For Adeline and Arnaud, the botanical garden holds tender memories of a happy life together as a couple. A photoshoot at the Jardin Botanique was therefore the obvious choice for these two lovebirds.

I was very happy to advise Adeline on the whole family’s outfits, and above all to see that she had followed my advice.

So we went for bright, plain, pastel shades, so that the focus would be only on the looks and the emotions.

Why choose an outdoor family photoshoot?

An outdoor family photoshoot is a unique opportunity to treat yourself to a gentle interlude with your partner and your children, away from your own four walls.

In a city like Bordeaux, an outdoor session is all the more magical, because it is such a beautiful city.

Many parks and gardens line both banks of the river, to the delight of everyone who lives in Bordeaux’s neighbourhoods.
