Cherry Blossom season in Paris is truly magical; the small pink and white petals float on a warm breeze in the sun, and I just can’t help but have a huge smile on my face as I soak in the sunshine! This sweet family joined me for some springtime portraits and to take in all of the beauty of the season at two locations: the Jardin Des Plantes, and at Notre Dame. This little boy was all smiles, all day! He’s a bundle of energy, but mom and dad keep right up with him!

I cannot get over how dapper this family looks! Grays, blues and whites are the perfect compliment to the pink backgrounds we found at the Jardin Des Plantes, and the muted yellows of Parisian limestone.

Can you tell that Mom and Dad are used to chasing after this young man?! He’s certainly a ball of energy — he even challenged Dad to a fun race through the garden!

Ex: We are coming to Paris this spring at the end of March and it's our first time! We don't often travel so this is really big for us. I've been a Francophile since I was in my teens and have always dreamed of coming. I'd love this for my family and especially to be able to relive this special trip everyday on my walls with an art piece! My kids are 2, 5 and 9. Crossing my fingers and toes to be chosen!!
