Katell Desormeaux photographe

I’m Katell, a lifestyle photographer based in Béziers, and my specialty is family photography. My work focuses on freezing the small everyday moments that, in a few years, will become your most precious memories: morning cuddles, knowing glances, and the tender gestures between siblings. I love working with natural light — the sun is my hero — to create authentic, soft, luminous images full of emotion. Why choose me for your family session? Because I don’t stage catalogue poses: I tell your story. My approach is documentary and caring: I accompany you like I’m doing a reportage, guiding when needed but always privileging true moments. As a mother and a trained creative, I understand the importance of these instants and know how to capture them with patience and sensitivity. My stylistic philosophy can be summed up in a few words: authentic, gentle, luminous, emotional. I favour warm contrasts and compositions that highlight the relationship between you. Each session is designed to reflect your daily life — at home or outdoors — so your photos genuinely express your way of loving. How does a session work? Everything starts with our conversation: I send a short questionnaire to get to know your family and identify what matters to you. On the day, we take our time to settle in, often over a coffee, and then let the session unfold naturally. I look for the best light in the space and capture movement, laughter and quiet moments. For newborn and maternity photography I pay special attention to details: tiny hands, soft hair, and newborn gazes. Beyond the images, I offer an experience: a relaxed, playful and sharing moment you will keep in your heart. Based in Béziers and serving the Hérault area and surroundings, I’m happy to work with families who want sincere and timeless photos. If you want to create true, luminous memories, let’s talk — I look forward to meeting you and telling your story in images.
