Discover the story01 — A real Eiffel Tower proposal
This couple travelled from Japan with a clear plan: begin the morning at Trocadéro, preserve the surprise and photograph the exact moment of the proposal with the Eiffel Tower behind them.
After the ring reveal, the session continued as a relaxed engagement story through Pont Alexandre III, the Petit Palais, the Tuileries and the Louvre. Each location brought a different architectural rhythm without changing the emotional focus of the photographs.

03 — How the proposal story was planned
The exact position, approach direction and timing were agreed in advance so the surprise could remain natural while the background and light stayed controlled.
Trocadéro, Pont Alexandre III, the Tuileries and Louvre were sequenced to reduce unnecessary travel and create distinct visual chapters.
Once the proposal was complete, the session shifted toward guided portraits, movement, ring details and spontaneous reactions.
04 — Client reviews

We had our proposal photos taken with Jeremy. He did an amazing job and was a pleasure to work with! He was very responsive to emails and came up with great ideas and a plan for the proposal. When meeting him, he was extremely nice, professional, and talented. We received our photos fast and were very pleased! I would go with him again if I could do it all over again.

I came across Jeremy's work via Instagram, while I was searching to find a fine arts/light and airy photographer for my recent trip to Paris. I absolutely fell in love with Jeremy's work the moment I stumbled on his profile. Particularly, there was a couple's photo in front of the magnificent entrance of the Petit Palace that I just simply adored. With only weeks at hand prior to my visit, I contacted Jeremy. The two of us hashed out the logistics and payment relatively quickly thanks to Jeremy being so prompt with his responses. Jeremy and I had great communication leading up to the session, during the session, and of course after the session, up to the delivery of the photos. I had no idea how insane Paris traffic would be, and Jeremy was very understanding. I believe I was almost ten minutes behind schedule. What I appreciated most about Jeremy was that he had a natural eye finding beauty, for posing. I have done a lot of photo sessions over the years, and I have noticed that not every photographer has mastered posing. Jeremy is exceptional, and I believe one of his strength as a photographer is that he is able to pose his clients in positions that compliment them best.
