Photographer, Victoria Amrose says:

“We started at the most famous landmark of all, the Eiffel Tower, with some high fashion style poses on the steps at the Trocadéro Gardens. The sun made for some dramatic yet beautiful shots and the light wind added soft femininity to the look.

Then we headed over to the incredible Louvre museum for a series of photos taking in the impressive pyramid and beautiful tones & textures of the architecture. The ornate stone steps of the museum was the perfect place for some final beauty portraits in the golden hour of light as the sun slowly started to set.

We absolutely loved this shoot and hope you enjoy the imagery. Paris is such a magical place and just perfect for an intimate, micro wedding in the current climate!”

A particular highlight of the shoot was coming across a lovely & very talented Parisian busker playing the saxophone. He kindly played in the background of a selection of our shots, which was just magical! We hope you get lots of beautiful bridal inspiration from these photos.”
