SESSIONS & Investment
Lavender sessions in Provence — from a quiet golden-hour portrait to a fully styled cinematic experience
The Lavender Season June 18-July 8 in 2026

The lavender fields bloom for only 2–3 weeks each year — and every season, the exact timing changes slightly depending on the weather.

Each year, my guests travel to Provence from all over the world specifically to experience this magical season and create their photoshoot among the lavender fields.

I take only a limited number of sessions during this period, as the most beautiful light is at sunrise and sunset.

So if you dream of being in Provence for the lavender season 2026, I highly recommend booking your date in advance.

Half of the available dates are already booked.

FAQ
Frequently asked Questions
  • Where do I need to go for the session?
    The lavender fields are located in the heart of Provence — near Valensole, Sault, and the Luberon plateau. Upon booking you will receive GPS coordinates and a detailed preparation guide with everything you need to arrive ready. The closest airports are Marseille (MRS) and Nice (NCE) — both offer easy access to the region by car.
  • What time will the session take place?
    You can choose between a sunrise session (golden hour — 5:30 am) or a sunset session (golden hour — 8:15 pm). These are the moments when the light is softest and the fields are at their most magical. Daytime sessions are possible, though golden hour is always recommended for the best results.
  • How many outfits can I bring? What will we have time for?
    It depends on your session — shorter sessions allow for one to two looks, while the Cinematic experience gives us time for more. As a local, I scout the most beautiful and photogenic spots ahead of time. Beyond lavender, we may also shoot in sunflower fields (mid-July), wheat fields, or among the wild herbs and oak forests of Provence depending on the season and your dates.
  • What should I wear? Do you help with styling?
    Yes — I provide styling guidance before every session. Flowing dresses, soft fabrics, and natural tones photograph beautifully in lavender. I also offer silk dress rental (100€ per dress) and can recommend local options. I'll help you plan the best sequence if you're bringing multiple looks.
  • I've never done a photoshoot before. Will you guide me?
    Absolutely. Most of my clients are not models — and that's exactly what makes these sessions so special. I'll guide you through natural, flattering poses and create a relaxed atmosphere so you feel at ease from the very first frame.
  • How do I book a session?
    Fill in the booking form on this page or DM me on Instagram. A 30% deposit is required to confirm your date — I'll send you all the details once we're in touch.
  • What happens if the weather is bad on the day of my session?
    Overcast mornings can actually be beautiful for lavender — soft, even light with no harsh shadows. In case of rain, we reschedule at no additional cost. I monitor the forecast closely and will be in touch if conditions look uncertain.
  • When will I receive my photos?
    Your edited gallery will be delivered within 2 weeks via an online gallery. If you need your images sooner, rush delivery is available — your full gallery within 48 hours for 500€.
