Updated Paris for Singaporeans page

Added a new part to the page:

9. This is for wedding photographers:
a. Hair+makeup stylist is unheard of. We also don’t know any hair/makeup stylist here, bring your own.
b. Best way to move around is via taxi when the bride is in a gown. You can book a taxi for the day. If you are adventurous, go for the metro.
c. Here are the locations that’ll look good for photography: Lourve, Hotel De Ville, Eiffel Tower, Seine River, Champ Elysees – Arc de Triomphe, Pont Des Artes, Tuileries Garden, Luxembourg Garden, Butte Charmont Garden, Sarcre Coeur Basilica on Montmartre, Versailles (30-45min out of Paris by train), Mont St. Michel (not in Paris, it’s in Normandy).
d. Some of the parks/gardens open at 8-9am and close by 9pm-ish, watch out for closing time.
e. Best time to come is from April (to about September. Daylight is approx from 7am+ to about 9pm+ in summer. There’s loads of light.
f. There’s lots of dog poop in some areas. Make sure the everybody (esp the bride) has the poop radar on.
g. You can rent cameras/lenses if something goes kaput.
