6. Galerie Vivienne

If you need a cosy indoor place to seek shelter at, Galerie Vivienne is just the place for you! This is one of the many covered walkways in Paris and the best part is that it is unknown to many tourists, which allows you to bask in the full local Parisian atmosphere.

The glass ceiling makes it extremely suitable for photos since you will be receiving plenty of natural lighting!

Carousels always have a magical touch to them. Maybe due to their inextricable connections to our childhood, it never fails to bring a smile to our faces.

10. Palace Of Versailles

We got to know of this incredible palace after one of our couples requested to do their engagement photoshoot here since it holds a special meaning to their hearts. The sand-coloured marble walls were a spectacular work of art and the palace was surrounded by picturesque gardens and rivers. You can definitely spend the whole day here just shooting around its compounds!

11. Streets Of Paris

While we were able to cover the major landmarks, there’s still so many unnamed and unknown places around Paris that we have yet to uncover.  It is best to explore the streets of this romantic city on foot as you will stumble upon countless gems that are all beautiful in their own ways.
