Wedding Photographer at Château Barthélémy: Marina & Hisa, a Japanese Wedding in France
Welcome to the magical world of Château Barthélémy! Today, we are excited to share the story of Marina & Hisa’s wedding, a Japanese couple who chose to celebrate their love in this enchanting venue in the heart of France. A day filled with emotion, laughter, and unforgettable moments.




A Wedding Day Beginning at Château Barthélémy
The day started in the stunning stables of the Château, which had been transformed into luxurious suites to welcome Hisa and his groomsmen. These preparation moments, often filled with camaraderie and joy, are the perfect opportunity to capture authentic and spontaneous photographs.



Meanwhile, Marina was in the Château’s orangery, surrounded by her bridesmaids. In this beautifully sunlit space, she was pampered by Katia Ren, a talented hair and makeup artist with whom we regularly collaborate. It was a pleasure to see Katia again, as her work always enhances the beauty of every bri
The Little Details That Make a Difference
Every wedding is made unique by the little details that define it. Marina wore an elegant and refined gown, paired with delicate jewelry and perfectly matched shoes. Before slipping into her dress, Marina and her bridesmaids shared a joyful moment over a bottle of champagne. The laughter and emotions were palpable—moments we love to immortalize in photos.
Once she was ready, Marina revealed her stunning bridal look, assisted by her bridesmaids. We then took a few portraits in the soft light of the orangery before heading to Hisa for the long-awaited First Look.
















A First Look in a Royal Setting
Marina and Hisa’s First Look took place in the grand hall of Château Barthélémy, a beautifully decorated and majestic space. This moment is always one of the most powerful in a wedding—the discovery of each other in wedding attire, the exchanged glances, the overwhelming emotions.
After this intimate and emotional moment, we took advantage of the Château’s gardens for a stunning couple’s photo session. The lush greenery and flower-lined pathways provided a dreamlike setting to capture their love.








A Heartfelt Ceremony in the Forest Clearing
The ceremony was held in the Château’s forest clearing, an absolutely breathtaking location. Officiated by Efren Prieto, the ceremony was filled with both laughter and tears of joy. The guests, who had traveled all the way from Japan to celebrate this special day, were deeply touched by the sincerity and beauty of the moment.






















An Elegant Cocktail and Dinner Reception
Following the ceremony, a cocktail reception was held in the Château’s gardens. Guests enjoyed exquisite delicacies while soaking in the stunning surroundings.
Dinner was originally planned to take place outdoors but was ultimately moved inside due to unpredictable weather. And what a great decision it was! Just as the newlyweds made their grand entrance into the reception hall, raindrops began to fall. Far from dampening the mood, this unexpected twist added even more charm and memorability to their wedding day.

















A Lively and Joyful Evening
The evening was punctuated by heartfelt speeches and festive moments, culminating in the grand dessert presentation on the Château’s terrace by the pool. The guests applauded enthusiastically at this final surprise before Marina & Hisa opened the dance floor with a perfectly choreographed waltz.
