Private Portrait & Family Photo Sessions in St Barths

Welcome to a unique photographic experience where your story takes center stage. Specializing in private portrait photography, I create intimate, meaningful sessions that go beyond the traditional photo shoot. Whether you’re looking for an individual portrait, a couple’s session, or vibrant family photos, each moment is captured with authenticity and artistic flair.

My approach is relaxed and personalized: from the initial consultation to the final image, the focus is on your personality and relationships. During your private shooting, I take the time to understand your vision – your style, atmosphere and the emotions you wish to preserve. This ensures your portraits feel natural, expressive and entirely yours.

For families, every generation matters. A family photo session with me is about connection: I look for genuine smiles, tender glances, and spontaneous interactions. We craft images that reflect your bond, your story, and your place in time.

Based in St. Barths, yet available for travel, I bring fine-art quality and professional expertise to every shoot. The result? Timeless portraits and family photos that hang proudly above your fireplace, live in your albums, and become heirlooms for future generations.
