1. Louvre
A spot that can't be missed when visiting Paris would definitely be the Louvre museum. After or before you have entered the museum you can create all types of photos in front of its beautiful pyramids. We love making content at every moment of the day at the Louvre, by night the lights turn on and it's beautiful for videos. However, during sunset or sunrise you will find a cotton candy sky. Choose the ideal moment yourself! ;-)
2. The stairs of Trocadéro
This is a fun and beautiful spot. You can play around as a couple, but be careful because of the stairs. I'd recommend a sitting position if you're like me afraid of heights.
Practical info: It can get busy here! During morning hours e.g. 5-9 AM it's very calm and you can take as many photos or videos as you want. From 10 AM it will be crowded, so it's better to come early or during the week between 1-3 PM.
3. Banks of Seine
During rain or sunshine, this place is always a good one to go to. We find it hard to tell you when you should, because we visited this spot while it rained in the middle of August. It wasn't crowded at all! However, we just recommend to come either in the morning or during sunset.
4. Rue de l'Universite
This street is the best to create shots with the Eiffeltower right behind you and some perfect green trees (during summer). You can visit this street at any time of the day to be honest, because it's never TOO crowded. There are always people walking in and out of this street, so just set your equipment ready and keep clicking. ;)
5. Avenue de Camoëns
This is a gorgeous spot in the City of Love. If you want to get a good view of the Eiffel Tower and feel as if you are in a French movie, this is your spot. The Eiffel Towers is surrounded by houses and other buildings which makes it even more beautiful.
Be aware that It can get very busy here! During morning hours e.g. 5-9 AM it's very calm and you can take as many photos or videos as you want. From 10 AM the crowd starts coming, so it's better to come early or during the week between 1-3 PM.
6. Lamarck Metro Station
A typical Parisian street that you must visit for the ultimate Paris feeling: Lamarck - Caulaincourt!
It has all you need for an ultimate Paris citizen photo. There are aesthetically beautiful Parisian houses and you can take multiple photos or videos within one location for your socials.
This spot is quite hard to find by car so we suggest to take the tube (Line 12 to Front Populaire) and get out at the metro stop: Lamarck Caulaincourt.
7. Photo Booth Montmartre
Let's capture memories of Paris in a Photo Booth. Go back in time with your partner, friends or family and create a photo roll right here! We recommend to visit this spot during the week so you can take as much photos/videos as you want, because in the weekends it tends to be more crowded.
It's in the area of Montmartre: 53 Rue Des Trois Frères Paris.
Best times to visit: 8-11 am or 5pm-6pm
8. Le Consulat
Le Consulat has such a French look and can be found in the centre of Montmartre: 18 Rue Norvins, 75018 Paris. We recommend to visit this spot during the week so you can take as much photos/videos as you want, but as early as possible. Be aware, during the weekends it can be extremely crowded.
Best times to visit: 7:30 AM -10 AM (the earlier the better)
9. The halls of Louvre
Another great Instagram spot in Paris are The Halls of the Louvre. If you're lucky you can have beautiful sun rays in the halls of Louvre that adds something magical to your photos. However, you can also have fun with an umbrella during the rain.
we recommend to visit this spot as early as possible.
Best times to visit: 7:30 AM -10 AM (the earlier the better)
10. Arc the Triomphe
One of our favorite Instagram spots in Paris is definitely in front of the Arc the Triomphe.
You can never go wrong here when taking photo/videos.
We recommend to visit this spot as early as possible.
Best times to visit: During sunsets in summer from 4:30 AM - 9 AM (the earlier the better)
During sunsets in winter: 8 AM - 8:30 AM
11. Le Petit Palais
The door of Le Petit Palais is one of the most beautiful entrances in Paris. It's definitely worth to wait for sunset to take a photo here. If you have the time buy a ticket and get inside. It's beautiful and there's a huge garden filled with beautiful plants. Both in and outside are worth a visit.
We recommend to take go during summer, because it's less crowded on the inside. Also, if you want to take photos during sunset just eat something and pass by again. The sun sets beautifully upon the door.
Best times to visit: During sunsets in summer from
9-9:45 PM (the earlier the better) or sunrises 4:30 AM - 6:30 AM
