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 [...]

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 [...]

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. [...]

baby aniela ~ le vesinet newborn baby photographer paris ~ sarah gardan photography

There’s something so special about newborn babies and I have to confess that I get REALLY clucky when I see them. It’s fabulous to photograph them as I get to meet such new little souls and to sneak in the occassional cuddle or two into the photo session. And lucky me, a few weeks ago [...]

Sweet little Augustine ~ Child & Family Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

This time last year I met the sweetest little boy Augustine who has the most gorgeous baby blues. So I was pretty excited to see him again for a photo session at the Luxembourg Gardens and to see how much he has grown. I’m a big fan of the Luxembourg Garderns as it is one [...]

Little star Maya ~ English Speaking Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I’ve been looking at little Maya’s images since our photography session last week and I have to confess she has been bringing me so much joy.  One is such a fabulous age to photograph. (Did I tell you I LOVE my job!) It was a freezing morning when we met for a family photo session [...]

Three boys, golden leaves & mischief ~ Family Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan

One of the fabulous things about living in Paris is the change of seasons. Autumn is a beautiful month as all the trees change colour and the golden leaves start to fall. It’s SO beautiful and especially for a Sydney girl like me as the seasons aren’t that dramatic in Australia. A few weeks ago [...]

The ‘Under 2 Jetsetters’ Club ~ Family Photographer Paris ~ English Speaking Photographer

Being an Australian I do quite a lot of international travel between France and Australia. It’s not the easiest thing to do with young children (especially as it is a 24 hour trip to Sydney!!). So I have lot of admiration for families who travel with young children. And I think Jill and her hubby [...]

The ever-so-sweet Marit ~ Paris Baby Photographer ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I met the goregous little Marit last weekend for a Paris themed photo session. And what a fabulous way to kick-start a weekend to photograph this gorgeous little cherub. Isn’t her smile just divine?

Marit and her adoring parents moved here earlier this year from Geneva in Switzerland, although they are originally from Montana in the [...]

The adorable Sasha & Norah ~Photographe d’Enfants Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photograpy

Recently I was lucky enough to photograph the most gorgeous french family at the Bagatelle Parc in Neuilly-Sur-Seine. They received a photo session as a gift from friends and I was excited that they chose me to photograph them. Isn’t that a fabulous idea for a present! I had never been to Bagatelle Parc before [...]

Perfect Pumpkins ~ Family Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Whilst I was in the UK last week I had a somewhat unusual phone call from a family I photographed last year (here’s the littlest man 1 year ago). They wanted some family photos in a pumpkin field but the only thing was the field was about to be harvested and so the session was [...]

La Rentrée ~ Child Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

In France kids start school at the tender age of 3. And after two months of summer holidays today was the first day back to school - La Rentrée. This year our little blondie is going into the Grande Section, his third year of his french maternelle. He was so excited to be going back [...]

The winning family is … ~ Vacation Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I recently challenged two Texan families who I’d photographed on their Paris vacation to a little competition.  The family with the most votes would win a complimentary 11×14 print of their choice. With an outstanding 174 comments in total (most comments on the blog ever!!) I have decided to offer BOTH families a complimentary 11×14 [...]

Escaping the heat ~ English Speaking Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

Recently I met the most lovely family who were visiting Paris from Saudi Arabia. Each year to escape summer temperatures as high as 50°C / 120°F the family visits Paris.  When Rola called me, I was instantly struck by her warmth and I was really looking forward to our photo session. As expected everyone was [...]

A fun little challenge ~ Vacation Photographer Paris ~ Sarah Gardan Photography

I recently met two fabulous families from Texas who were travelling to France together. One Sunday morning during their vacation here they each had a photography session to capture the kids’ first trip to Paris. We started off nice and early (about 7.30am) and finished up about lunchtime. It was so much fun, although I [...]
