Provence Documentary Film Wedding Photographer
Julia Jardim is a film wedding photographer working in Provence and specialising in authentic, unique wedding celebrations - from intimate elopements to multi-day weddings in a french Château.
Julia's photographs are spontaneous, candid, timeless and authentic - and always on film. Her artistic approach could be called photojournalistic or documentary, but is is also very uniquely hers. Julia focuses on creating images that are honest, unique, relevant. Julia is interested in life as it happens, so most of her work (with the exception of the more traditional portraits) is candid - she looks for the moments that are already there.
Julia focuses on what makes each wedding and couple unique and uses that as guidance for all the images captured on the wedding day. In other words, each wedding Julia photographs produces a very specific final collection of images unlike any other.
Julia believes empathy and a genuine interest in human connection are absolutely essential to creating a good photograph. Each of her wedding galleries is an honest testament to how it felt to be there on the day, amongst that specific group of people, collectively shaping the day.
Unlike most wedding work generally shot in Provence, Julia's photographs feel real rather than ultra-posed and editorial. She's more interested in images that feel unique and creative rather than trendy or staged, as memory and art are at the core of her approach.

Julia photographs weddings in London exclusively on 35mm and medium format film and has been doing so for many years. Most of her couples are already familiar with film as a medium and want that timeless, nostalgic, authentic quality in their wedding images, but other couples first choose Julia for her London weddings because of her spontaneous, effortless, candid photographic style.
