ABOUT PAUL

What does a Creative Director do when the agency world just doesn’t fulfill him any more? He takes his talents and uses them for something more fulfilling and lasts more than a six-month ad campaign. In short, he shoots people.

Seriously, I felt like I was on a hamster wheel, hitting the reset button every week. I wanted to pursue something artistic that people truly appreciated for a lifetime… and well, just plain fun!

I love people, exploring their personalities and style. Getting to know the young people I photograph while in an alley, creek bed, farmhouse, tarmac or chicken coop has been more fulfilling than sitting with ad executives trying to figure out how to make people buy stuff they didn’t even know they wanted five minutes before they saw it. I guess that means I value people and relationships… who they truly are.

Let’s face it, we live in a world where being truly genuine… being yourself is truly a scary thought. It shouldn’t be! Being beautiful or handsome starts on the inside… and thats exactly where I begin.

“Outer beauty is inner beauty made visible.”
