What Our Clients Say
Areg & Monica
I booked a proposal shoot with Juliana. She was fabulous! Great communication and helped me plan the ideal Hallmark-style proposal by the Eiffel Tower. The professionalism in preplanning really impressed me and helped me feel like everything was accounted for. We had some weather issues the day of the shoot and Juliana with her excellent artistry and knowledge of the city turned a drizzly Paris morning into beautiful collage that showcased our romance on film. We are forever grateful for her patience, guidance, and artistic abilities. A Million out of 10 would recommend! Merci beaucoup, Juliana!

My husband and I had never done a professional maternity shoot and had no idea what to expect. But as soon as we met our Paris photographer, Cengiz, at Café Carette, we felt totally at ease. He made the experience an absolute pleasure, and the photos are just stunning! If he’s available, don’t even think twice!

Vincent was truly amazing. He went above and beyond for us. He is very personable and knowledgeable about his field. He made us feel comfortable the entire time and he went out of his way to capture the best pictures of us. Vincent made this the best experience ever. I’ll definitely recommend him to all my friends and family.

Scander has such wonderful energy—even my boyfriend, who usually doesn’t enjoy having pictures taken, had the best time!
Cherise
Planning my marriage proposal from Arizona (and not speaking French) was daunting until I found Kiss Me in Paris Photography. My artist, Cengiz, was an absolute lifesaver, with amazing insider knowledge and priceless tips. He made the entire process stress-free, and the pics are just incredible—we love them all! For the best Paris engagement photographer, Cengiz is a no-brainer!

I booked Juliana Aguiar for a 2hr photoshoot proposal and I could not imagine having such an incredible experience without her help! She created and sent me a PDF that prepared me for all aspects of the proposal and photoshoot. Juliana was incredibly kind and responsive and the pictures came out stunning! She guided us through poses and made us feel very comfortable throughout the entire photoshoot. We also appreciated that she consistently checked in to make sure it was everything we wanted and included any poses we requested! We are having so much trouble picking our favorites from the 600+ beautiful photos.

Cengiz is a world‑class photographer. Even at 1 °C, he put us at ease and delivered beautiful photographs. His expertise from start to finish is exceptional and deserves special mention. He moved through the session with humility and friendliness, and now I understand why everyone chooses him as their point person. I’ll be tempted to hire him again for our pre‑wedding shoot—that’s how much I trust him. The pre‑edited photos blew me away—instant classics. You are extraordinary. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

FAQ
Welcome to our FAQ. Everything you need to know about booking, locations, photographers, and photo delivery. Questions? Drop us a line—we’re glad to help.
How much does a Paris photography session cost?
Our photoshoots start at €250 per hour, with pricing varying based on your chosen photographer.
Paris boudoir photography and surprise proposal sessions are priced higher due to their specialized requirements. Proposals require extensive preparation and early arrival. Boudoir sessions require enhanced editing and confidentiality agreements, which increase our legal risk.

We’re proudly LGBTQ+ inclusive and welcome all couples. We provide options for privacy agreements, female photographers, and full-service packages with transport, beauty services, and video coordination.
How far in advance should I book my Paris photoshoot?
The earlier you reserve, the better your chance to lock in your preferred timeslot and photographer, especially during peak seasons (April to mid-October, December 20–January 1, and Valentine’s Day).
We’re incredibly responsive and can accommodate most short-notice requests, often even same-day bookings, since our studio is just minutes by foot from the Eiffel Tower and Trocadéro. For last-minute or same-day requests, call us directly for the fastest confirmation.
Do your photographers speak English?
How does your team work, and how do you find the right photographer for me?
Choosing the right photographer goes beyond portfolios—it’s about personal connection. Our Paris team includes local experts with distinct approaches and personalities.
— Family Photography Specialists excel with young children, balancing patience and gentle authority to bring out the best in large groups during your Paris family session.
— Photojournalistic Artists understand when to step back and let interactions flow naturally, capturing emotional reactions as they happen—ideal for surprise proposals, elopement ceremonies, and weddings.
— Posing Specialists guide you through flattering, detail-oriented sessions for couple photos, solo portraits, or boudoir photography. They’ll handle wardrobe adjustments, hair placement, and arm positioning while encouraging natural chemistry between couples and confident camera presence for individual portraits.
You can request a male or female photographer (many clients specifically prefer women for cultural or personal reasons), or let us match you based on shoot type, budget, and availability.
Two ways to find your match:
1. Let us help. Share your preferences, budget, and dates—we’ll recommend the ideal photographer for you.
2. Browse our artists. Review individual portfolios, bios, and client testimonials, then request a booking link for your chosen photographer.
Once booked, your Paris photographer will guide your preparation through WhatsApp, emails, or Pinterest mood boards. Our goal is to ensure you feel confident and excited before stepping off the plane in Paris.
What are the best photo locations in Paris?
Our photographers know Paris’s landmark spots and corners that only locals find. We schedule shoots for ideal lighting, manage crowds, and transition you smoothly from one setting to the next.
Eiffel Tower Photoshoots: Trocadéro delivers a majestic panorama—arrive at sunrise for golden light kissing the tower’s latticed curves. Avenue de Camoens offers a stress‑free, residential feel with Instagram‑ready Tower vistas.
On Bir‑Hakeim Bridge, you’ll capture those cinematic angles you’ve seen in countless films, while Pont Alexandre III provides a more subtle viewpoint, with ornate lampposts and dazzling river reflections.
Architectural Beauty: The Louvre presents a study in contrasts, with centuries-old royal facades rising from medieval foundations now framing I.M. Pei’s bold glass pyramids and dancing fountains (when they’re running).
Just steps away, Palais Royal ranks among our most cinematic favorites. Buren’s striped columns form geometric poetry against 18th‑century arcades and tranquil gardens.
Romantic Settings: As dusk settles on Pont Alexandre III, its Belle Époque lamps cast warm pools of light onto the bridge. For the Grand Palais, step across the river to capture its soaring glass dome in full splendor.
At sunrise, Petit Palais’s gilded gates glow in the early light—ideal for a quick portrait before your Uber arrives. In Luxembourg Gardens, choose from the Medici Fountain, tree‑lined promenades, or the stately palace backdrop.
Finally, Montmartre leads you through winding, cobblestone streets past colorful café fronts around Place du Tertre and postcard-worthy spots like La Maison Rose.
See our complete Paris Photography Location Guide for detailed timing and over 15 additional photo spots.
How many photos are included, and when will I receive them?
Each package includes professionally edited, high-resolution photos:
— 30-minute session: 10 images
— 1-hour session: 20 images
— 2-hour session: 45 images
— 3-hour session: 70 images
— 4-hour session: 100 images
You’ll see all unedited photos in your private gallery within 24 hours. Final edited high-resolution images arrive within 14 days. Want more? Add extra edited photos for €5 each, or get all unedited shots for €100/hour (capped at €300).
What happens if it rains during our photoshoot?
Over 50% of predicted rain in Paris never arrives, and a drizzle or overcast skies often improve lighting while reducing crowds. Soft light from cloud cover flatters skin tones and avoids harsh shadows or squinting.
For heavier rain, we suggest covered spots such as historic esplanades, cafés, and the Pont de Bir-Hakeim. When rescheduling is necessary, we’ll work hard with you to find a new time, though weather-related cancellations aren’t refundable.
Can you accommodate special privacy requests?
Yes. We offer legally binding NDAs, women-only editing and production teams, and secure image storage with multiple backups.
Privacy is built into our process for boudoir, high-profile, and culturally sensitive sessions. We never share photos from NDA shoots, boudoir work, or images featuring children without written permission.
