About

Bonjour !

I’m Mei Lou, a French Devon-based wedding photographer, creating poetic and vibrant imagery for relaxed, madly in love couples. I specialise in destination weddings across the UK, France, Europe, and beyond — capturing real moments with heart, empathy, and soul.

My style is a blend of documentary storytelling and timeless elegance — full of colour, emotion, and joyful connection. I’m here to photograph not just how your day looks, but how it feels.

By being emotionally connected and fully present, I help you feel special, seen, and celebrated. It’s this bond that allows me to capture all the little glances, big feelings, and unforgettable moments — authentically and beautifully.

I proudly welcome and celebrate all lovers — LGBTQIA+ couples, multicultural and mixed-heritage love stories, and couples of all abilities. Your love deserves a safe, inclusive, and respectful space where you can be fully yourselves, without explanation or limitation.

Whether you’re planning a cliffside ceremony in Devon, a Mediterranean wedding in the South of France, or a celebration anywhere your love takes you — I’d be honoured to tell your story.

Welcome to my space ✨

Love,
Mei Lou 💖

Maddie and Felix at Arnos Vale 04/04/26

Mei Lou was absoulutely fantastic on our wedding day and in the run up - her communication was brilliant! All our guests reflected that she was so sunshiny and fab at getting everyone organised! She fitted into the room seamlessly when both Felix and I were getting ready and gelled really well with our hair and make up vendors!

We cannot recommend her enough. BOOK HER!

Perfect photographer for our perfect day

We truly cannot say enough amazing things about Mei Lou! From the very beginning, she was an absolute dream to work with. On a day that can feel overwhelming and fast-paced, Mei brought such a calm, confident, and reassuring presence that instantly put us at ease. Knowing she was there capturing everything allowed us to fully relax and enjoy every second.
What impressed us most was how perfectly she captured the essence of our wedding day. Every photo tells a story. She didn’t just take pictures — she documented moments. From the emotion-filled ceremony at The Sugar House at Hotel Du Vin to the laughter and joy that carried through to our reception at The Ostrich pub in Redcliffe, she preserved the entire atmosphere so beautifully.
The big highlights are all there — the look on our faces when we saw each other for the first time, the happy tears during the ceremony, the heartfelt speeches, and the packed dance floor later in the evening. But what makes her work truly special are the in-between moments she caught so effortlessly — the quiet hand squeezes, the shared glances, the spontaneous bursts of laughter from our family and friends. Those candid shots mean the world to us.
Her attention to detail is incredible. The lighting inside The Sugar House felt warm and romantic, and she captured it perfectly. At The Ostrich, she beautifully reflected the relaxed, joyful energy of the evening celebrations. Every image feels natural, timeless, and completely authentic to us. Nothing feels forced or overly posed — she guided us when needed but gave us space to just be ourselves, which made such a difference.
So many of our guests commented on how friendly, professional, and unobtrusive Mei was. She blended seamlessly into the day while somehow managing to be everywhere at once, catching moments we didn’t even realise were happening.
Looking through our gallery feels like reliving the entire day from start to finish. These photos are something we will treasure for the rest of our lives, and we are so incredibly grateful to Mei for capturing our wedding so perfectly.
Hiring Mei Lou was truly one of the best decisions we made. If you’re considering booking her — do it. You will not regret it!

An exceptional photographer who truly understands families

We honestly cannot recommend Mei Lou highly enough.

From the very beginning, she was warm, calm, and completely professional, but what truly sets her apart is how naturally she connected with our family on the day. One of our biggest concerns was ensuring our autistic non verbal son felt comfortable and supported, and she went above and beyond in every possible way. So many of our guests commented on how incredible she was with him, and because of that, we were able to relax and genuinely enjoy the day as a family.

We also had someone very important attending who didn’t want to be in the limelight, and this was handled with total respect and discretion. It was managed so subtly and thoughtfully that it never felt awkward or stressful at all, which, with everything else we had to plan, made such a difference on the day.

Nothing ever felt forced or staged. She captured us exactly as we are, real moments, real emotions, and beautiful interactions, and the photos reflect that perfectly. The images are absolutely incredible and allow us to relive the day, which went by far too quickly.

Her calm presence made everything feel effortless. She created a supportive atmosphere that allowed everyone to feel at ease, and we are so grateful to have these memories captured so beautifully.

If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, intuitive, and genuinely invested in your family, look no further.

Mei Lou is fantastic!

Mei Lou was our second shooter for our wedding day and we are so pleased with the shots she was able to get in addition to our main photographer. On the day, Mei Lou was such a happy presence- everyone was commenting on how sweet she was with her huge smile all day! She captured some of our favourite shots for the day and worked so seamlessly with our other photographer!

Perfect photos to capture the memories of our wedding day!

We are so happy with our wedding photos! Mei Lou beautifully captured the autumnal atmosphere and the details from our venue. She was on point with her presence on the day, making everyone feel very at ease. It's also very useful to have a photographer that speaks both English and French fluently for an international family like ours.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
