Getting married in Metz
Metz marries on Wednesday mornings, Friday afternoons and all Saturday, in a salon for eighteen seated. That number decides the photography: inside is the couple and the closest circle; everyone else meets you on the Place d’Armes, where the cathedral, the square and the Opera make a fifteen-minute portrait walk from the door. Fifty-one minutes from the studio.
