"In The Midst Of Winter I Found There Was Within Me, An Invincible Summer."


It was a cold, December day in Paris. The weather had predicted rain all week long, and although I had optimistic thoughts that the rain would disappear on the morning of their wedding, these thoughts were not the reality.


Still - I hopped on the metro at around 8:45am + 20 minutes later I was standing in front of Petit Palais in the cold. Quite honestly, Paris in the rain and cold is still Paris...so I had no complaints! But I wondered what Madison + Rémi would think about taking their first look photos in these conditions. Rémi arrived with a smile on his face...it was his wedding day!

He just wanted to see his beautiful bride.


I texted Madison to see how she was and she said she was just a few moments away and she was open to the suggestions I had. Well...we have an umbrella and Petit Palais + Pont Alexandre III bridge was their original location choice. So...let's stick to the plan! Then, Madison arrived.

What happened next tells the whole story, so I'll leave you now and just let you enjoy the effortless beauty that is

Madison + Rémi's wedding day.
