About

Jean de Malet

Descended from a pioneer of colour photography, I grew up surrounded by artists who passed on a love of excellence and creative innovation. A heritage that guides my artistic approach.

Detail and elegance during a wedding story

I have the mindset of someone in their thirties but I'm barely 26, married to a lovely Bordeaux native finishing her medical studies.

I love straightforward people, adventure, and stories that leave a mark.

My mission is for the photos to feel so alive that you can relive that day again and again.

I know how to put people at ease and bring out the best in them, for photos that feel alive and true.

"I was thirsty to create images with real meaning, images built to last.

I wanted to capture stories, moments and emotions that would endure."
Jean de Malet signature

What I look for can't be captured twice: a certain look, a precise light, a moment that won't come again. That pursuit of the exact detail runs through every wedding story I am trusted with.

In recent years,

I've had the honour of documenting exceptional couples at a major threshold in their story.

As co-founder of École de Malet, I now train the next generation of artists.

The client experience always remains my priority: it's by caring for every detail that my images reach their depth.
