About Me

- Birmingham, AL, United States
- I am a former elementary school teacher, a full-time photographer, lover of all things French ( whose French is slowly improving), obsessive Paris traveler, enthusiastic church and community volunteer, and grandmother to 5 delightful grandchildren.
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.

Quelle élégance! The old "Place Royale" looks even better in black and white. Bon weekend, Virginia. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
Beautiful composition and B&W !
B&W makes this lovely place even more beautyful!
Makes me want to be the pigeon perched atop the this lovely fountain!
Places des Vosges has so many faces in all weather and seasons. I am not sure that I had ever noticed all the lion heads around this fountain before. Bravo!
magnifique photo of a place which has been photographes XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX times before!
Lucky pigeon, what a view he has. Excellent B&W Virginia.
What a nobel looking photo in monochrome! Love, love that architecture and its Fancy Francoise details!
tres bien!
It's perfect in black and white!
I love it in b&w too. The pigeon has a perch with a view for sure—but I'd like a view of the pigeon from one of those windows! Bon weekend, V --
Gee, Virginia, this is pretty nice. Maybe you should go to Paris from time to time to take pictures . . .
Those appartements are unmistakable.
I can't tell you how much I love that header photo! And of course, any shot of Place des Vosges. Thank you for sharing your view.
