A Fine Art reportage in Clos du Tuilier
Clos du Tuilier is a stone hamlet set among fields and vines in Oppedette, Haute-Provence. It takes its name from an old tile workshop, and that craft history shows everywhere: dry-stone walls, old roof tiles, terracotta floors in the bedrooms. Mathieu Pasques visited it in October 2026 for his Wedding Venue Collection, and photographs weddings there as a wedding photographer in Provence.
The setting
You walk between the buildings along a lantern-lit cobbled lane, then come out onto the gardens, the cypress-lined pool and the view over the hills. The stone reception room is the rain plan, and the lodge tents among the lavender can sleep a good share of the guests. The full venue visit, with capacity, accommodation and budget, is in the article Clos du Tuilier, a wedding venue in Oppedette.
His approach at Clos du Tuilier
Nothing breaks the horizon: the hills change colour all day, and the sun sets over a landscape without a single modern building. He has long photographed between the Hautes-Alpes and Provence, and this Haute-Provence light, clear by day and very soft in the evening, suits natural, flash-free photography.

Getting there and planning the day
Clos du Tuilier is about an hour and a quarter from Aix-en-Provence and Marseille airport, and close to Forcalquier, Apt and Banon for guests staying off site. Because so many guests can sleep on the estate, couples here often plan the whole weekend together: a relaxed dinner on Friday, the wedding on Saturday and a long brunch by the pool on Sunday. The lavender flowers from late June to mid July, and early autumn brings softer light and cooler evenings.
Booking
He photographs only one wedding per weekend and builds the timeline with you, hour by hour. He knows Haute-Provence well, from Mas des 5 Fontaines to Sisteron. For a wedding at Clos du Tuilier, get in touch.
"Every place has its own light. My role is to translate it into images that last."
