The Louvre Museum
A visit to The Louvre Museum is a must when you’re in Paris. Get there early to beat the crowds and take a few shots before you head into the museum. Once you’ve seen the galleries, grab a coffee with a view at The Café Marly. The coffee is expensive but it’s a perfect spot to relax and soak up the view of the Louvre, coffee and croissant in hand.
Trocadéro
For an amazing view and photo of the Eiffel Tower, make your way to Trocadero, a large square across from the Seine River which offers some of the most iconic photo ops in Paris. There are a number of places to choose from to get your shot, so get there early and take your pick!

Arc de Triomphe
Another iconic Paris monument, you can’t leave the Arc de Triomphe off your list. Get there early (there’s definitely a theme here!) to avoid the crowds and buses that can block your view!

Pont Alexandre III
Whether you’re sightseeing or on the hunt for some photo ops, take a walk from the the Champs-Élysées across the Pont Alexandre III bridge – it’s definitely worth a visit! It’s Paris’s most elegant bridge, built for the Exposition Universelle of 1900. If the bridge itself isn’t photo-worthy enough, its complete with views of the Eiffel Tower in the background!

A Parisian Balcony
For a classic Paris shot, look for a hotel that has a chic Parisian balcony. When you’re done taking photos, soak in the views with a coffee and croissant!
If you’ve been looking at Paris pictures, chances are you’ve seen some shot against the backdrop of the black and white columns at Palais Royal. Buren’s Columns are enclosed within the beautiful courtyard of the Palais Royal and are the perfect Instagram spot! Once you’re done shooting, take a walk through the beautiful nearby gardens.
Montmartre
One of my favourite areas in Paris is Montmartre, a romantic and charming place near the Sacré-Cœur Basilica. On the corner of Rue de l’Abreuvoir sits the heavily Instagrammed La Maison Rose, a cute pink cafe thats a hot spot for photos.
