Proposal photographer in Paris
You plan the question, I hide in the crowd and catch the yes. Discreet proposal photos at Bir-Hakeim, by the Eiffel Tower, at the Palais-Royal or along the Seine, delivered within 24 hours.
Rated 5.0 by 12 clients on Airbnb






Before the big day we choose the spot and the timing together, in French, English or Arabic. You'll know exactly where I'll be standing, and your partner won't suspect a thing: to them I'm just another tourist with a camera.
When the knee drops, I photograph the whole moment: the surprise, the tears, the ring, the hug. Then we take a few relaxed portraits of the two of you, with Paris right behind you.
Want the full fairytale? I can also set up the decoration for you: lights, candles, flowers, a carpet, or the big "MARRY ME" letters.

Questions people ask
Where are the best places to propose in Paris?
My favourite is the Bir-Hakeim bridge, with the Allée des Cygnes just below it. Avenue de Camoëns, Square du Vert-Galant and the Palais-Royal are lovely too. I avoid Trocadéro: it is far too crowded for such a personal moment. Read my full guide on the blog.
How will my partner not notice you?
We agree on the exact spot and a signal beforehand. I arrive early, blend in with the other visitors and start shooting from a distance, then come closer once the yes is said.
What if it rains?
We watch the forecast together. We can move the time, or pick a covered spot such as the Louvre arcades.
When do we get the photos?
Within 24 hours, in a private online gallery you can download and share with family and friends.
