Designed by Jean Nouvel, the Paris Philharmonic is a photographer’s dream. 

Its steel architecture allows you to play around with the light: waves, reflections, basically a real photographer’s playground! The best time to go there for a photo shoot is in the evening to capture the last rays of sunshine hitting the steel tiles.

If you’re fond of using black and white filters, look no further than the colonnes de Buren columns. 

We love the tall and slim design, which is ideal for perfectionists and those who love symmetric photos. Their differing sizes make you want to look down on them from above, so climb up onto one of them for an artistic break. 

As one of the city’s classic sights, the Pont Alexandre III bridge is a vantage point from which you can take photos that are sure to impress. 

This real icon of classic Parisian architecture has the Grand Palais in the background. Whether by day or night, it looks stunning from any angle. 

The Canal Saint-Martin canal is the perfect photography subject. 

It is versatile and the light always highlights its best side. In spring or summer we love its dense vegetation. Its lush trees bathe your photos in a gentle light. But autumn is the best time of year to appreciate it, with falling leaves giving it a wonderfully melancholic feel. 

When it comes to photography, water is your friend for sure. 

Climb aboard a boat and give a bucolic feel to your photo feed. Right in Paris, the lac de Vincennes lake reflects the daylight onto your face to impart a healthy glow. The added extra? The gentle breeze ruffling your hair.

If you want to glam up your photo sharing account and send your followers to foreign climes, rue Crémieux is perfect. 

They will love the purple, green and blue houses in this street. We love the chameleon look, so we ramp up the contrast, switch lenses and there we are on Burano Island in Venice. 

A unique vintage point providing a spectacular view within the famous art deco dome at Galeries Lafayette in Paris Haussmann.

From a 9-meters long walkway suspended 16meters high in mid-air, you can get right into the middle of the dome from the 3rd floor of the main store. Get ready for an exciting experience and admire 120 years of history, elegance and French lifestyle.  
At Galeries Lafayette Haussman, you'll take stunning photos while shopping!

The terrain Duperré basketball court is an ode to colour. You can capture the beauty of the place In a single shot. 

It’s all about vivid colours, and you can play around with filters to highlight its bold hues. We love taking photos there during a game, to give our news feed a New York vibe. 

Photograph La Butte aux Cailles with your smartphone, because what with its vegetation and flashes of street art, you’ll need to play around with angles.

 We love the idea of happening upon some street art, and especially being on the lookout ready to capture a piece from Miss.Tic. 

Looking down over the city of light, the Arc de Triomphe is THE spot to capture a top down view of Paris. 

We love the idea of having a 360-degree panorama which allows us to play around with shooting angles. The bonus? In winter, the fog and cold can bring out the city’s beauty in black and white shots.
