Our last full day in Paris was our second wedding anniversary, and we had something really special planned -- professional pictures at the Eiffel Tower! I am so, SO excited to share these photos.
Here's how it all started: When planning our trip, I happened to come across this post on Fifi Cheek about a mother and daughter who had photos taken during a trip to Paris. The photos were just darling and my gears really started turning ... what if we could do something similar? I presented the idea to Ian and he was all for it (what? who are you, and what did you do with my husband?! ran through my head for a second). So the hunt began for a great photographer!
I am so happy that I came across Stacy Reeves with L'Amour de Paris. Stacy and her husband are from Dallas, but they got engaged in Paris and just truly felt pulled to the City of Lights, so they took a leap of faith and moved there!
It was so refreshing to get off of the Trocadero Metro stop, come above ground, and see this cute, bubbly American girl holding a pink camera bag and speaking with a Southern twang! We loved immersing ourselves in Parisian culture, but we felt so comfortable having an English-speaking photographer. Plus, she started off our session with the one question that cemented the fact that I really liked this gal -- she asked me if I had "a favorite side." Well yes, Stacy, I do! And how awesome that she took that into consideration for every photo!
Enough jabbering from me ... I'm going to leave the photos captionless, because I think Stacy does such an awesome job of telling a story with a picture -- no captions needed.
I already have framed a few small photos, and I'd love to get a large version of one of these on canvas. I'm so torn though! Help me decide -- which one should make the cut?
