Place des Vosges
I guess at some point couples go from gazing into each other's eyes, to gazing into their iPhone. I'd like to think that's not always the case. I'm a hopeless romantic!!

Paris je t'aime
I fell in love with Paris in March 2007. It was as the French say, le coup de foudre : love at first sight. As a result of that trip, my photography took another direction. Since that time I have pursued a career of sorts in photography and dreamed of returning to the City of Light. November 2008 found me strolling the streets of Paris once again. My first visit I was so overwhelmed with the incredible beauty of the city, I photographed it as a "tourist". In 2008 I returned and I looked at the city with more of a photographer's eye. I wanted to capture the unique, the small details, and oh yes - the people! This blog was started as a photo diary of that trip, but I have been most fortunate to return to the city j'adore 15 times since. Each time I leave, I wipe a tear and start planning my list for the next trip. Paris may well be a moveable feast, but I think it's best savored in person! Someone told me that once you have been to Paris, you will leave a piece of your heart. I left mine right there, but I brought home some wonderful memories. It is my pleasure to share them with you.

Nice shot. I hope this is not the case as I'm a hopeless romantic too...
Yes, such a wonderful capture! Hopefully it was just a quick peek at the iPhone before resuming their own eye-gazing.
Nice shots! aww , they're soo sweet !
Great photo, I know which couple me and my hubby are .. !
Brilliant shot Virg...I'm in awe of your talent. Was I with you that day...hmmmm?
Mary,
No this was taken late one day after I'd eaten at Ma Bourgogne. One of those sleeper shots that I thought would go in the trash!
Hi Virginia!
Thanks so much for your kind words on my blog.
I am quite thrilled to discover yours as well. We share a similar point of view regarding Paris, and we're certainly caught the "bug."
Look forward to checking in on your blog regularly!
My husband just popped your photos in the mail. Hope you like them!

Maybe I shouldn't have given my wife an iPhone ???
I'm not sure she'd be willing to give it up now...
Is there any hope for romance still ? Even with an iPhone owner ? Are we doomed ???
:-)
Owen,
I'm laughing so hard. I know there's still hope for you and your wife, although there's no hope pour moi I fear.
V
Gosh I hope they are looking at their phone so they can find a place to sneak off for an afternoon delight
Owen...ever since my husband got his iPhone he hasn't put it down!!!
Great juxtaposition!
