About Nice
Nice is the cultural capital of the French Riviera. The Promenade des Anglais at sunrise, the warm-ochre old town, Castle Hill overlooking the Baie des Anges, every block is a postcard with substance.
Private events in Nice range from salon dinners at the Negresco to rooftop parties above the Promenade des Anglais and long tables in the lanes of Vieux Nice. The city's advantage is its blue hour: the Baie des Anges holds colour long after sunset, and terraces facing west catch it in full. We build the coverage around that window, then stay with the party as it moves inside.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a private event photographer cost in Nice?
Event coverage in Nice starts at 790 € all taxes included for one hour, 1,890 € for a half-day and 2,890 € for a full day. Multi-day celebrations run on the 5,490 € weekend rate. Editing, retouching and the complete first images within 48 hours are included.
Can you photograph an event at the Negresco or a rooftop venue?
Yes. We regularly work in Nice's palace salons and on rooftop terraces above the Promenade des Anglais, and we coordinate directly with the venue on timing and access. For rooftop events we plan the group photographs around blue hour, when the bay is at its best.
How late do you stay at an evening event?
As late as the format you book allows, and we plan the hours around your programme rather than the clock. For most dinners, coverage from the aperitif through the first hours of dancing captures everything that matters. Extra hours can always be added in advance.
Do you sign NDAs for private events in Nice?
Yes, on request and without discussion. Discretion is standard in our work: we never publish images from a private event without your written consent, and we can deliver through a password-protected gallery restricted to you alone.
