have you there. We had so much fun sharing so many laughs with you and being able to relax and enjoy the day. We had so many compliments about your work, not surprisingly as we think you are great at what you do. Hope you like the postcard. Not a bad photographer! Love

Hi Florent, The images look fantastic! It's bringing back the memories again! Thanks so very much for your great work and also for your support on the actual day itself! You kind of became the adhoc time-keeper and a calming presence as you were so organised (more so than any of us) and also joked around with us so that made the day less stressful and a whole lot more fun. As for Thailand, we had a blast! If you ever are in Phuket, you HAVE to go the The Shore at Katathani... amazing. Look forward to catching up with you.

Your works have received rave comments from our families and friends! Apart from me being the most relaxed bride you have ever seen (hehe), your magic certainly helped to make it looks even more perfect! You might be a man of few words on the day but they are definitely the right ones to provide guidance and at the same time, soothing the nerves of us while capturing the natural and beautiful moments we might not be aware of! Thank you!!!!,

Ceri & Paul
Just a quick note to say that Paul and I are so glad we chose you as our wedding photographer. You captured the atmosphere perfectly, which means that every time we look at the pictures (which is around twice daily at the moment!), we feel just as happy as we did on the day. We love, love, love them, and so does everyone else we've shown them to. Thank you for everything.

Jasmine & Charles
My package has arrived safe and sound. Thank you so very much for all your hard work. We love love love the photos! We really appreciate all the hard work that you put into capturing our wedding. It truly is a lovely memory and I honestly feel like you captured really lovely moments on our day. We know that our day was a little unconventional, children were running around and things were a little chaotic, but thats life at times and you worked really hard to capture all of that too. The photos of the kids look great! There are many moments of happiness and laughter in your pictures, Charlie and I can remember exactly why were were laughing and what was going on. That truly is a special gift. Thank you! I will happily recommend you to anyone I know seeking professional services in photography.

Hope you are well! We just received the Photos - Thank you sooooooo- much they are fantastic! It has been like re-living the wedding just going through them on the prints. You capture the moment so perfectly. I definitly need to learn not to make so many faces hahahah but i guess that is just me, i am so happy with the photos, you are fantastic. thank you sosososo much. Working with you is such a pleasure, you make everything so easy. We really cannot thank you enough for the time and effort you put into our wedding and for the fantastic result. I cant imagine how people feel if they dont receive their wedding photos or if they are crap. Ours/yours are exactly as we wanted, i feel like i just re-lived the whole thing and that is priceless. For all the rubbish that we went through on some things with the wedding, we have equally met some fantastic people and you are one of them. Your photographs are outstanding and the way you were so patient and helpful on the day, well, we are indebted to you. This was sooo important to me and you have exceeded my expectations. THank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank-you so much for our beautiful wedding photos! They are more amazing than we could ever have imagined. You captured all the wonderful moments of the day so well. We really love the one with the 3 scuba gear guys - it made us laugh so hard. Everyone absolutely loves the photos and we are so happy you were there to help document our special day. You made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We could not be happier! Thank-you again.
