YOUR PEOPLE. YOUR STORY.
The glances. The hugs that last a little longer. Your favourite people filling the dance floor. Your wedding, just as it felt.


01 — A little introduction
I’m Thao, the photographer behind Trentième Étage. More than 800 weddings over more than 20 years have shaped my approach. In Paris and across France, I photograph people, their connections and everything that makes a day its own.
You don’t need to feel confident in front of a camera. We take the time to get to know each other, then leave room for the moments to happen.

02 — Selected photographs
From the quiet preparations to the dance floor. A collection of glances, gestures and joy.
A wedding, lived fully
Getting ready. Holding hands. Finding your people. Dancing until you forget the camera.

03 — The way I see it
Beautiful light for your portraits. A few minutes together. Your favourite people nearby. And time to get back to the party. We plan the photography around your day.
Approach & pricingParis, and wherever your story takes you
More than 800 weddings photographed over more than 20 years. I’m Thao, the photographer behind Trentième Étage. From Paris and Île-de-France to Provence, Corsica and Geneva, I photograph the people, gestures and emotions that make each celebration its own.
A civil ceremony in Paris, preparations in two places, a reception outside the city: we plan the photographs around your actual day. Share your ceremony and reception addresses, the moments that matter and your date. We will discuss coverage, travel and the photographs you want to keep.
Wedding reportage : 2,800 €. Civil ceremony coverage from 690 €. Your proposal confirms coverage, deliverables and any travel costs.
