Couple Portraits in the most famous places of Paris - a day of photography in the city of love

A weekend to make couple portraits in all the most popular place of Paris

My very good friend was on the point to get married, and he thought about making nice portraits of him and his fiancée (now his wife!) to print in A2 format and dress during the celebration dinner. I therefore took the TGV to Paris France and we spent a very nice weekend making portrait photography accross Paris and its most famous monuments: Eiffel Tower, Les Invalides, Montparnasse, Notre Dame, Jardin du Luxembourg, … Thanks to the model who were very photogenics!

Hope you enjoy these couple portraits in Paris! All shots were done with Canon EOS 5D MKII, Canon 16-35mm f2.8 L II USM and Canon 24-70mm f2.8 L USM. I’ve also used flash Canon Speedlite 580 EXII, which gives very natural render especially in those conditions. I’ve also made a few black and white edits to give some more depth to it.

Phuket Island Tour up to Patong, Thailand

The Puhket Island, Southern Thailand Beauty

We rent a car and made a full tour of the Phuket Island in Thailand, passing from North to the city of Phuket, then touring to the Southern point of the island (Cap Promthep) and then coming back to the hotel Renaissance via Kata Noi, Kata Yai, Karon and Patong Beach. The island is nice, and the beach are very diverse: crowded on the south west, empty and beautiful on the north! We had good time all over the island, but must admit staying at the Renaissance Hotel was such a nice place that we didn’t have much time going anywhere else during the week there! Patong is a very interesting place to see, not necessarily to stay! Enjoy the tour!

 

Panviman Chiang Mai Spa Resort, Thailand 5 stars hotel - 45 photos with Canon 5D MKII

Panviman Chiang Mai Spa Resort - A beautiful 5 stars hotel in North of Thailand

The Panviman Chiang Mai Spa Resort is lovely, and will definitely not let you undifferent. Located few kilometers away from Chiang Mai, it’s a place to get fantastic rest. You can also enjoy the magnificient spa facilities, and touring the hotel resort will already be a nice 1-2h adventure as it’s really big! The hotel is located very close from the Masea Elephant School, and has lots of activities you can enjoy such as cooking class or spa massage.

The staff was exceptionally great, and we’ve even been invited to their year end party, which was really a fantastic moment for us: we had really good time, and we danced with them and enjoyed a few hot drinks all together! Probably one of the best moment from our 2 weeks trip in Thailand! Thanks for all! 

The place is also really nice for making beautiful portraits, thanks to the view and the nice epic swimming pool. Enjoy the view!

The Chedi in Chiang Mai - beautiful 5 stars hotel in North of Thailand

My wife had a business meeting in The Chedi Chiang Mai, so I followed her and make a few photos while she was discussing business! Very nice place, it’s truly Asian and European at the same time. Probably a really nice place to stay over in Chiang Mai if you want to pamper yourself!

Chiang Mai - The Thai city of 300 temples (wat)

Chiang Mai is the second largest city in Thailand, located in the North of the country. It’s defnitely not as big as Bangkok, and it carries a lot of temples (wat), which goes from the oldest to the most modern. The city is said to have over 300 temples, and one of the finest cooking thai food! The city is easily reachable by plane or train, and you can also have a visit of the famous Doi Suthep temple in the mountains, or a walk on a elephant to the long neck girls village.
