The Eiffel Tower, a favorite place for photo shoots, is taken over by marriage requests. Rose petals, luminous letters, bouquet of flowers, heart-shaped balloons, everything is there to take the perfect photo or video, which will be widely shared on social networks.
Viktoria, a Russian photographer who has been living in Paris for several years, has created a company specializing in these stagings. All of its customers are foreign tourists, who pay an average of 500 euros for the perfect decor, photos and also a bottle of champagne.
This evening, in front of the illuminated tower, it is Pat, a young Australian tourist who comes to kneel on the ground to ask for his soul mate in marriage. This one will have to do it several times so that Viktoria can snap all the possible photos. On the other hand, on the spontaneity or surprise side, it will be necessary to go back. But no problem for this young couple who have been planning their visit to the city of lovers since October.
