Tara & Ryan’s Honeymoon photo session lasted 2 days the 2nd day was at Versailles palace and Trianon Palace Hotel. This trip was my second time to Versailles Palace, and I was still overwhelmed. Its hard not to be, the entire palace is filed with framed paintings that could cover my house! I always have a hard time imagining people living there, its no wonder Petit Trianon was built as a getaway for Marie Antoinette. Having the chance to shoot at honeymoon photo shoot at Versailles and around the gardens is very surreal. I am a huge French Revolution buff and I am full of useless facts about Marie Antoinette, so getting the chance to see everything on context was an amazing experience.
This is our very last post on the blog of Tara and Ryan honeymoon photo session adventure for a while, they have had a very nice stay here on our blog, but its finally time for me to start putting together their albums (they have ordered one from each country we visited). Yesterday Tara and Ryan left for Dubai, to move into their new home. Congratulations!!! we can’t wait to see photos of your new place. Stay in touch. (I know you will)

Ryan took this shot of the reflections of chandeliers in Marie Antoinette’s bedroom, I took the same shot when I was there 7 months earlier.
The ceiling fresco in the Bastille Hall, and an ornate doorknob with Louis The Sun King’s face on it.

these pictures are just beautiful. It seems you not only captured Versailles, but the couple. It’s almost like we are evesdropping on them as they enjoy the location.

Tara - Thanks again to Erika for not only being a photographer, but my hair and make-up artist this day as well!!! I couldn’t have done it without you
Stephanie - Wow!!! These pics are fantastic!! I especially love the pictures in the snow. The palace is beautiful, the frescoes remind me of Italy. I also really like the solo pics of Tara with the white headpiece.
