I’m Mei Lou - yes a double barrelled name :) - maternity obsessed, child lover & hopeless romantic.

French Photographer based in Bristol UK, and everywhere you might need me.

We have worked with Mei Lou over several years and she has seen our family evolve over time. With that, we keep wanting to work with her because of the ease we feel during sessions and the beautiful moments she artfully captures. Her editing is thoughtful and open to suggestions. Each time we receive the prints we instantly want to rebook.
