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.

J'adore les ombres dans le photo.
A classic Hotel sign. Now I'm about to hop over to your new store to check out what goodies you have on offer.
Great idea, opening your new print store. Wishing you orders aplenty, dear V. And I love this one, especially the shadow of the lantern. x
I like this one, Virginia. We see the handsome lantern without seeing it.
Good luck with the sales at your store.
Lovely, V!
Wonderful composition, the shadow is beautiful and perfect!

Congrats, I wish you a succesful venture!
What an eye you must have to see and capture this image.
congrats!good luck!
Absolutely love that picture - it shouts Paris.
Lovely shadow play Virginia..good luck with the Etsy Store, your photographs are quintessential Paris!
p.s. flip flops are the only way to go here in summer, black slops are almost a 'cool' fashion statement :)
I'll pop over! Congratulations!
A une époque, à Paris, il y avait des "dessinateurs d'ombres" qui traçait, la nuit, sur les sols, les contours des ombres des "mobiliers urbains" à la lumière des réverbères.
Je ne sais pas si cela existe toujours, mais ta photo me fait penser à cela.
A most excellent shadow, V! And here's hoping business is very brisk over at your Etsy store (where I am headed now).
best of luck Virginie; I know a lot of people who merit much less their Etsy store for photos and I wish you a roaring succes!!!! I'm so glad I've found you sometimes back... :)
bisous, Kiki
@ Alain: Je sais de quoi tu parles, Alain - je n'ai jamais (encore) vu ça en France mais au Canada, j'ai vécu.... c'est chouette!
wish you all the success in the world!
Super shot! I love the shadow.
I love the shade of the lantern!
