A Fine Art reportage in Mas des 5 Fontaines
Mas des 5 Fontaines is an estate that carries the spirit of Haute-Provence within it: authentic, generous, far from tourist circuits and conventions. Situated on the outskirts of Sisteron in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, this stone mas offers a setting of rare sincerity, natural gardens planted with lavender and aromatic herbs, open views over the hills, and a particular light that is purer and clearer than elsewhere in Provence.
I photograph weddings here with particular pleasure. Haute-Provence is a region I am deeply fond of, its landscapes have something wilder, more intimate, that naturally finds its way into the images.
The setting at Mas des 5 Fontaines
The mas itself is an old stone building, sober and well-proportioned, surrounded by a natural garden that changes face with the seasons. In June, the lavender is in bloom and its scent fills the whole estate. In August, the dry grasses and warm stones create a palette of golden tones. In autumn, the garden trees dress the mas in red and gold.
The reception spaces combine a vaulted interior with open outdoor areas: a terrace with hill views, a convivial space under the trees, a lawn for the ceremony. The flexibility of the venue allows highly personalised weddings, far from standardised packages.
My approach at Mas des 5 Fontaines
The authenticity of Mas des 5 Fontaines calls for equally authentic photography: no artificial staging, no flash, no constrained poses. Natural portraits in the Haute-Provence light, moments captured through the day, a narrative that respects the unique atmosphere of the place.
The light of Haute-Provence is different from that of the coast: softer, purer, with a luminosity that reveals details and textures. It suits perfectly the Fine Art approach I champion.
The wedding day at Mas des 5 Fontaines
Getting ready in the mas rooms. Ceremony in the garden or beneath the trees. Cocktail hour on the terrace. Dinner indoors or outdoors depending on the season. Couple portraits at sunset with the Haute-Provence hills as backdrop.
