Question 1

What is the best moment for a photo session?

Accepted Answer

It's better to start early in the morning for 2 reasons:   - Some of locations are crowded (specialy the Trocadero in front of the Eiffel tower) - The light is better at the sunrise. However it's possible to have a photo session later. In this case I will be pleased to recommande you the best locations.   For the night photo session I prefer to start 45mn before the sunset. This moment is named the blue hour, when the city is lighting with a deep blue sky.

Question 5

What happens if the weather is bad?

Accepted Answer

It can actually be a great opportunity to get some distinctive shots. It usually doesn’t rain for long. And it allows creative and amazing pictures; with many natural effects (puddles create natural mirrors allowing reflection on the floor; rain effects (rain enhances colours after it stops and the sun comes out)...). To see some examples, have a look at my Best of Rain session! If the weather really is too bad, I will always suggest rescheduling the session.
