But do keep in mind that there are usually more people in the afternoon and evening as the bridge is a prime spot to catch a Parisian sunset. But with some creativity in camera angles, it’s a great time to capture some creative silhouettes!

2) Trocadéro

The Trocadéro is an ideal place for an iconic honeymoon photoshoot in Paris, with the Eiffel Tower standing majestically in the background. Here, the light is beautiful in the daytime, but during winter months, the sun rises from behind the Tower which creates a very flattering backlight.

As one of the most iconic spots in Paris, it is also one of the busiest places in the city where people gather to watch the sunset and the Eiffel Tower light up. So if you prefer to capture sunset photos, they can usually only be taken during the low season between October and April.

3) Palais Royal

One of the best photography spots in Paris are quaint Parisian cafés. This is where you can capture less formal, “a piece of life” type of photos.
