01

From Saint-Sulpice into central Paris

The shoot begins around Fontaine Saint-Sulpice and the nearby park, using a softer neighbourhood setting before moving into the more formal architecture of central Paris.

The sequence moves from the neighbourhood setting into the more formal city views, then towards the evening photographs. Consider which of those settings matters most to you when planning a shorter session.

02

Pont Alexandre III and Bir-Hakeim

Pont Alexandre III brings ornate details, river views and a more formal Paris character. From there, Bir-Hakeim changes the visual rhythm with stronger geometry, repeated columns and classic Eiffel Tower viewpoints.

These locations give the middle of the shoot a distinct architectural progression while keeping the coverage recognisably Parisian.

Café streets and Trocadéro

The route then moves through Le Recrutement Café and the surrounding streets before reaching the lower Trocadéro area.

The café sequence adds a more relaxed street atmosphere, while Trocadéro brings Eiffel Tower photographs without relying only on the busiest upper terrace.

Champs-Élysées to the Louvre at night

A shorter Champs-Élysées sequence leads into the final part of the session as daylight disappears.

The shoot finishes at the Louvre after dark, using the illuminated pyramid and the darker city atmosphere to close the gallery with a very different mood from the afternoon photographs.
