How to Choose an English-Speaking Paris Photographer for Your Portrait Session-

Portfolio and Style Alignment:

• Review their Portfolio Extensively: Look beyond just a few pretty pictures. Do their Paris portraits consistently capture the kind of mood, lighting, and composition you envision for your own session? Do they shoot candidly, posed, or a mix?
• Consistent Quality: Does the quality of their work seem consistent across different sessions and lighting conditions?
• Editing Style: Some Paris photographers prefer vibrant and colorful, others moody and cinematic, and some light and airy. Ensuring their artistic vision matches yours is key to timeless Paris photos.

Communication and Language Proficiency:

• Fluency in English: This is your primary requirement for a stress-free Paris photoshoot. Ensure your Paris photographer is truly fluent and not just conversational. You need to be able to clearly articulate your vision, ask questions, and understand their directions during the shoot without any language barriers. Our principal photographers are from the US, and our Associate photographer is Irish, so English is our native language!
• Responsiveness: How quickly and clearly do they respond to your initial inquiries about a Paris photo session? Good communication from the start is a strong indicator of a professional experience. We have a dedicated office manager based in the US and she is always there to help you through the booking process and after the shoot as well!

Experience with Paris Locations and Logistics:

• Familiarity with Iconic Spots: Does your Paris photographer have extensive experience shooting at the Parisian landmarks you’re interested in (Eiffel Tower, Louvre, Montmartre, etc.)? They should know the absolute best times of day, flattering angles, and how to navigate potential challenges like crowds or shifting light. Having been established in Paris for the last 12 years, we know all the best locations along with a few truly hidden gems for unique Paris portraits!
• “Hidden Gem” Knowledge: A seasoned Paris photographer might also know less crowded, equally beautiful spots that offer a more unique and intimate Parisian feel for your session.
• Logistics Advice: Can they advise on efficient transportation between locations, optimal timing for different outfits, or the best routes to maximize your Paris photoshoot time? We are always meticulously on top of what’s happening in Paris and how it could potentially affect your photoshoot day, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.

Reviews and Reputation:

• Client Testimonials: Look for reviews on their website, Google My Business profile, social media, etc. We’re proud to share that we have almost 100 five-star reviews on Google, reflecting our commitment to client satisfaction!
• Word-of-Mouth: Ask for recommendations from travel communities or forums if possible. Our biggest source of new clients is actually from referrals, which tells us our clients trust us enough to recommend us to their friends and family. This is the biggest compliment we can receive!
