Plus de Paris...


Since returning from Paris, I feel like I've been seeing it pop up everywhere on the blogosphere (I'm sure it's because I was there, and not because of Fashion Week or anything :-).

Some Parisian scenes and inspirations for your weekend -

Love the song in this video.

Petites pieces of Paris, without having to fly. 

Stunning long exposure shots of Paris by night.

The one and only Garance Dore, bien sur.

Also, behind the scenes of Fashion Week photographers...

and finally, what we think fashion week looks like vs. what it actually looks like.

MA + RFA


The Saturday in Paris began as a cloudy day threatening to shed some rain but as the afternoon drew closer, the skies proved guileless for Marie-Adelaide & Rafael's mid-September wedding. The ceremony was held at the stunning L'eglise Saint Germain des Pres and afterward, we all put on our party hats to fete the grinning newlyweds at La Maison de l'Amerique Latine.

Though I wasn't the official photographer, I sure snapped away like one. From the pre-wedding dressing through the wee hours of the next morning, not once was there a lack of beautiful moments, details and people to capture. Here are a few photos...

Cheers to a lifetime of happiness together, Ade and Rafael!

We Had Paris


Amazing, amazing, amazing. That pretty much sums up my week in Paris for the wedding of Pem's sister Marie-Adelaide and her new husband, Rafael. The weather, the people, and of course, the city of lights itself - it could not have been more perfect. Nor soon forgettable - I got completely snap-happy and took nearly 1200 photos!

We stayed with Pem's family in an apartment on L'ile de la Cite, practically in the shadow of Notre-Dame. It was a great location to explore the St. Germain-des-Pres area and the rest of the Left Bank. Most of our excursions outside the apartment were part of my mission to buy shoes for the wedding. Though the mission itself failed, we got to see quite a lot of the city over so few days.

Our trip in short - we had wine. We had crepes. We had friends and family. We had love. And we had Paris.

Some pictures from our excursions below. More photos of the wedding festivities to follow in the coming days...

*p.s. - Two books I love that will take you to Paris without having to fly! Both now, and then: Essayist Adam Gopnik's Paris to the Moon on raising a toddler while fulfilling his childhood dream of living in Paris and always, Ernest Hemingway's A Moveable Feast.
