As someone who shoots content for both clients and myself, I get it — coming to Paris can feel overwhelming. You want the photos, the vibe, the outfits… and you don’t want to miss a thing.
Here’s your complete guide to getting the most out of your Paris content shoot — from outfit inspo to reels ideas and my personal tips from shooting countless creators here.

Plan Your Outfits

Try to plan your looks at least a week or two before your trip, so you have time to order, try on, and adjust everything. Paris is magical, but it’s not where you want to realize your outfit doesn’t fit or your package never arrived.

Let’s plan everything ahead!

When you book a content shoot with me, whether you’re already active on social media or just starting out — maybe you’re working with brands or dreaming of your first collaboration — it’s always best to plan everything ahead. Let me know how many outfits you’d like to shoot and what kind of aesthetic you love, and together we’ll create the perfect plan to match your vibe and goals.

Example how we planned everything with Ella

Ella is a famous influencer from Germany, she was coming to Paris only for a few days and she needed to shoot a lot! 

Here how we planned everything:

1. She sent me all the outfits she needed to use

2. She sent the inspo of photos and locations she saw from other influencers — so I could plan the route for us

Day 1 

3h shooting around Louvre area golden hours + 2h Eiffel Tower night time

We started near the Louvre area (no pyramids with tourists, just aesthetic part of the city: parks, buildings.) then we had a break to wait until its completely dark, Ella went to change the outfits to the hotel, so we didn’t need to carry bags with us.

We shot with Ella for about 5 hours a day, so she could make the most out of her time in Paris and capture a ton of content.
Yes, it might sound like a lot, but if you’re coming all the way to Paris, it’s so worth it. Think of it as an investment in your social media, your brand, and honestly — in memories you’ll keep forever.
