Jess And Matt ~ Paris Anniversary/Engagement Shoot

Jess and Matt came to Paris from the UK to celebrate their anniversary.  They are not yet married, but they have been together for 8 years.  During their anniversary shoot they asked if I could recommend a romantic restaurant for dinner that night.  I suggested Sorza, an intimate and très chic restaurant on the Ile Saint Louis.  They took my suggestion and after dinner Matt proposed to Jess and she said yes.  Their anniversary shoot turned into an engagement shoot!

Michelle And Leaf ~ Los Angeles Family Photography

These photos were taken over several years, starting with Michelle’s pregnancy.  This beautiful mother and son just booked a photo shoot during my upcoming trip to Los Angeles this spring.  I have not photographed them since I moved to France and I’m  feeling a little nostalgic.  So, I decided to do a little tribute to the two of them.  All of these photographs were shot with black & white film, custom printed and then the prints were sepia toned.  These are scans of the prints.  The first photo of Michelle is a scan of a gelatin silver photograph that I hand painted.

 

This next photo is a scan of a hand painted gelatin silver photograph.
