A Couple Photoshoot at La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez, Bordeaux
As a professional photographer in Bordeaux, let me share the story of Vlad and Léna and their couple photoshoot at La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez, in Bordeaux.
Renowned as a great French luxury house, La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez hosts large-scale events such as weddings. It was in this noble setting that Vlad gave his sweetheart a couple photoshoot for her birthday.
La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez, Bordeaux
La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez is a real source of pride here in Bordeaux. In the heart of the city stands a house widely recognised for its expertise in wine and its French elegance.
Bernard Magrez is a great name here in Gironde, known for his great vineyards and his Grand Cru Classé wines. He is an institution for the people of Bordeaux and for connoisseurs of Bordeaux wines.
La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez is a five-star hotel and a two-Michelin-star restaurant, run by chef Pierre Gagnaire.
An outdoor couple photoshoot
At the time of this session, more than ever, an outdoor couple photoshoot was strongly recommended, as the risk of passing on the virus between people remained.
The great advantage of living in the South-West is that our region is full of places, each as beautiful as the next.
A couple photoshoot at a great French house like Bernard Magrez’s was still possible: with the couple and the photographer, that makes just three people.
Places in the heart of nature elsewhere in Gironde, in the Landes or in the Basque Country are also very popular for couple photos. The light there is in harmony with the surroundings.
A couple photoshoot idea for a birthday
The little story behind this session: it was Vlad, who comes from Moscow in Russia, who had the wonderful idea of giving Léna, his future wife, a photoshoot for her birthday. Vlad had contacted me a few months before the date of the shoot to organise this romantic surprise.
The surprise worked perfectly. Léna had the joy of discovering La Grande Maison de Bernard Magrez, a magical and refined place.
Professional Photographer in Central Bordeaux
As a professional wedding photographer in Bordeaux, I am lucky enough to live in the city centre. This makes it easier to organise couple photoshoots at the iconic places of Bordeaux, and in its luxury establishments too.
As a Fine Art wedding photographer, I have the chance to take my wedding photos, whether couple portraits or full wedding stories, at the most renowned addresses in Bordeaux and Gironde.
Château Pape Clément in Pessac, also owned by Bernard Magrez, long welcomed couples and their families for their wedding receptions. It was the dream setting chosen by Caroline and Giovanni for their wedding: you can read the story of their wedding at Château Pape Clément and discover this exceptional place at the same time.
