Private Paris Walking Tour with a Personal Photographer

We were very lucky to get Michel as our photographer. By the time we met he already had a plan in mind of what places to visit during the photoshoot. He was excellent at finding the best poses, and he injected a lot of fun to the entire session. If you are thinking about doing this make sure to ask for Michel as your Photographer. Very much worth the price of the service.

My family of four was very much looking forward to capturing some unique moments in Paris. We were left feeling a bit disappointed. We met our photographer outside of the Comédie-Française at 3:00pm. We walked to the area around the Jardin du Palais Royal. We began with some shots at a generic looking column. Then we walked to a row of trees. Next was a fountain. Then we stood in front of some shrubs. I began to wonder when we would be photographed with some of the iconic landmarks in Paris. I asked our photographer about the Eiffel Tower. He seemed a little surprised that I wanted photographs with that particular landmark. We walked to the Louvre where we were posed in front of the pyramid. I thought I was finally going to get some of those "Paris landmark" shots. I had to outright ask for the Eiffel Tower. I showed the photographer some screenshots I had of Pinterest ideas for Eiffel Tower pictures, so he had a clear understanding of what I wanted. Our photographer said we would have to take an Uber in order to get what I was asking for. I allowed the photographer to order the Uber on my phone. This was a mistake. He ordered an Uber for four people. When the Uber arrived, the photographer sat up front, and my entire family of four adults sat like clowns in the back of a Volkswagen CC. We arrived at a decent location for the shots I had envisioned. The photographer snapped a few shots, then marched us around to the Trocadéro Gardens for some shots with the tower in the far background. He finished snapping, and he asked me to I write down my email address in his notebook. Then he said, "Do you have a tip for me?" Of course, I had prepared for this because the booking information had said that gratuity was not included. I tipped him 35 Euros. As he strode away, I looked at my watch. It was 4:35pm. The booking was for two hours, so I was cheated out of 25 minutes of my time, never mind the 20 minutes spent in the Uber. When I received my photographs via email, I wanted to cry. I only received 129 photos despite being promised 130-150 photos. Many photos were blurry and poorly composed. To add insult to injury, the photographer wrote in his email, " I propose 90 Euros for 40 pics (once in Black and white and once in color so you will have 80 pictures touched up + the others one I already touched up)" So, he wants even more money to touch up photos that I could have taken with my phone. Buyer beware!

My husband and I were on our honeymoon and decided to book this photography tour as a way to capture the trip without resorting to selfies. Jimmy was professional and had many great ideas for photos. It was a highlight of our trip and the photos turned out amazing.

Anyone can take selfies in front of iconic Paris landmarks, but if you'd like some great pictures that you know will turn out great, do this instead. The pictures of our family came out great!

My family (2 adults, 2 kids 7,10) recently did this tour with David while in Paris on a summer holiday. We had a blast! David was a real pro---he took us to cool spots, he took ALOT of pics, and he managed to keep two kids under 10 engaged and having fun along the way. The quality of the pics is very good and we had a great time. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to have fun for a couple hours while capturing great memories in a truly world class city!

Incredible quality of photos. David was fun & accommodating with getting us photos at louvre, royal palais, metro , carousel & river shots. It was a lot in 2 hrs. We paid to take taxi to Eiffel tower & cost $8 So totally worth it for the photos. Some poses are quirky but end product made it obvious this wasn't David's 1st rodeo. I'm not in many photos on our trips so this was ideal for the entire family. He captured lighting perfectly. We did the 9am tour so not too hot. Ask and you shall receive...but you have to ask. Totally worth it as a once in a lifetime opportunity

We came to Paris to celebrate our 50th anniversary, and our kids gave us this tour as a gift. We were fortunate enough to get David Law as our guide and photographer. He showed us some places on the right bank that we hadn't visited before, as well as bringing us to some of our favorite spots. He is very personable and has a wonderful sense of humor, and we really enjoyed the time we spent with him. The pictures he has sent us so far are great, and we can't wait to see the rest. Thanks, David, for a fun photo shoot. Highly recommended!

David Law has been our photographer /guide and he has done a brilliant job of capturing some beautiful couple pictures as well as family pictures during our 2 hour session. He is energetic, fun, knowledgeable, accommodating, and professional. He has a great eye for the camera and has walked us through some breathtakingly beautiful alleys and gardens in and around the Louvre museum and Eiffel Tower areas. He made us all comfortable to face the camera and engaged our active 7yr old through out the session to bring out the best of us for some candid shots. His use of nature elements like sunlight, and wind to take some artsy pictures of our family attests his experience, craftsmanship, and passion for this profession. The 2 hour session was a breeze and we didn’t realize how quick and fluid the 2 hour session went with David capturing some 175+ pictures of our family. We have a life time of memories to take home with us. I highly recommend David to anyone and everyone looking for a photoshoot in Paris.

Michael was the photographer who assign to us, he shown his professional skill during the session, we are very enjoy the session with him.

Our photographer Anne did a great job! We were a group of 6 and she was able to get amazing couple shots and group shots at some garden spaces as well as by the Eiffel Tower. In total we received over 200 photos and we were very happy with them all. I highly recommend Anne as a photographer and if you would like to have some photos to commemorate your trip to Paris.
