Elopement Photo-Shoot in Paris, Belinda and Peter

Wedding Photographer in Paris - One and Only Paris [photography]

Peter and Belinda are from Australia but reside in Singapore. Their love of Paris made it an easy choice as a destination for running off to get hitched. Holding the opinion that elopements should be spontaneous, they gave wedding planner Anne of Fete in France only eight days to arrange their big day. Anne worked her magic, including offering us as wedding photographers, and all turn out beautifully without a hitch.

Jeanette and Manny’s Engagement Shoot

Engagement Photos in Paris- One and Only Paris Photography

Jeanette and Manny left sunshine and warm weather in Miami for a trip to Europe. Manny chose Rome for his proposal then whisked Jeanette off to the romantic setting of Paris to hire us as their engagement photographers. The only day they had free ended up being the coldest day of 2009 in Paris. It worked out well for our photos because Jeanette spent the engagement shoot snuggling up to Manny in the chilly December streets of Paris.

You’d think a rainy engagement shoot in Paris would be challenging for a photographer, but the day passed quite nicely. The moody Parisian atmosphere merely added to the romance of these photos out and about in the city of love.

Wedding Photographer in Paris- One and Only Paris [photography]

My years of being a photographer in Paris have shown me that a wedding in the Montmartre area of Paris is a common fantasy for those with a heavy crush on the city of love. It’s the most romanticized area of Paris having been home to what seems like every artist and intellect of the Belle Époque. The Moulin Rouge lies under the shadows of the majestic domes of the Basilica of the Sacré Coeur. Lovers of French films will know it as Amélie Poulain’s neighborhood. So it’s easy to see why this setting is a dreamy wedding-day playground.

Our bride moved here from her native Australia after being seduced by this enticing city. Clearly susceptible to the enchantment of Parisian charms, Rachael was happy to stroll through the legendary streets of Montmartre with her French beau. Arnaud guided her along the famously winding streets of this neighborhood on the way from the wedding ceremony to their reception hall at the foot of the aforementioned Basilica.

My most difficult task as their wedding photographer during this lovely walk was having the discipline to resist pausing at every turn for more photos. On route to the wedding party, we stopped to play in sights so quaint that they seemed to be movie sets. Being keenly aware of the rich history of the area added a feel that goes beyond the happiness of being surrounded my picturesque sights. That mix of history and beauty is the alchemy that renders the unrivaled allure of Paris.
