Kyra emailed us that she had always dreamed of taking their engagement photos in Paris, after studying abroad there in college. By a kismet turn of fate, a week later we got an inquiry for a vow renewal in Portugal. When we knew we’d find ourselves in Europe, we reached out to K&A and all started planning a whirlwind 2 day trip to Paris!

We started walking around the Tuileries Gardens a few hours after landing, all telling stories from the previous times we had visited and watching all the Parisians on their daily commutes and routines. The florals perfectly coordinated with Kyra & Adam’s outfit choices, which felt like a bit of magic. We were planning on shooting the rest at sunrise but, because of what now feels like another beautiful twist of fate, there was a large chance of rain the next morning. So we rushed back to our apartment in the 5th and made our way to the Seine as quickly as we could. We arrived right as the sun was setting, and had an entire section all to ourselves. Of course, the nighttime shots along the Seine ended up being one of our favorite sets.

The next morning we woke up bright and early for our sunrise around the Eiffel Tower and it was probably one of the most magical shooting experiences we’ve ever had. As soon as we were done shooting, it started pouring. We ended with pancakes we all still dream about to this day. It was one of the most perfect shoots we’ve ever had, it felt like the whole universe was giving us a beautiful gift.
