Meet mon ami Serge. I really like this portrait of him. Serge and Caroline live in Chalmaison, France. I loved getting to know them this past summer. The dinner we shared in their lovely home was just a very special evening, and one I'll not forget.

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.

Cheers to you Serge!
I think your French experiences have been much better than mine. I'm that guy at the party who's hiding in the corner, hoping no one will try to talk to him.
He looks like he knows his wines, Virginia!
WEll Starman, in Paris the waiters will do just that unless you flag them down. :) Aw now, i want you to get out there and find some French Strangers to photograph just for me!!
Shell, he does!
Marie, :)
And Starman, if we're ever at the same party, never fear, I'll find you ! HA
I've been taking a hiatus and now trying to catch up with all the blogs. Of course yours in the one I most want to read and devour the photos.
Put me in the drawing for the calendar, please.
Hope you have the greatest of holidays ever this year! Hugs.
Serge looks as if he might have memories of WWII. WWII history buff «Louis» would like to hear those stories. That was a horrible time in France, whether in occupied France or Vichy France.
Karen,
Glad to see you back here! You're in girlfriend!
Louis,
You would like Serge very much. Such a nice man with a wonderful sense of humor!
If you find me at the party, be gentle. Their willingness to wait until you call for l'addition, is one of the things I like most about dining in France.
