In 2010 a beautiful couple, which I now call good friends, asked if I would be willing to do wedding pictures for them on their Honeymoon in Paris. I didn't photograph the actual wedding day but gave them a bit of a discount and they paid for me to spend a week in paris and one of the days I took some pictures for them.
MILESTONE
It was the first of what has now been quite a few of international weddings. It also got me some really amazing shots to help my wedding photography early on in my career just 2 years after starting to do photography full time.
ABOUT THE MOORES
They are now film makers and photographers and always been willing and wonderful subjects for the camera. It was a very fun and long day full of all sorts of amazing pictures. To pull something like this off or last all day taking pictures and in a suit and wedding dress you have to be pretty dedicated and full of creativity.
They come with us off-roading pretty frequently.
Check out their website They have skills.
FIRST UP: EIFFEL TOWER
It was the first stop of the morning and the last stop of the night.
We got away from the crowds that gather right underneath and tried to get shots where the full tower would be in the shot, also we wanted less crowds in the pictures and swarming the couple.
MY FAVORITE
This was probably my favorite and most used wedding shot for many years because of it's cute candid feel and yet still had the sense that it was perhaps in another country. And i guess that's because it was all those things.
RANDOM HAPPENINGS
As we wandered around we ran into some fun people like this guy who was on his smoke break so of course we got some shots with the locals.
THE CATHEDRAL
I've photographed plenty of brides and grooms in front of beautiful buildings but rarely one so old and well known as Notre-Dame de Paris
THE FOOD
It's paris it's gotta be represented right?
Plus it was a long day we had to stop for food.
LOTS OF STOPS
Yes we got a friend of mine to come down from London to help out and drive my car around to hit a ton of spots that day. It would have never been possible without some sort of chauffer waiting in the vehicle because parking would have just been way too difficult and there would have been too much walking otherwise.
I AM STILL A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
Even though i do lots of other photography and sometimes on social media I post other stuff...
I am indeed still open for business for wedding photography.
I still am willing to travel anywhere in the world even though I do live in Utah full time again.
In fact wedding photography is still the majority of my income.
One of my favorite shoots of yours! They are amazing.

Sooooo good!! I want to say more but the right words aren't coming to me right now. They must have been overjoyed with the results - but I'm also impressed at them for being willing to go to so many places and spend all that time.

Damn these are awesome! I was wondering how you managed to hit so many locations all over the city until I read you had a volunteer chauffeur! They're not exactly close to each other :) I'm really struggling to find a favourite! They're all so good! The couple must have been so pleased, they certainly got their money's worth out of you :)

Yeah I did another wedding there years later and it was good but we only had a couple hours so it made a huge difference to have a couple that wasn't just willing but it was their idea to go to all these places. Makes a big difference when the energy level and excitement comes from them and you don't have to spend your energy keeping them excited.

I can imagine! Willing participants are always so much easier to work with. Of course even that only take you so far, the execution really still relies on the skill of the photographer which you clearly have in abundance :)
