welcome to our world of

and romantic

bonjour!
For the past 12 years, we scouted the best locations in Paris, and spent countless sunrises under the Eiffel Tower, perfecting the art of the epic 'champagne shower' photo.
Living one day with us, means understanding who we are. And why we are so deeply in love with the work that we do.
We moved to Paris and started with photography for our friends. A year later, one of them had a bit too much champagne and impulsively printed a random ceremony script at their hotel. The concept of an “elopement” wasn’t known back then, so it felt almost illegal. Helen read the script, thinking we might end up in a police station. But everything turned out beautifully. When we posted the photos and they were a huge success.
We know how to make the groom enjoy posing for wedding pictures and how to navigate Paris with minimal traffic. We know exactly what to do if it rains on your big day. We know the best times to start and finish. We have simple, sweet poses for shy couples who want fun photos but feel nervous about posing.
We know which spot at the Louvre best suits an elegant bride in a long mermaid dress and which is perfect for a fashion-forward bride in short dress.
