Paris Elopement: a secret just for two
AN EXCLUSIVE AND INTIMATE WEDDING EXPERIENCE
Why choose Paris for your elopement?
You’ve decided to celebrate your union in the most intimate way—just the two of you. Instead of flying to Las Vegas to say “I do” in front of an Elvis impersonator, why not choose the most romantic city in the world?
Paris is the city of love, and it’s the perfect destination for an unforgettable elopement. Trust a Paris elopement photographer to capture the magic of this once-in-a-lifetime moment.
How does a Paris elopement work?
Start by choosing a location for your ceremony. The goal is to find a quiet, romantic spot where you can exchange vows away from the crowds. Your elopement photographer in Paris will help you select the best setting to suit your vision and ensure intimacy.
Where to hold your elopement ceremony in Paris?
If you dream of saying your vows with the Eiffel Tower in the background, a ceremony by the Seine with a bridge view might be ideal.
For something even more private, book a luxury suite with a view—like at the Shangri-La Hotel, which offers one of the most stunning Eiffel Tower terraces. A more intimate option would be the Metropolitan Hotel and its iconic oval window view.
When is the best time for a Paris elopement photoshoot?
Sunrise is without doubt the best time for your elopement photoshoot in Paris. The early morning light is soft and flattering, and the city is still quiet and peaceful—just perfect for capturing heartfelt, cinematic moments.
Trust your Paris elopement photographer for guidance
Your photographer is not just there to take pictures—they are also your guide. From helping you pick the location to suggesting the ideal timeline and even putting you in touch with other trusted vendors, they’ll ensure your Paris elopement is beautifully stress-free.

Makeup session
Before the photo session, you have the option to book our professional makeup artist, who will know how to enhance your features.If the photo session is early in the morning, don’t worry—she is used to starting early and will come directly to your hotel.
Our meeting
The big moment has arrived!
I suggest we meet directly on location. Prior to the session, I will send you a detailed map along with all the information about the meeting point.
To make communication easier, we can stay in touch via WhatsApp.
Transportation
Once the photo session begins, we will easily move between the different locations you’ve chosen using our vehicle.
This compact car, ideal for getting around Paris, can accommodate 4 people or 3 people plus my lighting assistant.
If needed, you can change outfits inside the car.
Assistant
Some photos require technical and logistical support. Therefore, it is recommended to have an assistant present. They will look after your personal belongings, take care of all the details, and manage the lighting when I’m working with an off-camera flash. Their presence is almost essential for nighttime photo sessions.
Your session photo
Beyond the pleasure of posing like a star in the midst of fantastic settings, the photoshoot should remain an unforgettable moment of enjoyment. With his extensive experience, Antoine will make you feel at ease throughout this process. He will provide you with the right advice and ensure that you are always highlighted in a natural way.

The photoshoot is a moment of exchange with the photographer, behind his lens, and with a friendly and caring attitude. His advice will help you achieve photographs that truly reflect who you are.
A little coffee break?
Once the photo session is over, I suggest we celebrate with a coffee break. I’ll take this opportunity to explain the next steps.
Back at your hotel, you’ll receive a sneak peek of the photos. You can share them with your loved ones or post them on social media.
In the following days, you’ll receive a link to view all the photos and make your own selection.

- Bring something to keep warm (except in summer). Mornings can be chilly at sunrise.
