Python Pillow EXIF data not returning

I'm using some sample code trying to return the exif information from a sample .jpg image. The Python code is:

from PIL import Image
from PIL.ExifTags import TAGS

def get_exif(fn):
  ret = {}
  i = Image.open('C:\Users\Me\Desktop\Sample1.jpg')
  info = i._getexif()
  for tag, value in info.items():
    decoded = TAGS.get(tag, tag)
    ret[decoded] = value
  return ret

The code runs with no error, but doesn't output anything. Also, tried to output it to a file, but couldn't write any info out either. Can someone spot why this isn't returning anything? Thank you!

I don't know what you are trying to do but this code works for me (from python 2.7 and 3 onwards) :

from PIL import Image
from PIL.ExifTags import TAGS

def get_exif():
  i = Image.open('/path/to/imagefile.jpg')
  info = i._getexif()
  return {TAGS.get(tag): value for tag, value in info.items()}

print get_exif()
