I'm Meryll,
Wedding Videographer Provence, French Riviera,
I’m Meryll, a destination wedding videographer based in Provence, France, with a dedicated team in Thailand. Since 2014, I’ve been capturing weddings across more than 10 countries – from the lavender fields of Provence and the glamour of the French Riviera to intimate ceremonies in Thailand, Japan, and Vietnam.
My approach is simple: every couple has a story worth telling. I don’t just film wedding days, I create cinematic wedding films that capture who you are as a couple. Whether it’s a luxury estate in the South of France or an elopement in Southeast Asia, I bring the same passion for documentary storytelling and authentic moments.
Honored as “Best Wedding Videographer France” (2021-2025), I’m available worldwide for couples seeking a wedding videographer who truly understands destination weddings.
Working with international couplesplanning weddings abroad.
From the first call to the final film, I work remotely with couples living abroad and getting married in Europe or Asia.

Weddings films with narrative
A good wedding film is not just about beautiful imagery,but a great storytelling.
We all have a story to tell. You are getting married abroad, and you want this day to be filmed to show your families and friends all that happened, because you want it to be saved, as it should be. But as a destination wedding videographer, based on the French Riviera whose interests are people and what make them unique, my vision is slightly different.
Firstly, you, as a couple or individual, are unique, and you build together something singular that is your story. There is much more to show than only what happened during your wedding day. My work is going beyond what most of the couples generally expect. Have a look at this destination wedding in Italy (Tropea, Calabria), or this wedding in the French Alpes in the Journal. Just FYI, a wedding in Japan has always been on my creative bucket list.
Secondly, it’s just like going to the cinema at the precise moment when the hero wins the game and is exalts in the climax; but would you understand why he had to fight to win this game?
Thirdly, and most importantly, you deserve your story to be told, and you have this great opportunity to have someone do a destination wedding video for you, so why not jump on board and get a much more emotional film by telling your story? That would be a real souvenir for your families, friends, and children. My destination wedding videographer packages include a storytelling work highlighting a part of your story related to your wedding.
Are you Story or Classic?
Narrative film are stories of couples told through wedding film, Classic films only reflect the wedding day, still authentic, dynamic and moving films.
Narrative film
These films incorporate a narrative, a process that allows part of the couple’s story to be told through the wedding film, using archive footage, sessions filmed before the wedding day, of course, the event itself.
Classic film
Each film is different, based on the uniqueness that represents each couple and each personality; and incorporates images from the wedding day, always with a common thread.
I truly believe in the value of every person, every couple, every madness.
Destination Weddings
Destination Wedding Locations
As a destination wedding videographer, destination weddings are at the heart of my creative approach. Working in new environments keeps each film unique and prevents repetition. Every destination wedding brings a different light, pace, and atmosphere, allowing me to tell stories with a fresh perspective and genuine intention. I often work with international couples living in the Middle East, Europe and the US.
Provence & French Riviera are my home base, with access to luxury estates, vineyards, and iconic Mediterranean settings.
Thailand is a destination I know well, with regular projects in Phuket, Koh Samui, Bangkok, and Chiang Mai, supported by a local team.
Japan, from Tokyo to Kyoto, inspires refined destination weddings and intimate elopements, with a strong focus on culture, minimalism, and storytelling.
Vietnam, including Hanoi, Hoi An, and Phu Quoc, offers a rich blend of elegance, tradition, and cinematic landscapes for destination celebrations.
Spending several days on location allows for deeper immersion with each couple. This time creates more authentic connections, richer narratives, and films that reflect not only the wedding day, but the journey surrounding it. Travel naturally sharpens my eye and elevates the emotional depth of my work.

As seen in
I have a clearly defined cinematographic filming style. Ambient sounds, voices and music hold significant places in my work. They enrich the storytelling and reveal the depth of the emotions. Each of my destination wedding films is edited differently with a backdrop story I create as a reflection of the bond that unites my couples. None of this would be possible without taking the time to get to know my clients and knowing what defines them as a couple. Every detail counts, and when put together, they translate into video what I have in mind before shooting.
Half the time, yes, I’m a solo destination wedding videographer. I also work with one or two other second shooters when the couple preparations take place in different locations, when the number of guests is significant, or simply when the bride and groom wish for more shots from different angles. Have a look at this destination wedding in France where I was solo.
I’m a wedding videographer based in the south of France. Since I love to travel, discover new cultures, new places and bring back amazing images, I have no limits for destination weddings. Nowadays, couples need to escape, create different, innovative and unbridled weddings abroad, far from the usual constraints. So I travel everywhere in the world and speak English & French. I’ve recently shot a wedding in Marrakesh, New-York, Bangkok or Costa Rica to cover beautiful weddings. I’m looking forward to travelling farther ! I’m a destination wedding videographer based in Provence and French Riviera as well as in Thailand.
Yes. I work as a destination wedding videographer for international couples living abroad, including clients based in Dubai, Japan, U.S, UK who plan their weddings in France or across Asia.
My workflow is fully designed for remote planning, with clear communication in English, video calls across time zones, and close collaboration with local wedding planners and venues.
Whether your destination wedding takes place in Provence, the French Riviera, or Asia, the entire process is structured to make the experience simple, fluid, and stress free, from the first conversation to the final film.
A destination wedding videographer brings a fresh perspective to your celebration. When I travel to Thailand, Japan, or a château in Provence, I approach each location with curiosity and creative energy. I spend 3-5 days with my couples, capturing not just the ceremony but the entire journey of your destination wedding.
I love to take the time to connect with my couples, their guests, and providers on the morning of the day of, by arriving ahead of time. This time is also precious to me so that I can locate places, choose the best angles, and anticipate the unexpected. Extra hours are not charged, because I know that your schedule is often flexible. As a destination wedding videographer, the value of my work is created on the day of, and as a result, I don’t complete a shoot without being sure I have captured the images I need.
As each couple has a story to tell, as a wedding videographer France I work on each of my projects without looking at my watch. The main thing is the quality of the result, no matter if I shoot a wedding in Italy, wedding in Spain, Greece, wedding in Thailand, Vietnam f.e. From the selection of the clips to the choice of music or the writing of stoytelling, I pay particular attention to details, because when added together, they really make all the difference.
For each of my wedding packages, I offer a collection of two films, with a unique and emotional impact: a short film, edited with the codes used in cinema: editing, color grading, storytelling, music and dynamics. This non-linear and artistic film is perfect to relive your events. There is no better format than this one to share the essentials of your beautiful day with your loved ones. A 15 min. long film, chronologically edited, mixing ambient sounds, rhythmic music and dynamic shots to dive into this day. You can watch the short wedding films here.
I offer to cover the day before and/or the brunch on the day after, all these magical moments out of the wedding are really important in my work. In addition to the short and the long film, I can edit the video of the complete ceremony, a video containing all the speeches, and I also offer additional shooters and other à-la-carte options.
Before you book, we have to make sure we match. I always offer my future bride and groom the opportunity to meet face-to-face, wether in person or via Skype. It allows us to get to know each other, to discuss what is important to them and what defines them as a couple. If the feeling is right, I then send all the booking details. I remain available until the wedding in order to elaborate further details.
