The history: This shoot was part of an annual art photography workshop conducted by Christophe Serrano in the south of France. The concept of this year’s workshop was lavender as an homage to the breathtaking lavender fields of Provence. Christophe and his team also wanted to honor the “bright” shade of yellow, the Pantone’s color of the year 2021. This combination of lavender and lemon is reminiscent of traditional Provencal tablecloths.

The site: That Mas d’Avrieux is a stunning property that offers a wedding reception area, luxurious rustic accommodations and a swimming pool. It is in an idyllic setting near other villages (e.g. Tarascon, Les Baux de Provence and Gordes), which guests can explore in peace.

The atmosphere: Rustic Provencal charm for the perfect wedding weekend. This shoot was about enjoying the fullness of Provence and celebrating everything local. Gorgeous accommodation, chic but accessible decor, and top notch food, wine, and products.

The details: Pièces Uniques location unique dishes, accessories and decorations that create an undeniably Provencal ambience. The newlyweds were also dressed by local vendors, including Chord parfait. For your beauty needs, Sophie Gayler from Inexis Studio, an eco-friendly hair salon in Toulon, was there to work its magic.
