About me
Hi, I’m Paul.
I like to document life.
I’ve been a photographer for as long as I can remember.
The likes of Colin Prior and Joe Cornish inspired me to get into photography.
The first time I remember picking up a camera was Rock climbing in the English Lake District.
My friends have been telling me since I was a kid that I should be a photographer as I was never without a camera in my hand.
I believe that wedding photography should be relaxed and candid with some set up shots of your loved ones.
When we got married the thing I loved about our wedding photography was how relaxed the photographers made us feel.
My first big success was in 2015 when I became second photographer to Jason Friend, Jason is one of the North Easts top photographers.
After photographing my first wedding I knew at this was something I wanted do. For me, it was kind of a big deal.
Now I’m photographing 10 weddings per year.
A big part of my business is helping couples become more comfortable in front of the camera.
