Une Maison Dans Les Arbres – Paris

 

 

When I visited the new boutique of Buly 1803 (see my blogpost about the Parfume House here) in Paris, I discovered this amazing flower boutique. Buly 1803 concept store opened their doors in the 3e arrondissement of Paris in collaboration with other small brands, like Une Maison Dans Les Arbres. The flowers are from Japan, and dried in a special way. The flowers are in great conditions and are very strong. I see them as a timeless gift which contains the exotic flowers of Japan. Also great as your wedding bouquet; the flowers will last for ever.

Najlaa & James wedding in Versailles

Najlaa and James had their dream wedding in Versailles, next to Paris. The lovely couple invited a small group of friends and family who went after the ceremony to a lovely restaurant to have a lunch. It always feels better to meet the couple before the wedding. We did, we met on the wedding of Safia and Reda! And we are living in a small world; James used to live in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, the tiny village I’m from.

Faby Fabulous

Meet my dear Fabienne! We call her Faby, but I think it’s pretty awesome that she is called fab. So for me she’s Fabulouso, Faby, Fab. I LOVE IT. Our heart is melting while we are walking through Saint Germain, talking about our passion for this city. We scrolled by a little band, La Plance A Dixie, yes the very French one at the corner at Deux Margots. We loved it so much that we both bought an oldschool cd. Yes, I still buy cd’s and I love it to have a collection of memories. Music brings people together. Faby and I had more drinks, more talks and ofcourse, my camera was also invited.

Please check her fabulous website, if you are as much in love with Paris as we do! 

 

Wedding in Paris at the Shangri-la hotel

A winter wedding, in the heart of Paris. Honestly, I made a little jump in the air when Safia and Reda asked me to photograph their wedding. It was always be my dream to photograph a wedding in Paris, and this one would be my first one! During our phone call, I already liked Safia. She is very kind and sweet, and wanted me to have a nice day too. And when I saw her wedding dress, I was even more exited for the day. She wore a dress with blue heels like Carry (for all the Sex And The City lovers)! With the flowers in her hair, and the little white fur coat, I was so in love with her outfit. The day could start, and I was very happy.  After the ceremony, the group of friends and family went to the Shangri-la hotel for a lunch and photo session.

 

Paris Shadow Series | Part I

The city of light, is how we also call Paris. It’s a city where the sun is making a special ambiance on the Haussman styled city. She light is pointing out what is beautiful, but also marks the objects which makes Paris so special with shadows. Since I discovered the power of these shadows, I’m looking differently to light. And as you know me, I have to take a photo it. Because it’s just very very beautiful in it’s own way. To be continued…
