Cannelle and Kevin - Chateau De Tredion Wedding

Chateau De Tredion Wedding - Cannelle and Kevin

A silly early start after 2 hours of sleep. That’s how the trip started. Yes, I still get so excited before weddings that I can barely sleep the night before.

The drive to the airport was longer than the flight. Gatwick to Nantes only took an hour or so. At the airport, we were greeted by the most lovely people - Jean-Pierre and Emelyne, dad and sister of the groom. They were the nicest hosts we could’ve ever asked for. We stayed at their house the night before the wedding and the night after the wedding and we watched the Euros 2024 final with them. It was so nice of Jean-Pierre, Emelyne and Katy not to cheer for Spain during the heart-breaking match.

Photographing the Wedding

We got to the venue at 10, 4 hours before the ceremony so we could photograph plenty of the bridal and groom prep and take some images of the venue. I fell in love with the Chateau from the moment I saw it. Such a magnificent venue.

Canelle and Kevin’s wedding was really nice to photograph. There were countless moments of connection, big hugs and lots of kisses.

In terms of timing, it was definitely the longest wedding I’ve photographed so far. We started photographing at 10:30 and finished at 02:30 am.

Such a pleasure to photograph this wedding alongside Olly Knight - my mentor and friend.

After the Wedding

The day after the wedding all guests returned to the Chateau for a traditional French lunch - galettes and cider.
