QUINCEAÑERA
PHOTO SESSIOnS
PARIS
As an American living in Paris, I adore photographing Quinceañera for wonderful families!
Paris is filled with incredible monuments, like the Eiffel Tower, museums like the Louvre, gardens and parks, and cute little neighborhoods with charming cobblestone streets. It's an incredible background for your daughter's Quinceañera. As a Parisian living in this incredible city for over a decade, I know the very best places to take you and your family for wonderful Quinceañera photographs that you'll treasure forever!
My style is candid and natural, I'll provide your daughter gentle direction and I'm welcoming, warm and fun, so she'll feel super comfortable, too!

The current rate is 999€ and includes a gorgeous Quinceañera photo session of up to 4 hours (including transportation time) in 3 iconic Paris locations, such as the Eiffel Tower, Louvre and Ile St Louis near Notre Dame Cathedral or one of the incredible Paris gardens. Includes unlimited fully edited high resolution in my signature style (around 40 per hour) and will be delivered to a private online gallery within 7 days of your Quinceañera photo session.
The price does not include a makeup artist, but I'd be happy to recommend a talented artist. Private transportation is a great idea, and is not included, however, I'll be happy to help you organize a private driver.
Each image is hand edited for light and color, and in my signature style. I do not do any further retouching such as body slimming or body alteration.
Because Paris is so popular, the earlier we can get out the better, so Quinceañera sessions start at 8:00 am, or in summer, can start just after sunrise.
It rains all the time in Paris, but rain in Paris is beautiful and adds atmosphere to the photos. All you need is a clear umbrella. Because it does rain so often, photo sessions are rain or shine. You can reschedule your Quinceañera photo session if there is time available in my schedule, but it is not guaranteed. There is a 250€ non-refundable retainer, however, if you've paid the balance and wish to cancel, the balance is refundable, but the retainer is not.
Most Quinceañera photo sessions start at the Eiffel Tower, with various views of the famous landmark. Then, you can choose to move on to the Louvre, Ile St Louis (island that is charming and where the Notre Dame Cathedral is located), or you can select one of the beautiful Paris gardens such as Luxembourg Gardens or Tuileries Gardens. Those who love color may also like the Montmartre neighborhood. I will offer suggestions based on your wishes.
Quinceañera sessions are for one (1) girl, and cannot be shared with another person. If another person wishes to join (a friend, for example), each individual would be billed separately and the time will be shared. If you'd like to have a few family photos, that is possible.
No worries! Most of my clients are camera shy and feel awkward, this is normal. I gently guide your daughter with natural and candid poses that will put her at ease. I'm also very friendly, warm and welcoming and this also will help put your daughter at ease.
Your images will be uploaded to a private online gallery within 7 days of your session. All images are fully edited in my signature style, and there will be at least 100 images. Choose your favorites and download them, they are high resolution and can be printed for your home, or in an album. You have personal print right to your images.
If you'd like to book your Quinceañera photo session, just contact me and I'll send you a booking link. You'll reserve your date and time, and be requested to pay a 250€ non-refundable retainer for your date. The balance will be due 30 days before your session. After you pay the retainer, I'll send you directions to our meeting spot and many vendor resources, such as a makeup artist, flowers, balloons and more.
