In the true spirit of elopement, this young American couple wedded in Paris on a two-day whirlwind getaway. I spent two days with them, following them around Paris and documenting the day as they took in the sights. They were married on the second day at the classic American Church in Paris, and concluded their wedding day with a cruise down the Seine, and celebrated by friendly Parisians.
