We have come back from France last week for our pre-wedding photo. This is our first trip in Europe and the reason we choose this place for our wedding photo is the great attractiveness of all those magnificant and historical building. Most importantly, we want to celebrate our new page of life and to make it as a memorable experience for both of us.
It is a blessing to us of making the right decision among so many others to choose from, for having Michel Colson (from Parissnapshot) being our photographer. With his great professionalism and attentiveness in the arrangement, we were managed to take hundreds of quality photo in more than 10 popular spot around Paris within one day. We took photo of both day and night. Louvre museum is speatacular at night. Having the chance to take a professional photo with my evening gown at this splendid place, it%26#39;s something that I%26#39;ve never thought of. At hindsight, I don%26#39;t believe we can easily achieve that without Michel%26#39;s great planning beforehand.
After the one-day photo-shooting in Paris, we also asked Michel going to the Loire Valley, where many renowned and beautiful chateau are located. For taking train, it%26#39;s around 1 and half hour from Paris. The weather was not good that day, it%26#39;s been raining for the whole morning, fortunately, it stopped in the afternoon. However, the bad weather did not affect the photo-shooting at all (except that the gown got really dirty afterwards). The people around were so friendly and delighted, for seeing us taking the wedding photo at this special place. The whole experience was so great and of course, the pictures are lovely and beautiful.
Michel is not only a professional photographer, he is also a great tourist guide. We have spent another half day with him in Paris for taking some causal and spontaneous photo. He brought us to some non-tourist places and with his detail explanation of the historical background, we learnt a lot of the french culture and their way of living in the past. That%26#39;s something we found it very interesting and worth to know.
All in all, we are both very satisfied with Michel Colson%26#39;s professionalism and great service. As he can also speak very fluent in english, which make our life so much easy in France.

We used Paris Snapshot about a month ago and I wrote about it in this forum. We found Paris Snapshot from reading this forum. Someone named Sarahewk used him last fall and published the link to her photos. We thought they were great and decided to try it out. For 150 euros Michel Colson will tramp all over Paris with you, all the while taking your picture. The next day he%26#39;ll bring a CD to your hotel with over a hundred photos. He also prints 4 or 5 for you. We were very pleased and now we have a great record of our trip to Paris! It sure beats the traditional family portrait we would have otherwise taken at home.
I think you can see Chan and Lai%26#39;s pictures on the Paris Snapshot website. You can also see ours. We are the people who are freezing.
Glad to see Michel Colson is finally getting the recognition he deserves for providing a wonderful service at a reasonable price.
