Paris Private Walking Tour with a Personal Photographer

MariaRose_B, Jan 2023

Very enjoyable and different experience. Photos were better than if just used our phone camera. Sammy, our photographer was very pleasant and was on time considering it was Christmas day.

Amazing!

Tania, Jan 2023

Absolutely loved this tour! David was great! He knew all the best photography spots and really outdid himself! It was a great introduction to Paris and I have some great pictures and memories now! David was also quite prompt in sending me the pictures. Highly recommend this tour!

Absolutely incredible experience with David!

Elissa_C, Dec 2022

David was absolutely incredible!!! We read many, many reviews before choosing this private session, and David was repeatedly reviewed as being an amazing photographer in every review. So when David was assigned to us, we were thrilled! David was, in fact, a ROCKSTAR. He was friendly and professional -he knew the perfect places for us to take gorgeous pictures. He advised us how to pose and he placed us in the best lighting, and at the right angles. He moved fast enough enough so that we could maximize our time and get pictures in many different locations. But he did not rush. The entire experience was absolutely perfect. We received the photos from david (including his favorite photos retouched) within an hour or two after the shoot. The photos are better than we could have ever imagined-They are fantastic! We have a mixture of romantic pictures, funny/cute pictures, original poses, and classic portraits. The photos are truly priceless and we will cherish them forever. David was really a dream come true photographer. If you have David take your pictures, you will be elated-both with the experience, and with the final photos. David -We can’t thank you enough!!!!!.

Michel Planson is incredible 👌

Kylie_P, Oct 2022

Michel Planson was phenomenal! He went above and beyond, always keeping me entertained and making sure I was okay, looked for any photo opportunities, was very accommodating, let me add ET photos so long as we got transportation, gave recommendations for places in Paris, tips on when to go, etc. 110/10 ✨

Excellent tour!

Lori_D, Oct 2022

Sam was fantastic! He captured all of our memories perfectly. He took us too several beautiful spots and helped pose us to capture our Paris experience.

Great moments

Photo shoot in Paris

Darla_H, Sep 2022

David is excellent photographer and fun and engaging. Drawback— the trip title “Walking Tour” misleading ( and why we signed up for). We had lots of fun and shot photos in great areas around Louvre and on Seine. Have great memories. But if you are looking for a tour, this is mostly a (very fun) photo shoot.

Great Experience

kbfr434880, Sep 2022

We met photographer, Michel. He made my hubby very comfortable, which he was not initially. We strolled through various areas in Paris while taking pics. Overall great experience.

Great tour and fantastic pictures

Meghan_F, Aug 2022

This tour was a highlight of our trip to Paris. David was amazing and extremely patient. We are not a family who know how to pose for pictures and David took the time to help us create family pictures we will have forever. Honestly, he should probably charge more for the tour based on the quality and quantity of pictures alone. We would recommend this tour to anyone who wants professional photos in front of Parisian landmarks, and a funny and patient photographer.

Michel Planson is GREAT! -From Lea and Evan

LeaSilverstein, Aug 2022

Michel took us to the Royal Palace Gardens, the Louvre, and the Eiffel Tower. He knew exactly what poses to direct us to, and even made sure a lot of people were not in the background of our photos even though it was 4:30 in the afternoon. He was very prompt in getting our pictures back to us, giving us around 200 to work with. I definitely recommend this experience as we have gotten so many compliments on our photos so far!

Great Experience

Sheena_G, Aug 2022

100% recommended!!

Anne_F, Jul 2022

David was amazing!! We could not be happier with the pictures. He was also incredibly accommodating when we had a travel challenge and needed to reschedule. I did this as a surprise for my teenaged niece and she absolutely adored it! Definitely recommend this experience with David!

Best photoshoot

Very personable and fun!!! Thanks so much! I would book again in a heartbeat. This was such a great way to capture us in the city.

Best experience ever!

Terri_S, Mar 2022

I can not say enough great things about this experience. It was absolutley one of our favorite things we got to do while in Paris. I cant say enough about Michel. We will do this again. Thanks for making our 30 year anniversary memorable Michel.

Fantastic Photographer with a Great Knowledge of Paris!

Katherine_R, Mar 2022

Fantastic photographer with great knowledge of Paris! I’ve never hired a photographer online like this, but it was a fantastic experience that I highly recommend. He knew hidden spots that made for great shots we would not have found on our own. He planned it so that we ended up in front of Notre Dame at sunset, which was beautiful! He got great shots of our 11 and 13 year olds, which can be a challenge. Sometimes he would suggest something that might seem cheesy, but came out great on film. We have gotten so many compliments on the pictures. We had our pictures the next day via digital transfer. I’ve never had any photographer send shots that quickly. Great experience!

Paris Pics

Clifford_M, Jun 2021

We had an awesome tour with Ari. He was professional and changed the visit sites to meet our needs. We wanted pics at the Eifel tower. We received the link a couple of days after the tour and tons of beautiful pictures. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Paris. He also was very informative on Parisian history The pictures are priceless and it was a great way to celebrate our 28th anniversary. I just hate We didn't have much cash on us because he deserved a bigger tip. He was Wonderful! Clifford & Kimberlyn Maynor
