Sydney Wedding Photographer
Florent Vidal Photography’s wedding images are a blend of intimacy and boldness.
Like a voice in a narrative, they radiate both warmth and an edge. And just as memories transcend time, our photographs have the power to awaken emotions long after your wedding day. As one of the most unique wedding photographers in Sydney, your wedding images are guaranteed to be distinctly different and memorable.
We love the city of Sydney and have photographed countless weddings around this beautiful city! Its breathtaking coastline along the Eastern Suburbs and Northern Beaches gives us boundless opportunities to create awe-inspiring wedding images that highlight Sydney’s landscape, while taking you on a mesmerising journey through the most unforgettable moments of your special day.
Florent Vidal Photography’s Sydney wedding photography captures the essence of a couple’s love and emotion on their wedding day while using Sydney’s natural beauty and architecture to create artistic wedding portraits.
As Sydney wedding photographers, we know that some of the most meaningful moments can't be staged. They happen naturally, often in between everything else. After photographing weddings for many years, we've learned to anticipate those moments and quietly capture them without interrupting them.
We believe the best wedding photographer is someone who gives you the freedom to simply experience your day. To laugh with your favourite people, hug your grandparents a little longer, cry during your vows and soak in every moment without feeling like you're constantly being photographed.
When you're truly present, that's when the magic happens.
Your wedding photos become more than beautiful images—they become memories that bring you back to exactly how you felt. Years from now, they'll remind you not only of how your wedding looked, but of what it felt like to be there.
Whether we're photographing against Sydney's iconic harbour, hidden laneways, elegant gardens or beautiful coastline, Florent is always looking for the light, the landscape and the little moments that make your wedding uniquely yours.
Every couple and every location has its own story, and we love creating wedding portraits that feel natural, timeless and unmistakably you.
It’s your story that creates beautiful images.

As a general guide:
3-hour coverage – Ideal for intimate weddings and elopements. This usually includes the ceremony, family and friends photos, couple portraits, and either one partner's preparations or the beginning of your reception.
6-hour coverage – Perfect for couples wanting the key moments captured, including both getting ready, the ceremony, family and group photos, couple portraits, canapés, and the start of the reception.
8-hour coverage – Our most popular option. It allows plenty of time for both preparations, a relaxed couple portrait session, family photos, a sunset or golden hour session, and all the important reception moments.
10-hour coverage – The ultimate storytelling package. From the excitement of getting ready through to the dance floor and your grand exit, this coverage captures your entire wedding day without feeling rushed.
