I <3 Paris and I make no secret about it. It is by far my most visited European city apart from Amsterdam (I have family in Holland), I’ve been there many times both for work and pleasure and I never tire of going. I’m ready to learn my French and move there;-)

Sibing and Lei are such a lovely couple, they were childhood sweethearts now living in Hong Kong. Sharing their mutual love of travel (they just got back from the Nordic!) we had many a conversation in the cabs (between locations) about places to visit and exchanged travel tips (Iceland is firmly on my list now). And whilst I was expecting that, like most couples wanting to do a shoot in Paris, they’d want photos with all the Paris landmark – they were actually not interested in the tourist sights and simply wanted relaxed photos of them enjoying the city of light.

So we did. It was a fun afternoon going around different places in Paris. Unfortunately unlike my previous shoots, the weather wasn’t on our side – the sun never came out to say hi and the rain gave us a bit of a hard time. Nevertheless, Sibing and Lei were troopers and although we had to call it a night when the rain started to pour down at the Lourve, I think we did good considering!

Well I hope you enjoy this wintry love shoot. Getting married in France (Paris or otherwise)? Hit me up!

The last picture at the Louvre reminds me of something like a bird or a plane, no no o, it is…… Lol

KimJanuary 17, 2012 - 8:46 PM

Wow! I’d say you did an amazing job despite Mother Nature’s fury of rain. Lovin’ that pop of red from the umbrella in the night time shots, as the cars whiz by.

Gorgeous! Love how this really looks like their real life and not forced.
