A Colourful Photoshoot in Montmartre, Paris

Beautiful cobblestoned streets and stunning stairways right next to the Sacré-Cœur.

I hopped on the Eurostar from London to meet Zoe for a fun photoshoot one rainy morning in Paris. She is the embodiment of sunshine so the juxtaposition was beautiful.

We met below the Sacré-Cœur and made our way down some hidden steps into a small plaza with colourful secluded cafes - taking photos as we went. One of my favourite things about shooting anywhere in Paris is how easy it is to find beautiful spots and get inspired.

Zoe wanted the photos to feel fun, uplifting and colourful and for her to appear as her authentic self. I made sure to get to know her bubbly personality and vibe before we started (and in the lead-up before we even met) so i knew how to make sure we captured her vision. The moodboard was very lose and basically a collection of happy, smiley humans in various city streets - challenge accepted!

Thank you Zoe for trusting me to capture you and for being such a joy (both to capture and meet). Oh and thank you for the pastries, they were as good as you said!
