Your wedding is about a story.
The ability to tell that story, to capture magical moments with the skill of a visual journalist and the sensibility of a lyrical observer, is what we do best. Since 1990, our company has engaged in the fine art of photographic storytelling. As principal of the studio, Olivier Lalin has always held the vision not only to document life’s important events but also to evoke both the expansive and intimate details of an instant. To show not just the dress or flowers, but life’s most revealing moments.
Today, Olivier Lalin Photographers is a full service studio that continues to preserve the most memorable times in a family’s life — childhood, wedding, special celebrations — in an elegant, refined style. We invite you to take a moment to browse our portfolios at www.weddinglight.com to gain a sense of our breadth of work.

Destination wedding photographer Paris France
A little while back i decided to just use film and my rolleiflex to photograph Pierre. There is not a day without a new photo of my son. He is so used to have me around with a camera, it is just very natural. Only i have been using digital since his birth and i have 1000 of files of Pierre not very organized in hard drive. So now, i go the old way and shoot film. Every negative is filed in plastic sleeves in a special archival box. Pierre’s special box … The chances are he is going to be a photographer one day! 
I would describe “The Jardin des Tuileries” as my oasis in Paris. Close to home, it is the park where the family goes for a stroll on weekends. It is built on a former quarry for clay used to make tiles and it is after this that it is named (tuilerie in French). The large park and garden extends from the front of the the Louvre on the eastern edge to the Place de la Concorde on west.
As the name suggests, the Jardin des Tuileries was a garden before it became a public park. The garden belonged to the Tuileries Palace described below and now forms part of the Axe historique (historical axis) of Paris which is also sometimes called the Voie Triomphale (triumphal way). It was designed by Andre Le Notre in 1664. The current layout faithfully retains this design.
A little sample wedding video worth watching to the end. There is quite a funny part where I, the photographer direct a crowd of jolly british fellows. The evening was orchestrated by three sopranos from the Paris opera. They were just amazing to watch and listen. The whole day took place at the chateau d’Ermenonville some 50km from Paris.

I have always gone for simple, classic, natural & elegant wedding style images and have always had in my mind the photographs of jackie kennedy’s wedding. The photograph of Jackie amid the Kennedy’s men is an all time classic iconic wedding image that drew me to direct my photographic career towards photographing elegant weddings. Fashion and style have evolved those past 50 years but those iconic photographs remain as being simply beautiful in my mind. We were lucky enough to photograph such a wedding in the Scenic Pennsylvania Countryside. We produced this classic wedding album made of a tight selection of some 30 5X7in black and white size images with a gorgeous rustic brown cowhide leather which could have come straight from the magnificent 50’s.
Call me old fashion … I love it !
This is the reason why we LOVE super 8mm video. A real beauty ! Later on, there were times she was more famous than her president– JFK introduced himself to an audience in France as “The man who accompanied Jacqueline Kennedy to Paris.”

We photographed the wedding of Sharon and Fred a little while back in the Loire vallee. Sharon had asked us to retouch a selection of her wedding photographs. The theme was château-chic. The colors gold, pink and ivory. By the way, the event was beautifully orchestrated by Anne at Fête in France. We aimed at enhancing the photographs to complement the theme of the day with some warm colors, grainy images, black and white and toned photographs.
Here is a little selection of the many beautiful images that we shot during that day. 
We always make sure that our clients are 100% happy and more. We provide high quality, customized services to fulfill your high expectations. We listen to our brides and we do our best to satisfy your wishes.
Here is our reward; a few words we have just received from Sharon, one of our bride.
“… Hi Olivier,
Fred and I received the video and watched it last night and we loved it! I especially liked the vintage look of some of the film and the way you integrated photos into it. And I really liked the music you chose for the preparation portion. My mother says she has watched the version on your blog 10 times and can’t wait for the full version to arrive.
I looked at the first selection of photos, they all look great, and I like that you did a number of different looks. I think my favorites are the ones with the vintage look/muted colors or black and white, although I really like the ones with the vivid colors too. Feel free to be as make them as artistic as you’d like (as opposed to realistic looking).
My mom asked to make sure you include a couple pictures with Fred’s parents in them, as well as one of me and my dad walking down the aisle (there is one with an ugly light pole in the background that she would like removed if you work on that one).
Thanks!…”
