Itinerary
Day 1
Morning private photoshoot session designed for couples — meeting at Trocadéro, short walk/photos at Bir-Hakeim, followed by a relaxed brunch and a stroll through Champ de Mars.
Meet your photographer — Place du Trocadéro et du 11 Novembre
Quick meet-and-greet with Max (your photographer) at the central Trocadéro fountains. Confirm poses, outfit changes, and any special requests (rings, props, surprise moments).
Tips from local experts:
- Arrive 15–20 minutes early to settle nerves, do a quick outfit adjustment and warm up with a few practice poses — fewer rushed shots, more relaxed smiles.
- Ask Max for a few candid prompts (walk-and-talk, whisper, forehead touch) to create natural, intimate moments.
- Trocadéro can be busy; meet at the large fountain / central stairs near the Métro exit for an unmistakable landmark and easy find-spot.
Private 1-hour photoshoot — Trocadéro viewpoints & Pont d'Iéna
Professional guided photoshoot focusing on iconic panoramic views of the Eiffel Tower from the Trocadéro terraces and the Pont d'Iéna area — full posing guidance and variety of close-up and wide-angle shots.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear complementary colours rather than identical outfits — solids photograph best against the skyline and avoid small busy patterns.
- For romantic shots, use movement: a slow walk, a gentle twirl, or a natural kiss on the forehead — photographer will coach timing for natural lighting.
- If you want proposal-style or surprise moments, quietly confirm the timing with Max beforehand so he can capture the reaction naturally.
Short walk & photos at Pont de Bir-Hakeim
Move to the photogenic Bir-Hakeim bridge for framed Eiffel shots (the bridge’s steel structure and river backdrop make cinematic images). Photographer will capture a mix of moody and bright frames.
Tips from local experts:
- The bridge has shaded walkways — use the columns for dramatic leading lines and candid couple interactions.
- Be mindful of cyclists and buses on the bridge; stay on the pedestrian walkway and follow your photographer’s positioning for safety.
- Ask for one silhouette shot against the river — early morning light in June yields gentle backlight without harsh shadows.
Brunch at Les Ombres — relaxed post-shoot meal with Eiffel view
Celebrate and relax — a leisurely brunch or late breakfast at Les Ombres (roof restaurant beside Musée du Quai Branly) with one of the best elevated views of the Eiffel Tower. Time to review a few sneak previews if available.
Tips from local experts:
- Reserve a window or terrace table when booking — the view adds a romantic final flourish to the morning.
- Order lighter dishes (fresh pastries, omelettes, fruit) to stay comfortable after moving around for photos; the restaurant is used to photography clients.
- Bring a printed or phone screenshot of the booking and mention you're with a photoshoot — staff often accommodate quick viewing of previews when possible.
Slow stroll through the Champ de Mars
End with a gentle walk through the Champ de Mars lawns for relaxed, natural photos and to enjoy a private moment with the Tower in the background.
Tips from local experts:
- Find a quiet patch of lawn or a bench for candid, relaxed shots — morning in June is usually cool and less crowded.
- If you want picnic-style photos, bring a simple prop (scarf, flower, small blanket) to add texture to images.
- Keep sunscreen and water handy — summer mornings can warm up quickly; shaded benches near the trees are comfortable and picture-friendly.
Wrap-up & next steps — delivery of edited gallery
Quick debrief with the photographer: confirm any favourite shots, discuss timeline for edited images (private online gallery), print options and any extra retouch requests.
Tips from local experts:
- Confirm delivery details (email, expected turnaround — typically within 48–72 hours) and preferred file format for prints or social sharing.
- If you’d like extra edited images, ask about rates now to avoid delays; photographers sometimes offer special couples packages for prints or albums.
- If you had a surprise moment during the shoot, remind Max so he can prioritise those images in the gallery.
