Behind the lens

Hey there,
I'm Ludgero. Portuguese-born, Australian-raised, now living in the south of France among the vineyards with my wife, our seven-year-old, and Marcel our French Bulldog.

I've shot weddings all over France - from centuries-old châteaux, to sun-drenched vineyards, to private homes where grandmother's recipe is still on the kitchen table, to glamping fields where fairy lights do the heavy lifting. Every single setting different. Every single couple unforgettable. Château or glamping, vineyard or back garden - I show up the same way every time. All in, and honestly still pinching myself that this is my life.

I don't do uncomfortable shots, I don't do awkward - never! For the candid moments, I disappear into your day. For your portraits, I step in. A gentle nudge here, a direction there. Bringing out something that feels natural because that's how it should be. Great light, considered composition, lots of laughs, nothing that'll make you cringe thirty years from now. You come back to images that put you right back there (and cry all over again).

Before your wedding, I do my homework. A site visit if I can make it happen, or a deep dive online, conversations with your venue, studying the light and the layout. Whatever it takes to walk in on the day already knowing the place.
