About Me
- Virginia
- 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.

Hi V ... great photo. The black and white combined with the architecture gives it quite the feel of vintage Paris. Not that I was around in vintage Paris .. hehe. J.
This picture really captures things I love about France. Why doesn't coffee with friends in the United States feel like this?
This friend would be sipping the divine chocolat chaud that is served at Comme à la Maison. Definitely the best, richest, smoothest, thickest I ever tasted wish I had some on this chilly morning!
Is it just my computer or don't you have music any more? I loved that.
I keep forgetting to try and fix the music. Thanks for the reminder. I'll see what I can do!
V
Mixpod has closed so we are without music for a while. Maybe I'll find another one soon.

I'm with Marie. Je vais prendre un chocolat chaud, svp! It looks like there is room for all of us in your great terrace shot.
Lovely shot! I love the way the lady is holding her cigarette away from her friends. :)
Gorgeous scene Virginia, I love your b&w. It looks like a photo of the 30s, only the clothes are different...
I know this place and always have a hard time with the spindly chairs on the cobblestones. That said, I still would love to be here right now, enjoying a cup of something with you, V!
Take out the girl with the short skirt and this could have been shot in the 40's. Beautiful shot V!
Saint Paul de Vence un village que je connais bien et que j'affectionne... Une partie de mes peintures sont exposées là-bas...
Une photo remplie de sérénité et d'insouciance... Un moment plaisir.
Gros bisous.
Sit on the street with friends - nice
How lovely this would be Virginia, I love your choice of B&W for this image, so tres French!
