It had rained all last week and was forecasted into the next. After monitoring the météo intently all Sunday afternoon, I finally made the call the meet Monday morning. Better to be out in a little drizzle than risk pouring rain later in the afternoon. Ironically, the rain petered out after lunch, but my little […]

She was standing, barefoot, in the Tuileries in a twirly, tea-length skirt. The sun was setting, and true to Paris, it was dreamy. I love good, flowing skirt, but what stopped my scroll was the camera in her hands. A funny-looking fellow, two lenses, held gently in her hands as she peered down into the […]

Lilla and I are old friends. We used to sit on her bedroom floor, dreaming big dreams, during the endless hot summer days. One we always shared was an escape to Paris. We called it the Paris Apartment. Beyond the fact that we’d have an apartment, I’m not sure we organised many other details. Paris […]

I so enjoyed doing this Paris portrait session at one of my favorite Eiffel Tower locations for this INCREDIBLE family I have had the pleasure of knowing in Paris. The kids were SO good despite the fact that it was FREEZING. Everyone looked lovely; outfits were on point; and yes, there was candy afterwards. What […]

If you love France or are planning a trip, download one of my FREE travel guides! Despite its many vaunted attractions and treasures, there’s nothing better than a Paris bird’s eye view. Chimney pots and Haussmannian boulevards seem to stretch endlessly and romantically into oblivion. The only question is…where are the best bird’s eye views […]

I’m so happy to share a handful of images from a styled shoot I did with Texas-based Hey Lovely Makeup, headed by the most delightful Erica! She and a few members of her team — Kendall, Gabi, and Dee — are responsible for the most…dare I say, lovely…hair, makeup, outfits, and accessories. So giddy I was […]

Black and white has some sort of quality I can’t put my finger on. Maybe it’s nostalgia, because it came before colour film. Maybe it’s simplicity, because shades of grey force you to focus on the shapes and lines; the essence of what something is. Whatever this touch may be, I love it, and I […]

I think this is one of the most sentimental and heartfelt sessions I have ever done. It was a gloriously clear fall day, with the clouds one dreams about in the summer. Warm but not balmy; sun coming in strong; shorter days tempering the harsh high noon. We met on Pont Neuf, right by the […]

Wowowowowow this was a dreamy morning in many ways. A perfect Paris portrait session, in my opinion. Rachael and Eric were a delight. The Louvre was stunning. We twirled and waltzed (practically) through my Paris — a mix of iconic sites and hidden corners — for a delicious morning together. Rachael and I are in […]

Hi Divs! This post is for you, to commemorate 16 years of friendship that has grown and gotten better with time…like wine, perhaps! Thank you for six days of fun and adventure and beautiful conversation. Thank you for coming to see my Paris; thank you for seeing me; for seeing my art; for caring it […]
