Paul Gatgens was the best photographer I have ever hired. He was on time. He was instantly able to put my family at ease and capture some captivating photographs. I will treasure them forever. He also followed through on everything he said he would do. I was so pleased with my session and final photographs that I will continue to use him in the future. I highly recommend Paul! More...

Paul was great. I scheduled a family shoot with 14 people. Having 14 people together after years apart was pretty hectic and funny but Paul was able to keep us under control and the shoot on track. We have all had a chance to look at the pictures and all 14 of us are very happy. Thank you Paul from all of us. More...

Paul exceeded our expectations in capturing the most important day of our lives to date. He was the ultimate professional, had creative posing suggestions, and the final photos turned out amazing. Our photos will not only be proudly displayed in our home but will be shared for generations to come. Thank you a million times over! More...
Paulo Cesar
Paul is very attentive in terms of communications. We had a 30 minutes session before the day of the shoot to go over style preferences and what we’re looking for. He captures the moment and as long as you clarify what you want, Paul will relieved to the T:) his pricing is also great! love working with him! More...

When it comes to wedding photography, there’s a whole lot of average, and it’s easy to make the wrong choice. With Paul we very quickly realized that his work was head and shoulders above anything we’d seen before. We drooled over his portfolio and hoped that we’d get something even half as good as the other weddings! We weren’t disappointed at all – the shots we got back were insanely good!! More...
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I think great photography is a mix of technical abilities, and a deep understanding of art principles: composition, color, textures, trends, our human nature, and light. Photography should combine all those elements and be able to capture the moment. My photographies are intended to excel, to offer all the elements for my customers to look at them and feel always surprised.

What inspired you to start your own business?
My family; I had a background in fine arts, philosophy and marketing. It was during my travels ( I love to travel) that I started taking pictures, they pushed me to start taking my photography more seriously. By documenting those moments with my family I started building the idea of what I wanted to do for my clients
Why should our clients choose you?
