Studio Photo Philippe Calvo

I’m Philippe Calvo, a wedding photographer based in Pau — a passionate observer of images and people. As a specialist in wedding reportage, I have made honest, unobtrusive storytelling my signature: my goal is to capture the looks, gestures and emotions that make each union unique. With over ten years of practice and more than 150 weddings photographed, I favor a natural, minimally posed style focused on authenticity and spontaneity. My approach is built on listening, simplicity, sharing and trust. Before the big day we take the time to meet at the studio in Billère (Pau) to discuss your wishes, the key moments of the day and, if you wish, to arrange an engagement session. These preparatory sessions help create rapport, get comfortable with the camera and produce relaxed, genuine couple photos on the wedding day. On the wedding day I act as an attentive witness: discreet but present, I balance candid moments with a few more composed shots when that matches your expectations. My reportage approach aims to tell the story of your day in its entirety — from preparations to the shared moments — prioritizing light, expressions and atmosphere. The retouching I apply is understated and respectful: images that remain timeless, natural and elegant. I travel across Pau, the Béarn, the Basque Country and the Landes, and I offer delivery formats adapted to your memories: wooden USB boxes, professional photo books and quality prints. Every reportage is customizable; I build bespoke packages to suit your priorities and preserve the spirit of your day. Choosing Studio Photo Philippe Calvo means choosing a wedding photographer committed to the sensitive storytelling of your story. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Pau who blends discretion, emotion and aesthetics, I would be happy to speak with you and imagine together the reportage that reflects who you are.
