A passion for storytelling and exploring human emotions are at the core of Paul’s ethos as a photographer/director. He weaves together the stories of people and places with a visual narrative that has captured the attention of commercial brands and fine art enthusiasts alike.
A committed and impassioned collaborator Paul gives every project the highest level of production, unwavering energy, and creative solutions that can only come from decades of experience. Whether he’s in the perfectly controlled environment of a studio, floating over mountain ranges in a hot air balloon, diving in the shark infested waters of Curacao, or waist deep in the frigid waters of Iceland - Paul is a team player and he thrives on the search for an iconic image.
Paul’s goal is to have his images transcend the ordinary and have an impact on the viewer. Paul’s keen awareness of culture, humanity and the human experience shapes his vision and his photography.
“Only if you can put yourself entirely in the other person's place, almost to become the other person for a moment, can you begin to understand and appreciate the forces and pressures to which they are subjected”
Paul has worked for editorial and advertising clients ranging from Robin Hood Foundation and Rolling Stone Magazine, to Maytag, Microsoft, Nike and Under Armour. Each shoot brings its own challenges, but Paul is known for keeping the mood light and positive, while keeping the production on track.
Paul has photographed and documented all manner of elite athletes, business moguls and real people on location and in studio. Paul is a committed collaborator and has the confidence of someone who knows he can get the job done, delivering the greatest number of options with the least amount of stress. The final images are the result of the combined efforts of the creative director, art director, production designers, art department, hair, make-up and wardrobe stylists. Paul lives a life of photography and motion, adventure and music, combining his career as a photographer/ director with his love of sports, rock climbing, extreme skiing, rock, rap and blues. If you don’t find Paul at his studio, you can easily find him with his band, playing guitar trying to write the next big hit.
