Cristina and Valentin’s Emotional Church Wedding in Cagnes-sur-Mer

There’s something timeless about a church wedding — the quiet anticipation, the rich symbolism, the way love and faith intertwine so naturally. Cristina and Valentin chose to celebrate their marriage in the charming coastal town of Cagnes-sur-Mer, a place they once called home before their next European adventure.

Exactly one year after their engagement, they gathered with friends and family from all over the world for an emotional and joy-filled celebration in the South of France.

As a wedding photographer based on the French Riviera, I always feel incredibly honored to document weddings where love takes center stage. Cristina and Valentin’s day was filled with sunshine, laughter, and meaningful moments, and it reminded me why I do what I do.

Black and White Bride and Groom

A Romantic Ceremony in the Heart of the Riviera

The ceremony took place in a small, intimate Catholic church in Cagnes-sur-Mer, surrounded by warm Mediterranean light and heartfelt music. Watching the couple exchange vows in such a sacred space, with their loved ones close, was deeply moving.

Cristina looked radiant in her elegant gown, and Valentin’s reaction as she walked down the aisle was unforgettable. After the ceremony, we stepped outside to a joyful flurry of hugs, tears, and a few happy dances — the kind of energy that makes a wedding truly unforgettable.

Natural, Timeless Wedding Photography in the South of France

For their couple portraits, we stayed close to the church and let the day unfold naturally. Cristina and Valentin’s connection was so effortless — the way they held hands, the way they looked at each other — and I wanted the photos to reflect that tenderness and intimacy.

My approach is always about capturing real emotions and organic moments, without forced poses or distractions. The result? A wedding gallery that feels just like them.
