Weaving Light & Creating A Little Magic ...
A photographer with a difference, producing images which stand out from the norm.
I use vintage lenses on digital cameras (as well as film on occasion) and have a sense for the dramatic, I'm not for everybody, but if you fancy your images having a little something extra, then why not have a look at my work.

Paul asked if he could do a photo shoot with diesel and took stunning pics. Even when diesel was not cooperating.

I used Paul for my new website and products. I found him highly professional and very patient as I had never dealt with photoshoots before and only had some very loose ideas of what I wanted to achieve. His style of photography has proved perfect and I have only had very positive reactions to them. I would be happy to recommend him and am happy to give a reference if required. More...

Awestruck from the very beginning at the way everything is captured with skill but also in a truly artistic and beautiful way. Storytelling photography. I have done a couple collaborative shoots to include my flowers and you could not ask for a lovelier, down to earth, friendly guy and also wonderfully imaginative. Looking forward to collaborating at some point again in the near future. More...

Paul is litterly my favourite photographer to work with.
I have done a few shoots with Paul now and most have been outside on the moors in interesting places.
Paul's super relaxed and likes to keep shots natural, his images are like none else's around and I highly recommend working with him if you want somthing diffrent and real. I Personly love how Paul works with a mix of cameras and old school lenses and he is particle skilled at using his adapted cctv lense to create artistic and intresting shots. Paul does a great job at capturing beauty, and images in his super creative perspective.
Paul is geuinely the nicest tog around :D

I had the pleasure of working with Paul on a photo shoot as we collaborated in Dartmoor. He was such a dream to work with; easy going, had a great eye for shots, and genuinely a good bloke to be around. Since then, I’ve kept a close eye on Paul’s work and he’s only gone strength to strength in his creativity, and has now really mastered very ethereal, atmospheric shots. I’d work with him again in a heartbeat, you won’t be disappointed with the results! More...

Paul took some amazing photographs of our wedding, even though he was a little hesitant to do so at first, I think they're some of the best ones we have of that day. He's incredibly easy to work with and get along with. I would highly recommend him! More...

Shot with Paul on Dartmoor a while ago and plan to shoot again, Paul is a great guy and has a great eye for photography and a unique style.
Communication before and after our shoot was perfect, he was punctual and professional and full of ideas, he supplied some props and outfits for the theme which worked amazingly.
If you want to add something different to your portfolio I highly recommend that you shoot with Paul, not only will you get cool images but you'll have a lot of fun and giggles along the way.
Thank you Paul, look forward to future shoots with you.

We wanted our wedding photos to reflect the relaxed feel of the day and not stiff, awkward poses that made guests feel self-conscious. Paul was brilliant at capturing everyone in a way which made for truly stunning photos. He captured memories and moments in time that we will always treasure and can look back on happily. He captured big wows and tiny details that many would have missed. He worked so hard, from our initial consultation to discuss our requirements, even taking time to make us feel more confident in front of the camera, to the amazing selection of photos afterwards. Thank you for photographing our day so magically and beautifully. Everybody was wowed by your style. More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
There is no secret to taking a great photograph, if you have a good eye and a rudimentary grasp of how a camera works you will eventually take a great photograph ... the trick is to be taking great photographs more often than not.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is the purpose of the shoot?
What are you hoping to achieve?
Do you have any examples of the type of thing you are after?
What do you love most about your job?
Capturing moments.
The outdoors.
Seeing people happy.
What inspired you to start your own business?
So I wouldn't have to answer annoying questions ... oh, hang on ...
Why should our clients choose you?
Luckily photography is a visual format ... so it's actually a simple matter of looking at my stuff and deciding if it is likely to work with your requirements :D
