COCO BARN WEDDING & ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

Are you searching for a Wedding or Event photographer in Coco barn?

I have been covering over 170 Weddings since July 2014, I can say that I am full of advice and help for your big day.

My couples are similar and so different at the same time. I would say that they have certain similar characteristics, they prefer to spend time with their families and friends rather than spending an hour taking the couple photos, they are usually shy, they don’t feel at ease to be the center of the attention, they have a certain knowledge about art, sometimes photography and painting.

Do you want to have an intimate wedding in Coco barn that reflects your journey as a couple, your passions, and your spirit of adventure?  

This is elopement photography for couples who want to ignore tradition and get married in a way that feels authentic to them. As a photographer, my purpose is to discreetly capture the story of your day in an honest and heartfelt way, without posing or intruding. I will record every aspect, from the raw emotions and poignant moments as they unfold, to the details you won’t want to forget.

I care deeply about creating meaningful connections with every couple who invites me to be a part of their journey. My approach is to innovate, not to conform to conventions. Your elopement experience should be as personal, genuine, and unique as you are.

Emotional Photographer documenting emotional Weddings.

Since July 2014, I document your intimate wedding, your Minimony, Sequel Wedding, Micro wedding or Adventurous Elopement, proposal, and engagement and I have seen a lot of love stories, full of joy and emotions. It has a lot of different names but only the story matters. I am moved by telling the story of your day in the most natural and genuine way possible. No need to spend one hour behind the church with me to take the couple photographs, I will always value letting you spend time with family and friends. This is your day, not mine.

Most of my couples define themselves as shy in front of the camera, I believe simply they don’t know how easy it is to spend a few simple moments with their partner in front of my camera. I will follow you from getting ready to the dance floor in the most natural way possible. To deliver a poetic and unique vision of the most important day of your life.
I have a lot of experience and expertise in traveling around Europe mostly. For the last 6 years, I have covered most of my weddings abroad and overseas.

I believe I can help you with my experience and advice for a perfect wedding day. I have prepared some articles to help you to find the right place to get married or to be inspired in some places like Spain, The Balearic Islands such as Ibiza, Mallorca,… Mexico, Morocco and of course Portugal.

A bit of History about Coco Barn. Between Dax and Biarritz.

Dax (French pronunciation: [daks]; Dacs in Occitan) is a commune in Nouvelle-Aquitaine in southwestern France, sub-prefecture of the Landes department.

It is known as a spa, specialising in mud treatment for rheumatism and similar ailments.

It is also a market town, former bishopric and busy local centre, especially for the Chalosse area.

It was first established by the Romans, and its reputation is supposed to date from a visit by Julia, the daughter of the first Emperor Octavian Augustus. Its Roman name was Civitas Aquensium. In the Middle Ages, it was administered by viscounts until 1177. With the acquisition of Aquitaine by Henry II Plantagenet, later King of England, Dax remained under English rule until 1451, when it was conquered by French troops before the end of the Hundred Years' War. It successfully withstood a Spanish siege in 1521-1522.

Dax (pronounced [daks]; in Gascon Dacs) is a commune in southwestern France, located in the Landes department (Nouvelle-Aquitaine region). It belongs to the former province of Gascony. It is a very busy spa resort. Its inhabitants are called the Dacquois.

On the coat of arms of the city of Dax are a tower (representing the fortified city), a lion (symbol of Aquitaine) and the wavy sea (representation of the Adour river, the river port and very active port activity until the nineteenth century), as well as the old medieval name of the city “ACQS”, derived from Low Latin: “CIVITAS DE AQVIS”. The motto is "Regia Semper" ("Always royal"), that of a free city, which comes only under royal authority, and therefore emancipated from a seigneurial tutelage.

The first name of the city was Aquæ Tarbellicæ, which means “the waters of the Tarbelles” for the Romans who made it the capital of the Tarbelli pagus. The name will successively become Acqs, Acqs, then finally Dax. In Gascon, the name of the city is written Dacs. Finally, the Basque neighbors give it the name of Akize where we recognize the Latin root.

Dax is a city renowned since ancient times for its warm waters, for Landes and Spanish bullfighting and, among other things, for rugby (the Union sportive dacquoise was created in 1904).

It is at the heart of an urban area of 65,643 inhabitants and an urban unit of 50,366 inhabitants in 2017.

Dax, sub-prefecture of the Landes department, is located on the left bank of the Adour river (with a district, the Sablar, established on the right bank), halfway between Bayonne and Mont-de-Marsan.

City of Gascony, historically attached to Chalosse, Dax is nevertheless located at the crossroads of several regions: Chalosse to the south-east, Maremne and Seignanx to the south-west, Marensin to the north-west, and the Grande Lande to the North. The landscapes are therefore varied. The banks of the Adour see the barthes extend, to the south-east, the Chalosse - presents green hills, announcing the Béarn and the Lower Navarre. To the south-west stretch vast expanses of slightly undulating pines, while to the north begins the large wooded plain of the Landes de Gascogne.

Biarritz (UK: /bɪəˈrɪts, ˈbɪərɪts/ beer-ITS, BEER-its, US: /ˌbiːəˈrɪts, ˈbiːərɪts/ BEE-ə-RITS, -⁠rits, French: [bjaʁits], Basque: [bi.arits̻]; Basque also Miarritze [mi.arits̻e]; Occitan: Biàrritz [ˈbjarits]) is a city on the Bay of Biscay, on the Atlantic coast in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department in the French Basque Country in southwestern France. It is located 35 kilometres (22 mi) from the border with Spain. It is a luxurious seaside tourist destination known for the Hôtel du Palais (originally built for the Empress Eugénie circa 1855), its casinos in front of the sea and its surfing culture.

Biarritz is located in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region. It is adjacent to Bayonne and Anglet and 35 kilometres (22 mi) from the border with Spain. It is in the traditional province of Labourd in the French Basque Country.

The Asiatica Museum houses a significant collection of Asian art primarily from India, Nepal, Tibet, and China.

• Museum of the Sea has 24 aquariums containing sharks and seals.

• The Historical Museum of Biarritz, housed in the deconsecrated Anglican Church, St Andrew's.

• The annual Biarritz Surf Festival, founded in 1993 at the Côte des Basques, is one of the premier surf events in Europe and longboarding events in the world.
