Photographer in Paris » Get great photos of you in Paris

The photos above explain why brides are willing to cross an ocean for a destination wedding in France. Alison and Philip chose the Chateau d’Artigny for their wedding in the dreamy French countryside. They hired us as their photographers, and the Paris based American event planners of Fete in France to plan their dream wedding.

The bride’s Swarovski crystal Louboutin Stilettos drew oohs and ahhs from every girl who cast eyes on them. Those sounds were bested by the reaction the veiled bride received when she entered the ceremony. What pairs better than a veil lit by enormous chateau windows? How about the trio of veil, grand windows, and the majestic marble staircase of this gorgeous French chateau? Now that’s an entrance. The virtual fireworks that scene caused were followed by real fireworks on the chateau grounds later that evening. The beautiful photo opportunities the day provide illuminates why photographers in France dream of destination weddings at charming countryside chateaus just as much as brides do.

We just had a full spread in Elle Magazine Taiwan. The magazine searched blogs from around the world looking for photos of some of the year’s best weddings for one of their features.  They found Melissa and Austin’s Louisiana wedding on Style Me Pretty and knew it fit the bill.  They were surprised that photographers based in Paris, France had shot the wedding. I explained that Melissa had found us looking for a Paris photographer for hire when she wanted engagement photos during her visit to the city of love. Later, she had to have us when she decided to import a little of Paris to her Rayville, Louisiana wedding.
