capturing your shine & light in the city of light, and having fun doing it!
Hello & Bonjour! I'm Karina, an American, English speaking professional photographer in Paris. I bring careful attention to detail, high energy, and a positive spirit to my work, combined with my passion for Paris.
I'll show you the best of Paris and create lasting souvenirs for you from your incredible time in the City of Light!
There's no more perfect place to capture your memories than in Paris! Whether you're here on vacation or business by yourself, or traveling with others, take time out of your day to create incredible portraits you'll cherish forever!
I'm Karina, an English speaking American photographer in Paris, incredibly inspired by lovely ladies like you! I'll gently guide you in my natural and relaxed style (nothing stiff, posed and boring!), and we'll have a lot of fun, too, as we capture your incredible Paris memories. Your portraits are perfect for personal use, to remember this amazing time in your life, or branding for your business.
Choose your ideal locations, all highlighting a romantic, unforgettable corner of Paris. Most incorporate the Eiffel Tower, but that's not all Paris has to offer--beautiful architecture, quaint village feel--choose what appeals to you most! If you aren't quite sure, no worries, just reach out to me, I'll be glad to help you decide!

No, but I'd be happy to recommend a makeup artist to you!
As Paris is a very busy city with lots of tourists, it's best to start as soon as possible in the morning, so most portrait sessions start at 8:00 am.
It rains a lot in Paris, and it's often not possible to reschedule due to schedules. If it's possible we can try to reschedule, but a better idea is to incorporate the rain in our portraits using a clear umbrella, it's so cute! There are also a few covered options, but not many. Don't fear the rain in Paris, it's often so very pretty and there are fewer people out and about when it rains.
Yes, one outfit change is included in your portrait session. You'd need to go to a café to change, and also buy a coffee as there are few public places to change outfits.
Yes, your portrait session will last around 2 hours and that includes the outfit change.
We'll take a taxi, please bring cash or a credit card for the taxi.
No problem, I completely understand! I'll do my absolute best to make you feel comfortable, give you gentle guidance, and we'll have fun too!
For our creative process, it's best that it's just you, however, if you have a friend or significant other that wants to join, that is possible, but only you will be photographed.
