AMBLES
Let’s AMBLE together through one of my most revered places in Paris - the Musée Rodin. This is a unique experience of slow wanders and I will point out my favorite pieces in the collection with a bit of fun knowledge and tidbits. While we flâner around the museum and it’s beautiful grounds, I will take a mix of posed and candid photos on my iPhone 15 Pro for you to use for souvenir photos or social media.
WHO: Single female travelers looking to have a private, relaxed tour that combines art and photography. Duos of women are also an option, contact me here for rates and details! I am looking to combine art and photography in an affordable way for those who need quality pictures, but also learn about the famous sculptor and artist that was Auguste Rodin and the Hôtel Biron itself.
WHEN: Choose Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from 10am-11:30am. (The museum is closed Mondays and Wednesdays can be too volatile with school groups coming in and out as most schools in Paris are closed or have half days.) Mornings when they open are essential for the best experience. Contact me here for afternoon possibilities or Saturday rates.
WHAT is included: A two hour one-on-one guided tour with me, Claire, a Paris resident who has a BFA in Art History and an 18 year background in professional styling for film/still/runway shoots and production. 10 edited photographs in your preferred style (moody, bright, natural, etc.) plus the remaining unedited photos and video clips. Photos will take place inside and outside in a variety of locations and in any weather! Chat with me, get to know Paris through one of its best museums, and let me be your human tripod for your photographic needs. 20 min Zoom chat at both parties’ convenience to discuss wardrobe, break the ice, and go over important details prior to the visit.
DETAILS: 125 euro secure payment through Venmo/Paypal or cash on arrival (I will have change if requested!)
LEARN about the Musée Rodin and its treasures while investing in YOUR image!
Choose this AMBLE if you are looking for a fun, relaxed treasure hunt through local brocantes (antique and vintage fairs/markets)!
WHO: One or two female travelers looking to have a low-key, fun atmosphere to browse and search for items on your French antique list!
WHERE: various arrondissements depending on which brocante is going that weekend; I target the local ones, this Amble does not include Marché de Puces de Saint-Ouen, the large one just north of the city. It is vast, generally more expensive, and can be overwhelming. I know several lovely tour guides specified for this one if it is on your list!
WHEN: Choose weekend AM time slots for the best selection and pressure-free buying. The hunt is the most fun part! Contact me here for a bit of what you are looking for.
WHAT is included: A 3 hour guided tour with me, Claire, a Paris resident who has a BFA in Art History and an 18 year background in professional styling for film/still/runway shoots and production, interior displays with Ralph Lauren, and a working knowledge of European antiques and how they can work in your space. I will provide list assistance, carrying of items, and French basics to navigate negotiating/inquiries. I will also assist with advice on quality/price of items and spatial placement of items or gift ideas. Think of me as your treasure guide in every way and our time together can include a coffee if we get finished early! Anytime between 8am-1pm are the best choices.
DETAILS: 200 euro secure payment through Venmo/Paypal or cash on arrival (I will have change if requested!)
