What’s the experience like?

“Just lean back a little — trust me, it looks natural!” That’s what Phineas said as I tried not to laugh on the Trocadéro steps, feeling half like a movie star and half like I’d trip over my own feet. The Eiffel Tower was right there, but honestly, it was the way the morning air smelled — kind of cool, with a hint of croissants from somewhere nearby — that stuck with me. He somehow found these angles where there weren’t crowds in every shot. I didn’t expect to feel so relaxed in front of a camera (usually I freeze up), but he kept chatting about Paris and showing us how to pose without making it weird.

We moved through three different viewpoints around the Eiffel Tower — first the main square (I think it’s called Place du Trocadéro?), then those famous wide steps where people usually gather for selfies, and finally into these gardens that felt almost secret even though they’re right there. There was this moment when some local kids ran past chasing each other, and Phineas just waited for them to pass before snapping another photo. It wasn’t rushed at all, even though he mentioned he had back-to-back sessions. If you’re late, you lose time — fair enough since he’s got others waiting.

I still think about how easy it felt. He showed us some shots on his camera as we went (I looked less awkward than I feared), and even gave tips on holding hands or where to look so it didn’t feel stiff. Afterward, we grabbed coffee nearby while still laughing about my attempt at a “serious model face.” The photos came super fast too — within a day for previews and then our favorites retouched after that. Honestly, I never thought I’d want professional photos in Paris, but now they’re some of my favorite souvenirs.
