It’s fun and romantic (and a great excuse to dress up!)

A way to capture the now, as we are always changing and growing.

The obvious! Beautiful images to remember, share and print.

Danielle and Tom - Île Saint-Louis Engagement Session

I had the pleasure of meeting the gorgeous Danielle, a ballerina from New York City and her Fiance, Tom while on a pre-wedding trip to Paris. It was a cold and raining morning, which is often the case in the fall. Even without the sun, of course Paris is still so so beautiful. We did their Paris engagement shoot in Île Saint-Louis which is an island in the middle of Paris and one of my favorite places to take photos. There are plenty of wonderful cafes, like my favorite Cafe St. Regis, and old streets and bridges. I can not think of a better parisian backdrop in all of Paris!
