Meet Max, Your Paris Photographer

I'm Max, a French-British photographer born and raised in Paris, with more than 10 years of experience. Whether you're planning a proposal, a family trip or a couple's getaway, I guide you through your Paris photoshoot from the first pose to the final gallery, so you can simply enjoy the city. Many sessions take place at the Eiffel Tower, but we can also shoot in Montmartre, at the Louvre, in the Paris gardens, or anywhere that fits your story. I also travel for photography projects in France and abroad. New to Paris photoshoots? Read my Paris photoshoot guide. Traveling from the United States? Read my guide for American travelers.

How it works

Private photoshoots

  • Pick your session: 30 minutes to 3 hours, at one or several locations. Not sure? Tell me what you have in mind and I’ll suggest the right format.

  • I plan the spot and the timing around the light and the crowds, so we’re not fighting for space at the Eiffel Tower.

  • On the day, I guide you the whole time. You don’t need to know how to pose: most of my clients have never done a photoshoot.

  • Your private online gallery arrives within 5 working days, every photo edited by me.

Corporate events and business projects

  • Tell me about your event or project: date, venue, schedule and how you’ll use the photos.

  • I send you a clear quote, with usage rights included.

  • On the day, I work discreetly: speakers, guests, networking, the venue and the details.

  • Your edited photos arrive within 5 working days, or within 24 hours with express editing.

  • Montmartre: cobbled streets, Sacré-Cœur and a village feel.

  • The Seine and Notre-Dame: bridges, quays and bookstalls.

  • The Paris gardens: Tuileries, Luxembourg and Palais Royal.

  • Hotels, offices and event venues: from a private session in your hotel room to conferences, seminars and galas anywhere in Paris and Île-de-France.

 

How to choose a photographer in Paris

Whether you’re booking a photoshoot or an event photographer in Paris, check four things:

  • A consistent portfolio: look at full galleries, not only the three best pictures on Instagram.

  • Who edits the photos: I edit every picture myself, so your gallery looks like my portfolio.

  • Real reviews you can check: I’m rated 5.0 on Google (290+ reviews) and on Tripadvisor (400+ reviews).

  • Clear prices, delivery times and usage rights, agreed before the day.
