A Fine Art reportage in Château des Anglades
Château des Anglades is one of those estates where Provence meets the Mediterranean. Set in Hyères, at the heart of a vineyard in the Var, this wine estate combines endless rows of vines, a characterful residence and the maritime light of the French Riviera. A rare setting for destination weddings that seek elegance without ostentation.
I photograph regularly on the French Riviera and in the Var, and I know the particular quality of this region's maritime light, warmer and more golden than elsewhere in France. Château des Anglades brings together the ideal conditions for an exceptional Fine Art reportage: Provençal stone, rows of vines and the sea close by.
The setting at Château des Anglades
Château des Anglades is first and foremost a living wine estate. The vines frame the Provençal residence and draw natural perspectives, perfect for couple portraits. The avenues of century-old plane trees, the shaded courtyard and the reception spaces offer a diversity of photographic settings, from stone to greenery, from warm interiors to luminous outdoors.
The Côte d'Azur light here, as throughout the Riviera, is of rare quality: intense and direct by day, golden and rose-tinted at sunset. In Hyères, the proximity of the Mediterranean amplifies and reflects this light in an incomparable way, and the vines take on an amber hue at the end of the day.
My approach at Château des Anglades
My Fine Art approach on the French Riviera adapts to each venue. At Château des Anglades, I work with the maritime light, the rows of vines and the estate's architecture to create coherent, elegant images: golden hour portraits among the vines, spontaneous moments during the ceremony and dinner, a narrative faithful to the unique atmosphere of the Var coastline.
No stiff group shots, no artificial staging. Living moments, genuine glances, images that truly tell the story of your day and the place that hosted it.
The day, photographed
Preparations in the soft morning light. The ceremony among the vines or beneath the plane trees. The cocktail hour in the estate's courtyard, a glass of the château's rosé in hand. Dinner under the stars or in the reception rooms. And the couple portraits at sunset, when the light gilds the vines and the Mediterranean glows in the distance.
The seasons at Château des Anglades
The estate transforms throughout the year. In spring, the vines turn green again and the light is clear and fresh. In summer, the strong light is best worked at golden hour, when the heat eases and the vines shimmer. Autumn, the harvest season, offers amber light and warm tones on the vine leaves, ideal for portraits. Each season brings a different atmosphere, and Château des Anglades remains photogenic all year round.
