Jeannie, I was waiting on someone to ask that question. The first time i was in the Sacre Coeur there were no photo limitations. This last trip, I was looking for friends and didn't walk by the NO PHOTOS sign. I honestly took photos all through and didn't know it wasn't allowed till we left!

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.

Beautiful, V! A very Happy Easter to you --
I don't think you could have found a better photo for today. Happy Easter!
Dazzling, but how the heck did you sneak your camera and get such a good photo! I saw "photo cops" all through Sacre Coeur! That's a treasure!
Happy Easter!

Not only did you manage to take a photograph of this magnificent dome but you managed to do so without masses of people in your frame. Brava V.
Beautiful , thank you for sharing. I don't think I have any photos of inside either.
Beautiful!
