Your experience
This isn’t just about posing—it’s about feeling.
Photography isn’t just about capturing events — it’s about preserving the atmosphere, the emotions, and all those fleeting, genuine moments that will bring you right back to how you felt on your wedding day. I’m here to be more than just a photographer; I’m here to be a calming presence, a visual storyteller, and someone who intuitively understands how to guide and support you throughout your celebration.
Most couples I work with are looking for a balance : images that feel both effortlessly elegant and deeply personal. I create this through a mix of intentional direction and honest observation — allowing space for raw moments while still crafting refined, editorial frames. It’s about giving you the freedom to be fully present, knowing your memories are in good hands.
If you're someone who books a hotel based on its aesthetic, chooses a restaurant for its atmosphere as much as its menu, or falls in love with a place because of how it makes you feel — then we already speak the same visual language. I’m drawn to aesthetic in all its forms, and I bring that same sensitivity into every frame I compose.
Calm in the chaos, clarity in the moment.
Presence & Process
From the very beginning, I’m by your side. Whether we're meeting on video call months in advance or exchanging voice notes via WhatsApp days before the celebration, I stay closely connected with my couples—especially because most of them live abroad.
I always arrive at least one day before the wedding begins. I use that time to explore the venue, refine my moodboard, and soak in the atmosphere. I want to understand the light, the landscape, and the energy so that on your day, everything flows. You'll never find me rushing or guessing. I’m calm, grounded, and observant—what many have described as "a lighthouse in the storm."
Cleya was amazing and put us at ease from the very get-go, spending time with us virtually to understand who we are, our love story and what we were looking for.
On the day, she was the most incredible presence. Discreet, calm and supportive. She has an indescribable skill to capture special moments that are natural, unposed, and would otherwise go unseen – which is exactly what we were after. Her energy, positivity and genuine care for us and our wedding were unmatched.

Artistry With Purpose
Stunning photos, both artistic and deeply emotional, at the crossroads of Hollywood glamour and fashion photography. You have a true eye for detail, which is a rare gift among photographers. You are incredibly gentle, discreet, and wildly creative.
-Helen, 2024 bride
My photography has been described as refined, emotive, and timeless — living somewhere between the world of fashion and the intimacy of real life. It’s a gentle balance between documentary storytelling and editorial elegance — honest, yet elevated. Many of my couples are drawn to that contrast : timeless, sophisticated imagery grounded in authentic emotion.
Fashion plays a central role in shaping the aesthetic direction of my work. I’m inspired by textures, color palettes, and the artistry of design — elements that influence how I frame each scene. I also love experimenting with different techniques, like flash, which I often use to sculpt light or add a touch of bold glamour once the sun sets.
There’s warmth in my images — a softness, a bit of grain, a curated rhythm that mirrors the emotional pacing of your day. I aim to create galleries that feel natural, yet intentional ; refined, yet full of life.
Where fashion meets feeling.
Whether it’s the glimmer of a glass in golden hour, the quiet poetry of a fleeting glance, or the personal objects that made the day yours, I notice and capture what others might overlook. I have a deep affection for detail — the way a perfume bottle catches the light, the curve of a handwritten note, the texture of a dress against skin. These elements are not background; they are part of the narrative. They hold meaning, style, and memory, and I treat them with just as much care as the grand moments. I believe beauty is everywhere — we just have to slow down enough to notice it.
I always begin the day by focusing on the atmosphere : the space, the textures, the light. That way, people gently acclimate to my presence before I step into the energy of the celebration. Later, when the time is right, I guide with confidence — especially for portraits — so you feel supported, comfortable, and radiant.
At the core of it all is a rhythm: the structure of essential moments, followed by the flow of creativity. I’m here to make sure every piece of your story is seen and remembered.
Destination Weddings, Reimagined
It's difficult when you hire a vendor for your most special day, and you've never met in person, you put so much trust into a person to help you remember your day forever. You could not have exceeded our expectations. We felt so comfortable, and felt you made our day special.
-Sam, 2024 bride
Being from the UK and having our wedding in France, we were a little anxious about finding and securing more local vendors. Cleya was amazing and put us at ease from the very get-go, spending time with us virtually to understand who we are, our love story and what we were looking for.
-Laura, 2024 bride
The place is part of the story —let’s make it unforgettable.
Having worked with couples from all over the world, I understand the trust it takes to hire a photographer abroad. That’s why I bring more than my camera. I bring reassurance, flexibility, and care.
I speak both French and English fluently, which helps bridge any gaps — between families, cultures, or logistics. I treat the destination as part of the story, and make sure your chosen place is fully celebrated in your gallery. Whether it’s the serene cliffs of Santorini or the golden warmth of a château in Provence, the setting becomes part of the narrative. You also have the option to enhance your coverage with drone shots, film photography, or behind-the-scenes video snippets—available when a second shooter is added to your photo team. These additions bring even more depth and dimension to the way your story is told.
Beyond the Gallery
Your story, beautifully archived.
After the wedding, you’ll receive your images in a curated online gallery —with an integrated print shop to make ordering easy. For couples looking for something extra special, I offer The Haven Archives — a bespoke, fine-art wedding album designed to last a lifetime.
What They Say
More than a photographer—an energy, a presence, a memory keeper.
