My name is Jay Swanson - I'm an American writer living in Paris on an artist visa. Paris (yes the one in France) has been my home for years now and I have every intention of staying here for as long as they'll have me. I write science-fiction and fantasy, vlogged daily for 3+ years, and love pizza a little too much. Now I make videos about visiting Paris, traveling in Europe, and try to share what I've learned along the way. I hope you enjoyed what you found.

What wonderful photos he captured of you and also you and Cooper!!

[@jessicabracho8509]

Loved this interview as part of your daily vlog series!

[@agyos]

Love to hear the comparison of experiences between States and Paris. Beautiful visuals, with a sense of real, not manipulated, history….and great photography.

[@andyshacks7812]

Cedric’s space looks amazing and that outside wall is a brilliant backdrop. Those photos he took of you and Cooper are really good ! 👍

[@JaySwanson]

The whole building is amazing

[@ac8907]

I lived in Paris for 20 years. Watching your videos allows me to remember this city and these neighborhoods. TY. Hugs to Coop the best …..

[@JaySwanson]

Happy to share it!

It’s always great when you interview the people you know, who’ve moved to Paris. So interesting! Also, your pictures were really cool!

Thanks for actually showing us Paris...every day!

[@JaySwanson]

My pleasure! I'm lucky it's my back yard

[@mattboggs6304]

The model not showing up is exactly what it is like to be a fashion photographer. LOL. Particularly in the lower echelons of fashion photography.

[@JaySwanson]

Gotta make for a challenging time

[@anastasiafua]

Love this video Jay - great to get to know Cedric and his career as a fashion photographer 🎉 and his insight as a fashion photographer in paris. Great portraits!

Cooper is born to be a Star ❤😊

[@JaySwanson]

Isn't that the truth

[@feddizon2789]

@@JaySwanson Really appreciate you putting effort to respond to your followers comments as I know you’re so busy with your daily blogging and the things that you have to do behind the scenes before uploading your videos. Thank you.🙏 Me and my husband were there in Paris 4 days from Feb 7th. though Feb 10th. And I swear I was hoping that we bump into you on one our walks but of course that didn’t happen as I later found out that you weren’t even there the time we were there. We had a two week European tour and our first stop was Paris and like in the pictures, KZbin, videos and in TV. Paris is so beautiful and so grand….everywhere you look at is so beautiful. The bad part of seeing Paris first during our vacation was we end up comparing Paris to all the places we went and we always said nothing tops Paris at all. We also went to see London, Milan, Rome and Vatican City….. yes we felt like we were in The Amazing Race show, it was very tiring on the feet as we walked and ran so we can go more places to see. And then all good things must come to an end, back to USA, back to reality and back to our daily lives and also currently going through RFV ourselves. Lol 😂. Thank goodness I have your videos to watch and helps me a lot to deal with RVF. As always. Thank you for your daily blogging and most of all thank you for taking great care of little Cooper. He is such a darling and as you probably know by now he is loved by thousands and thousands of your followers. Thank you 🙏

[@PokhrajRoy.]

2:30 Jay is not a model, he’s a ✨ supermodel ✨ Simone Bredariol, you better watch out.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

8:50 I’ve been thinking of a creative space too.

[@rc9272]

[@auntiemjo]

Very interesting hearing from Cedric's point. Too bad the model did not have the courtesy to call if he/she was not going to meet their obligation.

[@rob7819]

What is a pretend Girlfriend?Just curious...

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Cooper must’ve been really working it in front of the camera because they passed out on Jay’s lap.

[@SanTM]

So you're in the friend zone?

[@JaySwanson]

It's the best zone

[@SanTM]

@@JaySwanson HA! Nice
