A fine romance ~ Paris Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I recently met the lovely Haydee & Bo, a Peruvian-Danish couple who were celebrating their first trip to Paris together.It’s always fun to explore Paris with visitors … and I really love capturing couples together in the City of Light. Sharing in the magic of their first kiss in the shadow of the Eiffel Tower.

Summer in Paris ~ Paris Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Life sure is crazy this summer. Not only are we adapting to our life as a family of FIVE but we are also preparing for our move back to Sydney.
In case you haven’t heard the news, this time next week we’ll be on A330 bound for Sydney, to start our new life in Australia. After [...]

Sam, Jack & baby Peter ~ Paris Baby Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I always love to meet new faces and especially to meet fellow expats who are having a Paris adventure.  So I was interested to meet Jennie, and her 3 boys for a photo session as we had both just had our third child. Isn’t baby Peter a cutie!

Jennie and her family are from Texas and [...]

Baby Peter ~ Family Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I recently met sweet baby Peter and his family. Peter was only 5 weeks old for our photo session and was such a little cherub - I hardly heard a peep from him. Peter has two older brothers Sam and Jack who are equally as cute. I’ll be posting more images from our photo session [...]

Super cute spots ~ Paris & Sydney family photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Sometimes I arrive at photo sessions and I’m tickled pink when I see what everyone is wearing. The colour combination really makes such a difference to the photos. And sure enough when I met up with this Paris-based family from South Africa I did a happy dance inside my head. Isn’t this dress just the [...]

And the stars aligned ~ Paris & Sydney family photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Recently I’ve been having quite a few sessions at the Eiffel Tower. As soon as the weather warms up it seems to be a popular choice for a lot of families in Paris. A few weeks ago I was all set to meet Jill and her family and a torrential downpour started when we were [...]

Antibes ~ Paris Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Last weekend we were lucky enough to pop down to the Côte d’Azur to see Melody Gardot at the Jazz festival at Juan les Pins. Cheekily we left the ‘big kids’ with their grandparents (who are visiting from Australia) and just had baby Saskia with us. We met up with some good friends from Paris [...]

Au revoir Paris ~ Family Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

After five fabulous years in Paris this month Megan, John and their family are moving back to Sydney, Australia (just one month ahead of us!). Their three gorgeous boys Luc, Noah and Ethan were born in Paris so their stay here has been extra special. Paris will always have a special place in their hearts. [...]

Emily & Doudou ~ Paris Child Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

It always amazes how quickly children grow and it’s SO evident when I get a chance to meet little ones again. I first met Emily when she was one, for her first photo session and I met her again last year when she turned two. She’s now three and I was amazed how much she [...]

Two months already ~ Paris & Sydney Newborn Photographer ~Sarah Gardan Photography

Our darling Saskia is already two months old. Sometimes it seems like yesterday and yet I just can’t imagine a time when this beautiful little soul wasn’t in our lives. Back in the days when I was still pregnant I was a tad worried about having three children. So many people reassured me about how [...]

Lyla & her curls ~ Children’s photographer Sydney ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

There’s nothing better than close girlfriends and I have always been one to enjoy spending time with ‘the ladies’.  I’m still best friends with my two closest friends from high school after all these years which is pretty incredible (Hi Kendall & Ash!!).  When I was recently back in Sydney I took some photos of [...]

Summer in Paris ~ Paris couple photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

One of the things I love about being a portrait photographer is that you get to be part of an international community of photographers.  We check out each others blog, get inspired, exchange ideas and hang out on the same forums. I’m always keen to meet other photographers and so happily met up with Jennifer [...]

Can I let you in on a little secret? ~ Paris & Sydney Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

So I have some rather big news that I wanted to share which is terribly exciting. It also means that our life is going to get a little crazy over the next few months. No, it’s not another baby. (Our little Saskia is only 8 weeks old and just quietly I suspect we will be [...]

French and the City ~ Child Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Goodness life has been so busy recently that my poor blog has been suffering. Behind the scenes I have been enjoying our new baby, having fun with the kids over the summer holidays, making the most of the sunshine and squeezing in some photo sessions in between.  Hope all you frenchies are staying cool - [...]

Eyes wide open ~ Paris newborn photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

It’s no surprise that I have a new little subject and yes, I have managed to have a few little photo sessions with our baby Saskia. Although not as many as I would have liked. Needless to say with two other kiddies, a newborn, endless feeds, cuddles & sleepless nights, it’s pretty hard to [...]
