Julien in my opinion is not a wedding photographer but an artist. As a bride I could not have been happier with my wedding pictures as they captured the essence of every moment of my wedding day. The photographs are simply outstanding.
He was absolutely amazing and so artistic. The pictures look like they belong in a fashion magazine! I just love his work!!!
I was not able to attend my daughter's wedding because of surgery. Julien's photos make me feel as if I experienced the event firsthand.

No. There is no branding or marking on the High Resolution files. However, our brand logo Julien Leveau appears on a set of lower resolution images which we provide for distribution on social networks.
We shoot everything in color and convert images to black and white during our editing process. We also use proprietary editing techniques for toning and special effects. If an image is delivered in black and white, it is permanently black and white because once a photo is shot in film mode it is not possible to change it back to color.

We require a minimum of 30 minutes prior to the ceremony commencing. This enables us to document the location, photography any casual guests hanging out, and if allowed, entering the ‘getting ready’ suite to photograph a few reactions or emotions of your friends and family members. We may also photograph memorable items, details or anything that helps build the environment and the moments from which life happens. This could include photographing the wedding party in an interesting landscape and/or architectural backdrop.
We shoot wherever we can, and in some cases, may not be shooting images in front of the guests. We prefer to stay in close proximity to the reception area to make the best us of our time.
We require a minimum of 30-45 minutes to photograph the bride and groom and capture images of the reception set-up before guests arrive.

Definitely. Lace floating in crystal clear water gives amazing effects when photographed. Besides, we can make use of the veil before it gets wet.
Your dress have more chance to be trashed the night of the wedding than it will be in the ocean. If you prefer we can shoot in a rustic, anti-bridal environment and the results will still be exotic.
