I visited Paris in the fall last year and have posted few of my favorite photos on my Instagram page, but today I’m really excited to share my favorite shots from my shoot while I was there. I’m also sharing my favorite locations to take pictures because there is something so special about Paris and I plan on returning there soon! The architecture, local shops, food, all play a role in creating the romance that is in Paris. I was fortunate enough to travel to Paris to shoot Karen and Richard’s honeymoon. These two had a beautiful and intimate backyard wedding and then had an even more intimate honeymoon in Paris. It was my first time in the city and I did a lot of research on the best places to take pictures. I’m happy to share these locations with you in case you have the opportunity as well!
Our first stop in Paris was the Pont de Bir-Hakeim. This bridge is perfect for symmetrical shots and views around Paris. The bridge crosses the Seine River and is supported by steel columns with antique streetlights. This spot screams Paris in the 1920’s!
A walk from the bridge is Trocadéro, which holds beautiful views of the Eiffel Tower. This is the best place to get a fair shot of the Eiffel tower, and the rest of Paris included. We did this shoot at sunrise to avoid big crowds because this spot is a popular tourist destination.
From there we took an Uber to the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris (Sacré-Cœur Basilica) wich is a beautiful Catholic Church built in the early 1900’s. This spot shows the fantastic architecture and rich history that Paris holds. It was a bit difficult to shoot here because it is a major tourist attraction, but with patience, we pulled through a couple good shots!
Who can go to Paris without going to the Louvre Museum! Holding some of the worlds most magnificent artifacts and paintings this building is a spot that needs to be on your list to take pictures at. Just take a look at the photos!
Between walking to each location, we took a couple shots at local cafes, scenic areas, and even beautiful doorways. Paris is a city with many fantastic places to shoot. I’m delighted to be able to travel to Paris and experience shooting in the city of romance. Thank you Karen and Richard for having me shoot your honeymoon in the beautiful city of lights!
