Sometimes Paris Rouge is just waiting across the street posing.
I will be teaching FROM SNAPSHOTS TO PHOTOGRAPHS at Samford After Sundown beginning October 16th for 5 weeks. Join us if you are in the Birmingham Alabama area.
Kristie, and now my friends that join me there are always on the lookout for me as well! This young woman heard the "click" all the way across the street and looked up and eyed me. I took one more. I"m very brave in Paris! HA
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.
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.

If only I could pull off wearing a beret! What great style. Thank goodness for your "eye" to find these little treasures for us.
Hi V,
I want a red beret! I've noticed there are pops of red all over France that seem to grab your attention. I love it!!
