The vision

The educators of Heritage & Coast are passionate wedding professionals, with many years of experience in their respective fields.

Each educator brings a strong professional background and a thoughtful, refined and authentic creative approach. Their work is shaped by experience, curiosity and a continuous desire to evolve, while remaining deeply connected to values of elegance, quality and knowledge sharing.

Beyond technical expertise, educators are selected for their ability to teach, share and inspire. They offer a personal perspective on their craft, a strong attention to detail, and a deep respect for places, teams and the stories they help bring to life.

Heritage & Coast brings together professionals who believe in a human, aesthetic and intentional approach to weddings, where each project is the result of collaboration, creativity and purpose.

Chrystèle Escure

Founder

My name is Chrystèle Escure, and I have been a professional wedding photographer for over 20 years.

Originally from South-West France, I have been living and working in Saint Barthélemy, in the Caribbean, for nearly 30 years. This dual background, blending European elegance with Caribbean light and energy, has deeply shaped my artistic eye and creative approach.

Throughout my career, I have photographed weddings in a wide range of settings, in France and internationally, always guided by a pursuit of elegance, authenticity, and refined storytelling. For me, weddings are far more than events; they are a meeting point between places, craftsmanship, emotion, and aesthetic vision.

Heritage & Coast was born from a very personal desire:

to celebrate the beauty, history, and culture of exceptional places, while creating meaningful educational and creative experiences for wedding professionals.

This project is a natural extension of my journey, bringing together experience, passion for weddings, love of beautiful locations, and attention to detail.

The first editions take place in South-West France, with future experiences unfolding in other inspiring destinations across Europe and beyond.
