Push a door at Place des Vosges and if you're lucky it's open to this charming courtyard.

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.

You are game to push those doors open V.
Looks can be deceiving, certainly should be mystery within.
I like the colour of that door.
je me rappelle, il y a plusieurs années, j'allais à la découverte de Paris * Art Nouveau*. A l'époque il était encore possible de pousser des portes et là, je découvrais des beautés. Maintenant tout est sous code ! Hélas.
