Valérie Escandon Photographer | About

Hello, I am Valérie Escandon.  I've made my home and photography business between the beautiful cities of Geneva and Lausanne in the picturesque country of Switzerland.    I specialize in wedding photography, capturing moments of love, joy, and celebration that will last a lifetime.    From the earliest days of my childhood, I found myself deeply immersed in an artistic world.  This was largely thanks to my grandmother and my mother, who were both artists in their own right.  They helped me to see the world in a different light and to appreciate the beauty in the smallest details.    Movement, light, textures, and details quickly became the central elements of my artistic style, shaping it into something that is natural, editorial, and timeless.  Much like the couples I work with, I've always had a deep love for fashion, culture, and travel.     These passions have only served to enrich my work and perspective, adding a unique touch to every photograph I take.    When I partner with a couple, it's like a meeting of two worlds, each bringing something unique and special to the table.   The magic happens in that intersection, and that's why I believe they choose me.    I approach each love story like a journalist on assignment, telling it through a series of beautiful images.    However, I always maintain a natural and intimate approach, ensuring that the real emotions and moments are captured, not just the staged ones.    If I had to share a few words with my future couples, I would say:  "I will be there for you, every step of the way - before, during, and after your wedding. I will be the person who will listen to you, guide you, and help immortalize the intimacy and connection between you.  I will capture the big moments, the laughter, and the tears through my photographic eye, preserving your memories in a way that is timeless and beautiful."    In 2025, I will be limiting the number of weddings I take on to just 12.    This approach, whether in Switzerland or abroad, allows me to give my full attention and energy to each couple I work with.    So, if this message resonates with you, if you feel a connection with my style and approach, please do not hesitate to contact me.  I would be honored to be a part of your love story.
