One of the most romantic things to do on a honeymoon in Paris is a couples photoshoot at the Eiffel Tower: it is a morning together in the prettiest part of the city, and a souvenir you keep for the rest of your lives. As a Paris photographer, I photographed Whitney and Matt around the Eiffel Tower, Trocadéro and the Seine, and this is what it looks like when everything comes together.

Whitney and Matt’s Photoshoot at the Eiffel Tower

When many different pieces of a perfect photo session come together, THIS is what it looks like.

Whitney and Matt were an absolute pleasure to work with because of their effortless banter- both very interesting and interested in many different things, it was like hanging out with cool, eclectic friends that just happened to be gorgeously styled and in front of the Eiffel Tower.

Where We Photographed: The Eiffel Tower, the Seine and Trocadéro

  • The streets and gardens at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, for cobblestones, trees and flowers.
  • The banks of the Seine, for a quiet moment by the water.
  • Trocadéro, for the full view of the tower, the steps and the golden columns.

These spots are all within walking distance of each other. Read 3 gorgeous locations for a photo session around the Eiffel Tower, our Trocadéro sunrise guide and the best Eiffel Tower photo locations.
