Leigh and Nick are one of those couples where you feel like you’ve known them for years! They’re always smiling, relaxed and simply in love – as they should be on their wedding day!
Leigh took the time to tell her story about their Paris elopement”
“The two of us met in grad school, and we decided to elope because it was difficult to agree on a place that our families and friends could easily travel to from different countries. Paris was the obvious choice! We had visited Paris before together several times, mostly thanks to our studies—in fact, it was the first place we travelled together—and we knew the city would be just beautiful and so romantic in the late spring. We had a wonderful elopement and honeymoon, with lots of great food and coffee, strolling through Paris’s lovely parks and wandering the streets and alleys of our favourite arrondissements.
Our elopement was a perfect day—we really lucked out with the weather, and even a predawn start for hair and makeup didn’t prove too much of a challenge with all the excitement! We spent the morning touring Paris with Brian in a vintage car, stopping along the way for our ceremony and a short champagne break.
Brian was absolutely wonderful to work with. From the beginning he patiently answered our many questions via email, and he even Skyped with us to help us decide on the locations for our photos and to share his experience, helping to ensure our wedding day would run smoothly.
On the day itself, we felt a little nervous beginning our photos, but Brian knew exactly how to guide us to help us look relaxed and confident in our pictures. He was experienced with the locations and went to great lengths to ensure our photos would be perfect (from cheerfully contending with Instagrammers to wheeling aside trash bins!). We are absolutely thrilled with the photos we received; they really capture the magic of a Paris elopement.
We would highly recommend Brian for a great photo experience in Paris!”
