Anahit & Hayk's Destination Wedding in PARIS!

What does a photographer do when they receive an email inquiring for engagement photos only since they are getting married in PARIS? Well by golly, they tell them they travel!. I started the destination wedding side to my business 3 years ago so when Anahit emailed me last year I was head over heels in love. Not only did she stand up in a wedding I photographed so we were already familiar with each other, but I also quickly became friends with that bride who I have now worked with on several projects since she does makeup (does Liana from The Makeup Therapist sound familiar?) It almost seemed too good to be true. And let’s not forget that Anahit AND Hayk both caught the bouquet AND garter at Liana’s wedding! Hello, perfect! Quickly, Anahit and I began emailing furiously back and forth chatting about all of the excitement about a wedding in the French countryside in a CASTLE and a day after session around the city (I SO cannot wait to share THOSE amazing day after photos — they are incredible!). Before I knew it, my first trip to Paris was here! Taking my assistant extraordinaire (my husband!) on our first European adventure together was amazing. We visited Chateaus, dined with the locals, visited the Arc de Triomphe (holy stairs!), Notre Dame, the Louvre, la tour Eiffel, cruised the Seine river, took a romantic horse and carriage ride through Champs-Elysees, and were pretty much in complete awe the entire trip. After a week of tours, our wedding weekend approached and I was THRILLED. I mean, c’mon LOOK. There’s not much more to be said about a reception at Chateau d’Esclimont!

Stay tuned for the incredible Part II, the day after session in PARIS! xoxo
