Coralie Garavel
Paris, France Wedding & Family Photographer
Talented Photographer Captures Unique Moments
I’m Coralie Garavel, a wedding photographer based in Paris and Lyon, here to capture your big day with a mix of fun, emotion, and, let’s be honest, a good dose of good vibes! Forget stiff poses and forced smiles – what I love most is catching your bursts of laughter, happy tears (the pretty ones, not the onion ones), and all those little moments that make your wedding truly unique.
I’m always on the lookout for the quirky anecdotes that make your story one of a kind. Whether it’s an impromptu dance, a hilarious speech, or Uncle Gérard living his DJ superstar dream, I’ll be there to capture it all. I love weddings that are full of life, energy, and a little bit of chaos – the ones that don’t take themselves too seriously. With me, your memories will be real, funny, touching, and, most importantly, 100% you.
