These cold winter days have me longing for Paris in the springtime. It’s a great time of year to be a Paris photographer. True romantics are already planning their spring getaway to the city of love, so I’m throwing out a little advice. The best Paris photos start with a great dress (or three). Voila! There’s your excuse to add shopping to the planning list. Above are a few photos from James and Kea’s Paris engagement shoot to inspire you.
We just had a full spread in Elle Magazine Taiwan. The magazine scoured the blogs looking for photos of some of the year’s best weddings from around the world for one of their features. They found Melissa and Austin’s Louisiana wedding on Style Me Pretty and knew it fit the bill. When they were surprised that Paris photographers shot the wedding, I explained that we had done a shoot during her visit to the city of love, and she had to have us when she decided to import a little of Paris to her Rayville wedding.

My favorite Paris photographers from the ‘50s and ‘60s had an advantage I envy. In those days men in Paris put on a nice cut suit virtually every day. Jack made my job easy by donning a sartorial work that tailors from the golden age of Paris fashion would be proud to call their own. As soon as we finished editing Maria and Jack’s elopement photos, my wife and fellow Paris photographer Audrey did two things. She burnt my cargo pants, and submitted this beautiful couple to Style Me Pretty . . . in that order. Take a look at Maria for more proof that the sharp dressed man gets the pretty girl. Rendez-Vous in Paris made Maris’s big day a dream.

We were flattered that Jessica chose us as her Paris photographer. She’s a branding manager at a New York branding and design agency. In her spare time, she’s a contributing writer to a wedding blog, and had her own stylish wedding featured on Style Me Pretty. When Scott whisked her away to the city of love for their first anniversary, Jessica chose us as her anniversary photographer in Paris. She based her choice on our “timeless and romantic style” of shooting at our signature Paris locations. That makes sense, seeing her choices in hair, makeup, dress, heels, and man. She’s an enviable subject for any Paris photographer. I’m glad she chose us.
What Paris wedding photographer wouldn’t gush about being posted on Vera Wang’s Unveiled wedding blog? I’m not sure how Vera Wang felt about us dragging the hem of one of her beautiful creations through the rainy city streets of Paris, but the bride knew the dress would look quite at home surrounded by the timeless views of the City of Love. As you can see from the wedding photos posted in Vera Wang’s Real Weddings, Angeli was right.

Eloping to Paris is beautiful in its simplicity. The city of love is made for fairytale weddings of all sizes. Some couples choose to have only the closest of family attend the ceremony. Paradoxically, some understated elopement gowns are just made to be shown off. As a Paris photographer I love to shoot elopements with the goal of showing everyone back home how stunning your bride looked in white.
